Abstract

A set of computer programs designed for research and educational objectives in the analysis of low frequency electric and magnetic field phenomena is described. These programs are developed around a standard and easily extensible user interface, run on both PC-compatible and X window platforms, and offer the user a wide range of analysis tools. They are capable of solving Poisson´s equation for arbitrarily shaped axisymmetric and two-dimensional geometries
