Solving Maxwell's equations in 3D and 2D by means of MAFIA [MAxwell's equations by the Finite Integration Algorithm]

Creators

  • 1. Technische Hochschule Darmstadt (Germany, F.R.)

Description

The acronym MAFIA stands for the solution of MAxwell's equations by the Finite Integration Algorithm. This is the name given to a set of fully three-dimensional codes widely used in the computer-aided design of accelerators and rapidly finding application in many other areas such as tomography and the design of integrated circuits, filters and resonators. Two dimensional versions are also included in the package. The programs solve Maxwell's equations in their integral form and produce a set of matrix equations which are then solved. A description of MAFIA is given along with its hardware and software requirements
