My latest post is about using boundary conditions to assume symmetry in a finite element electrostatics problem.

To demonstrate Neumann boundaries I solve the Laplace equation for a coaxial geometry using 1/4 of the cross section. I then find the fields of a differential pair transmission line using half the cross section and a Dirichlet boundary.

This is all done with FEniCS, the open source finite element solver. #physics #python #opensource #ham #radio​ #fenics
