***************************** Electromagnetic Incident Wave ***************************** :: Electromagnetic Incident Wave = {model_name} {float} [] ----------------------- **Description / Usage** ----------------------- This is to specify the incident wave for boundary conditions and post processing. This should probably be the same for all materials. PLANE_Z_WAVE * magnitude :math:`E_0` Plane wave polarized in Z, propagating in the x direction: :math:`(E_inc)_x = E_0 exp(i\omega z)` ------------ **Examples** ------------ Following are sample cards: :: Electromagnetic Incident Wave = PLANE_Z_WAVE 1. ------------------------- **Technical Discussion** ------------------------- This is used to set an incident wave for time-harmonic Maxwell problems, currently done through the absorbing boundary condition, and used in post processing the scattered and incident wave. -------------- **References** -------------- No References.
