For accurate and reliable simulations, numerical procedures should be tested not only for individual com- ponents, but also within the framework of complete systems. With this aim, this paper presents a benchmark test case based on experimental measurements coming from direct-current injection tests in the SIVA unmanned air vehicle, reproduced by a numerical finite-difference-time-domain solver that employs a new subgrid- ding scheme to treat lossy composite thin panels. Validation was undertaken by applying the feature selective validation method, which quantifies the agreement between experimental and numerical data. 2018-04-18T06:04:24Z 2018-04-18T06:04:24Z 2017 info:eu-repo/semantics/article Ruiz Cabello, Miguel; et. al.
