Electrostatic Solver

The electrostatic field simulator computes static electric fields in 2D or 3D due to

• stationary charge distributions.
• applied potentials.

The quantity for which the electrostatic field simulator solves is the scalar electric potential, F; the electric field (E-field) and the electric flux density (D-field) are automatically calculated from the potential. Derived quantities such as forces, torques, energy, surface charge density, and capacitance matrix may be calculated from these basic field quantities.
