We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Say I have a simple dipole simulation, like above. I want to add two more electrodes to the field, say one at (10,50,0) and another at (10,-50,0). Then I want to put a known impedance between them, so I can measure the current through the element and the effect on the field. Alternatively I could put one at (10,50,0) and one at (10,1000,0) and see the effect of a connection to a 'distant' part of the simulation. Maybe a computationally more effective solution would be to set a boundary with a known impedance to a fixed voltage. These seem like trivially obvious applications for Maxwell but I haven't been able to find any examples.Â
