Modern map-based accelerator beam-dynamics codes model magnetic elements so as to include nonlinear effects and realistic fringe fields, but they persist in modeling rf cavities as either energy kicks or linear maps. This work presents a method for including the nonlinear effects of rf cavities in a map-based code.
