Hi I’m using the PDE toolbox (unified workflow) to model electromagnetics (DC conduction). I’m working with a material that is anisotropic in its conductivity, ie. it has a conductivity of = 0.6 S/m in the x-direction and = 0.087 S/m in the y-direction. Right now it seems I can only set isotropic conductivity using the code below, where the conductivity is set to 0.6 S/m in all directions:
model.MaterialProperties(1) = materialProperties(ElectricalConductivity=0.6,RelativePermittivity=4.96e4);
I know you can use function handles to alter the way that the material property is applied spatially, but how would someone do this for properties that depend on the direction (x or y)?
Thanks for the help.Hi I’m using the PDE toolbox (unified workflow) to model electromagnetics (DC conduction).
