What do you think all the EM simulators are based on?  All those EFIEs and
MFIEs used in MoM codes, etc., are just specialized cases of Maxwell's
equations (i.e. some of the terms are zero, by virtue of the constraints on
the problem)..  So, the simple answer to the question is: Yes, they are
amenable to numerical analysis.. and you've been doing it, without even
knowing it!
