Spherical Shell

From openEMS

Description

The spherical shell primitive is defined by its central point, radius and thickness. It is created with

 CSX = AddSphericalShell(CSX, propName, prio, center, rad, shell_width, varargin)

with the following parameters:

• CSX: The original CSX structure
• propName: name of the assigned property
• prio: priority of the primitive
• center: coordinate of the center point of the sphere
• rad: radius of the spherical shell
• shell_width: thickness of the shell
  • the inner radius of this shell is rad-shell_width/2
  • the outer radius of this shell is rad+shell_width/2
• varargin: a key/value list of primitives variable arguments

Example

• Create a metal sphere at (0,0,0) with radius 50 and thickness 10:

CSX = AddMetal(CSX,'metal'); %create PEC with propName 'metal'
CSX = AddSphericalShell(CSX,'metal',10,[0 0 0],50,10);
