Insulating the Vacuum. Calculating the Casimir force using the boundary integral method with von Neumann boundary conditions
Utheim, Marius (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2016-08-15)In 2012, a new method for calculating the Casimir force between compact objects was developed, expressing the force in terms of a boundary integral equation. The case of perfectly conducting objects with Dirichlet boundary conditions in two dimensions was treated by Isak Kilen. The method was later extended to three dimensions by Karl Øyvind Mikalsen. The contribution of this thesis will be to ...
