enizimus/femlab

Matlab tool for electromagnetic field calculation using the finite element method.

FEMLab

Current state :

Solver :

• Electrostatic planar and axissymmetric problems
• Stationary current planar and axissymmetric problems
• Magnetostatic planar and axissymmetric problems
• 1D and 2D triangular Elements for all problem types
• Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions for all problem types and Elements

Postprocessing :

• Display of calculated values depending on selected problem
  • Electrostatic : V, E, D
  • Stationary current : V, E, J
  • Magnetostatic : A, B, H
  • For vector values :
    • Abs, Abs mesh, Quiver, Slice, Field lines - plots
  • For scalar values :
    • Abs, Abs mesh, Slice - plots
  • Additional options
• Calculate field or potential along a curve defined by a list of points and the total number of points to interpolate
• Calculate field or potential for selected mesh (zoom in and out)
• Calculate energy for selected region :
  • Electrostatic
  • Magnetostatic

Some examples :

Electrostatic planar (Cylindrical charge) :

Electrostatic axissymmetric (Spherical charge) :

Stationary current field (Metal plates) :

Magnetostatic planar (Long wire in plane) :

Magnetostatic axissymmetric (Solenoid) :

femlab's Issues

Octave compatible?

Compatible to free matlab clone octave?
No license is needed for octave.

If yes, please extend your info in Readme with Octave Version. Actual Version of Octave is 7.2.
if unknown, untested with octave, info about this also nice.
if no, it is also ok. Some commands are not compatible in octave.

So you are the expert. Perhaps you can make a fast test run.
Here some last infos about octave.
