Maxwell

CheckPointsMediumFromFile
Section: Maxwell
Type: logical
Default: no

Whether to re-calculate the points map by artificially shrinking the coordinate system by a factor of 0.99 to check if the points inside the medium surface are properly detected. This works for only one medium surface which is centered in the origin of the coordinate system.


LinearMediumBoxFile
Section: Maxwell
Type: string

File in OFF format with the shape of the linear medium.


LinearMediumBoxShape
Section: Maxwell
Type: integer

This variable defines the shape of the linear medium box. The default is medium_parallelepiped.
Options:


LinearMediumBoxSize
Section: Maxwell
Type: block

Defines center and size of a parallelepiped linear medium box.

Example:

%LinearMediumBoxSize
   center_x | center_y | center_z | x_length | y_length | z_length
%


LinearMediumEdgeProfile
Section: Maxwell
Type: integer

Defines the type of numerical approximation used for the derivatives at the edges of the medium box. Default is edged. When the box shape is read from file, only the edged profile is supported.


Options:


LinearMediumProperties
Section: Maxwell
Type: block

Defines electromagnetic parameters for a linear medium box.

Example:

%LinearMediumProperties
   epsilon_factor | mu_factor | sigma_e | sigma_m
%


Permittivity factor, permeability factor, electric conductivity and magnetic conductivity of the medium box.


Maxwell::Coordinates

MaxwellFieldsCoordinate
Section: Maxwell::Coordinates
Type: block

The Maxwell MaxwellFieldsCoordinate block allows to output Maxwell fields at particular points in space. For each point a new line with three columns has to be added to the block, where the columns denote the x, y, and z coordinate of the point.

%MaxwellFieldsCoordinate
   -1.0 | 2.0 | 4.0
   0.0 | 1.0 | -2.0
