| Popis: | The conventional scattering analysis of perfectly conducting plates neglects the scattering contribution of the rim in the discretization of the Electric-Field Integral Equation. This so-called thin-plate scheme manages many less unknowns than the full approach, arising from modelling the whole plate, with acceptable accuracy in many practical applications. A recent approach, so-called thick-plate, has proved to show similar accuracy as the full scheme, also in those cases where the thin-surface fails; namely, the scattering analysis of thick enough plates, especially under oblique incidences, with low grazing angles. In this paper, we reveal how the thick-plate scheme shows improved computational times, especially in large scale computations, as compared to the full approach. Also, we discuss how the thick-plate analysis is amenable to parallelization, thereby leading to computational times comparable with the thin-surface approach.
