Assigning an Independent Boundary for a 2D Magnetostatic Solver

Independent and dependent boundaries enable you to model planes of periodicity where the Magnetic Field at every point on the dependent boundary surface is forced to match the Magnetic Field of every corresponding point on the independent boundary surface.

To set a independent boundary:

1. Select the edge to which you want to assign the independent boundary.
2. Click Maxwell 2D > Boundaries > Assign > Matching > Independent.
   The Independent Boundary dialog box appears.
3. Enter a name for the boundary in the Name box, or accept the default.
4. To reverse the direction of the vector, select the Reverse Direction check box.
5. Click OK.
