Electromagnetic simulation tools
|
|
|
|
This package is intended for building simulation inputs, analyzing
|
|
simulation outputs, and running short simulations on unspecialized hardware.
|
|
It is designed to provide tooling and a baseline for other, high-performance
|
|
purpose- and hardware-specific solvers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Contents**
|
|
- Finite difference frequency domain (FDFD)
|
|
* Library of sparse matrices for representing the electromagnetic wave
|
|
equation in 3D, as well as auxiliary matrices for conversion between fields
|
|
* Waveguide mode operators
|
|
* Waveguide mode eigensolver
|
|
* Stretched-coordinate PML boundaries (SCPML)
|
|
* Functional versions of most operators
|
|
* Anisotropic media (limited to diagonal elements eps_xx, eps_yy, eps_zz, mu_xx, ...)
|
|
* Arbitrary distributions of perfect electric and magnetic conductors (PEC / PMC)
|
|
- Finite difference time domain (FDTD)
|
|
* Basic Maxwell time-steps
|
|
* Poynting vector and energy calculation
|
|
* Convolutional PMLs
|
|
|
|
This package does *not* provide a fast matrix solver, though by default
|
|
```meanas.fdfd.solvers.generic(...)``` will call
|
|
```scipy.sparse.linalg.qmr(...)``` to perform a solve.
|
|
For 2D FDFD problems this should be fine; likewise, the waveguide mode
|
|
solver uses scipy's eigenvalue solver, with reasonable results.
|
|
|
|
For solving large (or 3D) FDFD problems, I recommend a GPU-based iterative
|
|
solver, such as [opencl_fdfd](https://mpxd.net/code/jan/opencl_fdfd) or
|
|
those included in [MAGMA](http://icl.cs.utk.edu/magma/index.html)). Your
|
|
solver will need the ability to solve complex symmetric (non-Hermitian)
|
|
linear systems, ideally with double precision.

|
- numpy
|
|
- scipy
