Generalized Impedance Boundary Conditions

This paper is dedicated to the construction and analysis of so-called Generalized Impedance Boundary Conditions (GIBCs) for electromagnetic scattering problems from imperfect conductors with smooth boundaries. These boundary conditions can be seen as higher order approximations of a perfect conductor condition. We consider here the 3-D case with Maxwell equations in a harmonic regime. The construction of GIBCs is based on a scaled asymptotic expansion with respect to the skin depth. The asymptotic expansion is theoretically justified at any order and we give explicit expressions till the third order. These expressions are used to derive the GIBCs. The associated boundary value problem is analyzed and error estimates are obtained in terms of the skin depth.
