Re: [Meep-discuss] doubt regarding subpixel averaging behaviour

Dear Filip,

ok, thanks for your answer. I will try to check   if this affects the
results or the behaviour of the full simulation.

[Meep-discuss] doubt regarding subpixel averaging behaviour

2015-09-21 Thread Pablo Díaz Núñez

Dear meep users,

I have encountered a strange behaviour of subpixel averaging when 
running meep-mpi. Working at one node with 8 processors, if I do the 
simulation with 7 processors or less, subìxel averaging performs as it 
should be, but if I choose the 8 processors it won't work even 
eps-averaging is set to true.


Does someone know why this happens?

Thanks in advance,
Pablo.

[Meep-discuss] Error installing meep-1.3

2015-04-14 Thread Pablo Díaz Núñez

Dear meep users,

I'm trying to install meep-1.3 in OS X 10.6.8 but it's failing.
I'm using Guile 1.6 via macports, harminv 1.4 and libctl 3.2.2 from 
source. The error occurs when making meep, at meep_wrap.o and it says 
that most 'scm_' variables are not declared, for example, this is the 
first of the long list of errors I get:


  CXX  meep_wrap.o
meep_wrap.cxx: In function ‘char* 
SWIG_Guile_scm2newstr(scm_unused_struct*, size_t*)’:

meep_wrap.cxx:821: error: ‘scm_is_string’ was not declared in this scope
meep_wrap.cxx:823: error: ‘scm_to_locale_string’ was not declared in 
this scope


I don't really know how I can solve this and I did not have any problem 
installing previous versions of meep.


Thanks in advance,
Pablo.

[Meep-discuss] Differential Scattering Cross Section

2014-08-28 Thread Pablo Díaz Núñez

Dear meep users,

I'm interested in calculate the differential scattering cross section of 
a metal nanoparticle in meep. By now I understand reasonably well how to 
calculate the cross section, but not sure how should I calculate the 
differential scattering cross section.


Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Pablo.

[Meep-discuss] epsilon-input-file doubt

2014-05-05 Thread Pablo Díaz Núñez

Dear Meep users.

I want to simulate a silicon structure that includes material 
dispersion. Then I will modify this structure in a series of simulations 
but keeping the changes done before, so I want to use the 
epsilon-input-file funcition. My doubt is, ¿does the eps.h5 file keep 
the susceptibilities that were defined for the first simulation in the 
silicon structure when epsilon-input-file is used?


Thanks in advance.
Pablo.

[Meep-discuss] silica dispersion model

2014-02-26 Thread Pablo Díaz Núñez

Dear meep users.

I need to use the dispersion model for fused silica in my simulations. 
Since these physics are quite new to me, I'm not sure how I should 
calculate the parameters for the lorentzian model. Could someone point 
me in the right direction or tell me about any literature I could check?


Thanks in advance.
Pablo.
