Feature enhancement: Material module #2

Open kannesito opened 3 years ago

kannesito commented 3 years ago

A module that reads material parameters, for instance from a HDF5 file that holds permittivity ε, el. conductivity σ, magn. permeability μ values of each grid point, would be a great enhancement. Thereby the TSS-FDTD algorithms error behavior in the presence of objects (spheres, cylinders, etc. ) that are prone to FDTD stair-case approximation errors, could be tested and evaluated. Is there anything planned?

Thank you, Kannesito, for your suggestion. It is a very good idea to add this feature. I am downloading the HDF5 library and starting to add it to the software package. Could you please give me a specification of how these space related data, permittivity ε, el. conductivity σ, magn. permeability μ values of each grid point, are stored in HDF5?
