Class EddyCurrentsMonopoleAnimation

java.lang.Object
  simulations.animations.faradaysLaw.EddyCurrentsMonopoleAnimation

public class EddyCurrentsMonopoleAnimation

extends java.lang.Object

An animation of eddy currents in a conducting plane below a moving monopole, for various values of the speed of the monopole, following Saslow. This class has a main method and is used to generate the sequence of images for the experiment. It also defines the number of frames, the time step between each frame, the colorizing of the images, the folder where the image files will be stored, and so on. This animation generates Figure 3 of Liu and Belcher 2007 and part of Figure 4 of the same paper.
