Talk:Computational electromagnetics

Clean up
My additions are ugly. But I believe there are enough search terms now that someone with more passing familiarity than I can do some work on getting:


 * A good, solid, wikified definition
 * Make sense about what belongs and doesn't

It might look like I added too much, but this is definately a work in progress. Hopefully this catches someone's eye... Lsjzl 22:11, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

Merging FEKO into this Article
There was a suggestion to merge the FEKO article with this one. I don't think that this should be done. FEKO is a specific commercial software product for CEM. I don't think we are planning on merging the articles for all the other codes, are we? However, since FEKO is a fairly common code it may not be a bad idea to mention it somewhere with a link to the main article. What would probably be the most useful is a section comparing some of the major CEM software with perhaps a chart summarizing their features. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.35.75.163 (talk) 15:11, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

Free/OS FDTD software links
I'd like to remove links to gfdtd and bigboy. Bigboy haven't released anything yet, and gfdtd looks pretty incomplete. Does anyone mind? Arthurtech 18:43, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Oktal-se rcs 3dobj 35ghz.jpg
Image:Oktal-se rcs 3dobj 35ghz.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Choice of methods
(moving here discussion under Computational electromagnetics: Discussion of which method is chosen when should go here. Integral equation solvers versus differential equation solvers.  When and why to use high-frequency approximations.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.138.43.211 (talk) 10:31, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

Merger proposal

 * Okay, I'll bite... Why? (In language that editors who aren't electromagnetic physicists might understand, if possible! It's not obvious to lay editors.) // ⌘macwhiz (talk) 01:16, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for biting :-) The reason for my proposal is that the two articles cover the same ground, namely computational methods of solving Maxwell's equations. Woz2 (talk) 02:42, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

Maxwell equations in hyperbolic PDE form
The article states Maxwell's equations as:


 * $$\frac{\partial}{\partial t}\bar{u} + A\frac{\partial}{\partial x}\bar{u} + B\frac{\partial}{\partial y}\bar{u} +C\bar{u} = g$$

Someone please add the definition of $$g$$ in the above equation. DreadRed (talk) 09:30, 14 December 2012 (UTC)
