Abstract

This paper presents the numerical computation and visualization of electromagnetic fields using the MATLAB based integrated programming language (IPL): ACVEM-a computer aided teaching and learning (CAT/CAL) tool is developed by using IPL for engineering courses. A modularized interactive computation system is designed and built into ACVEM, where a number of numerical methods such as FDM, FEM, MOM and BEM are employed as the numerical computation modules. Two-dimensional and three dimensional static, quasi-static field and wave propagation problems can be solved and visualized by using this integrated programming language.
