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.

What are the default boundary conditions in different solvers?

      In 2D: Region boundaries: No default boundary conditions, vector potential or balloon is needed. (In electric solver with voltage excitation no boundary condition needed). Boundaries between the objects: So called natural boundary condition is applied by default – normal component of B is continuous over the interface in magnetic solvers, and normal component of D changes by the amount of surface charge density over the interface in electric solvers. In 3D: Region boundaries: So called Neumann boundary condition is applied – H is tangential on the region boundaries in magnetic solvers and E is tangential on the region boundaries in electric solvers. Boundaries between the objects: Same as in 2D.
