Implementation of finite-difference time-domain method to model electromagnetic field propagation in Python, with CUDA support. This is my final project for the computational lab PHYC20013 at the University of Melbourne in 2020.
emsystem.py: Classes and functions for CPU use.emsystem_gpu.py: Classes and functions for CUDA use.- Note: Only support GPUs with CUDA capability.
Examples.ipynb: Example applications
The project depends on the following Python packages:
- numpy
- matplotlib
- (for CUDA) numba
The following software is required for quality animation generation:
- ImageMagick
- Download: https://imagemagick.org/script/download.php
- Remember to check the option 'Install legacy utilities (e.g. convert)' during the stage 'Select Additional Tasks' when installing
Below are some animations made in Examples.ipynb. The electric and magnetic fields are represented with red and blue quivers respectively.
