Method Detail

Evolve

public void Evolve(double dt)
Description copied from class: BaseObject
Evolves the object by the amount of time 'dt'.

Overrides:
Evolve in class BaseObject
Parameters:
dt - the time step

Efield

public Vec3 Efield(Vec3 x,
                   Vec3 E)
Description copied from class: BaseObject
Sets 'E' to the value of the electric field at 'x'. 'x' is not modified. Returns: resulting 'E'

Specified by:
Efield in class BaseObject
Parameters:
x - the position of the observer
E - the electric field at the observer's position
Returns:
E the electric field at the observer's position

Bfield

public Vec3 Bfield(Vec3 x,
                   Vec3 B)
Description copied from class: BaseObject
