Pulsed coil current distribution -- open source EM FEM
I was hoping to be pointed in the right direction. I wanted to model the current density distribution in a single turn pulsed coil that will carry 100KA. From that I can calculated things like joule ...

Do meshfree FEM techniques offer any advantages for electromagnetic solvers for problems with dielectric and ferromagnetic regions?
It is straightforward to apply standard FEM methods to static electromagnetic problems which involve electrically and magnetically polarizable materials. In some cases a challenge is getting the ...

Why does MOM fail for large number of subdivision for finite dipole?
In Constantine A. Balanis' book about antennas, he introduced the method of moments for current distribution over a finite dipole. I found that the method of moments works very bad for a half-...

Does the method of moments works for wave-length dipole?
In Constantine A. Balanis book about Antenna, he introduced the method of moments for current distribution over finite dipole. However, I found that the method of moments works well for a half-...

FDTD boundary condition that replicates an infinitely thin mirror
I'm currently running a 1-D FDTD simulation where I want to model a dielectric mirror (with an anti-reflection coating on one side but let's keep it simple for now). For my purposes, the mirror can be ...

Is my differential equation solving code wrong?
I am trying to simulate LLG equation without damping. The equation is $$\frac{d\vec{m}}{dt} = \vec{m}\times\vec{H}$$ I am solving in spherical coordinates as LLG equation is known to have problems in ...

In electromagnetic simulation, how much does the feed model impact an antenna's directivity performance and E-field phase readings?
Question: How much would a simplified feed model in an EM simulation alter an antenna's directivity and the E-field phase reading when compared to using a more complicated/realistic feed model? I am ...

Spectral Intensity of complex signal
I'm simulating an electromagnetic wave that has a real and imaginary part. Something like: $$ E(x,t) = A(x,t) e^{-i(\omega t - k x)} $$ Where $A(x,t)$ is some complex amplitude. Then taking the ...

Stress and periodic boundary conditions
In the textbook definition of the stress tensor it is defined at each point in space and therefore position dependant. When three dimensional periodic boundary conditions are used, I have seen it ...
