Electromagnetic metamaterials (MMs) are artificial composites that exhibit exceptional physical characteristics. Their design, which relies on the retrieving of the effective medium parameters, is usually a very time-consuming process because of the high number of full-wave simulations involved in this task. To alleviate the related computational burden, we propose to use a Multi-fidelity Surrogate Modelling (MFSM) approach. Numerical results demonstrate that this methodology turns out to be promising for a quick evaluation of the scattering parameters from which the effective constitutive parameters of a MM are retrieved, as shown by two numerical examples.

Abstract
Electromagnetic metamaterials (MMs) are artificial composites that exhibit exceptional physical characteristics. Their design, which relies on the retrieving of the effective medium parameters, is usually a very time-consuming process because of the high number of full-wave simulations involved in this task. To alleviate the related computational burden, we propose to use a Multi-fidelity Surrogate Modelling (MFSM) approach. Numerical results demonstrate that this methodology turns out to be promising for a quick evaluation of the scattering parameters from which the effective constitutive parameters of a MM are retrieved, as shown by two numerical examples.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
