mufem documentation¶

Introduction¶

mufem does electromagnetic simulation: electrostatics, magnetostatics, time-domain and time-harmonic magnetics, and full Maxwell problems. It also couples thermal and structural physics where they matter.

mufem has many examples and validation cases. These include the Compumag TEAM benchmarks, induction-heating studies, motor and transformer sector models, and other reference problems from the electromagnetics, thermal, and structural literature. You can find them at github.com/Raiden-Numerics/mufem.

mufem is a Python library. You use it to set up and run simulations, from quick parameter sweeps to large multiphysics campaigns. It uses the MFEM finite-element framework. mufem has no GUI. External tools such as gmsh and ParaView do the mesh generation and visualization.

Do you use an AI assistant? A simulation is only a Python script, so an AI coding assistant can set one up for you.
