Electromagnetic scattering by multiple perfectly conducting arbitrary polygonal cylinders

We analyze the scattering by multiple perfectly conducting cylinders with arbitrary polygonal cross-section. The proposed method is very efficient as few expansion functions are needed in a Galerkin scheme. This is achieved by means of the analytical regularization of the problem obtained by factorizing the correct edge singularity of the electromagnetic field. A particular attention has also been paid to the numerical computation of the integrals involved, and formulas for their accurate and quick evaluation are given.
