Abstract: We present a generalization of standard leap-frog plus Yee mesh approach for Cauchy problem in electrodynamics simulations on unstructured triangulated mesh. The presented approach still inherits from finite-difference time-domain and do not use techniques developed in finite-volume time-domain approach. In the paper the whole flow from mesh creation to actual simulation is presented. The proposed computation flow is parallel ready and can be implemented for distributed systems (computation servers, graphical processing units, etc.). We studied the influence of non-regular triangulation on stability and dispersion properties of numerical solution.

Keywords: numerical approximation and analysis, mathematical methods in physics, computational electromagnetic methods.
