Accurate and efficient solutions are performed by employing a parallel implementation of the multilevel fast multipole algorithm. The effectiveness of the implementation is demonstrated on a sphere problem containing more than 33 million unknowns, which is the largest integral-equation problem ever solved to our knowledge.EnglishComputational electromagneticsIterative solutionsLarge-scale problemsMultilevel fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA)ParallelizationSurface integral equationsFast and accurate solutions of extremely large integral-equation problems discretised with tens of millions of unknownsArticle10.1049/el:200706391350-911X
