Abstract
In this paper, we study high order methods for solving the time domain Maxwell equations using spline finite elements on domains defined by NURBS. Convenient basis functions for the discrete exact sequence of spaces introduced by Buffa et al. (Comput. Methods Appl. Mech. Eng. 199:1143-1152, 2009) are exhibited which provide the same discrete structure as for classical Whitney Finite Elements. An analysis of stability of the time scheme is also developed.
