- Formulation with Higher-Order Hierarchical Basis Functions for Nonsimply Connected Conductors

Figure 2

(a) Let us consider a cross section of the example in Figure 1(b). (b) The thick black edges belong to the thick cut (i.e., to the support of the representative of the cohomology generator ). The coefficients assigned to thick edges are such that , where is the restriction of to , and that the circulation on all discrete cycles linking the conductive torus like is .
