Hi, I want to calculate the total energy in my simulation for every step. I am using the function fields::total_energy() The problem is that it runs veeery slowly. It takes several times more time than the actual step takes ! Is there any other way to calculate the energy faster ? It would be very useful. I know it is possible because I am using paralelly with meep a photonic crystal simulation written in Fortran and there the calculation of energy is a side product of the actual FDTD calculation so the energy data is simply available for every step without any additional overhead. Is there something like that in meep ?
Thank you for any help, Thomas Jefferson _______________________________________________ meep-discuss mailing list meep-discuss@ab-initio.mit.edu http://ab-initio.mit.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/meep-discuss
