Abstract

The FLUX3D software is a package for three-dimensional analysis of electric and magnetic fields based on the classical components, including pre- and post-processor, mesh generator, and solver. FLUX3D is built on a database management system which allows several possibilities of connection of each component with external packages. Each component includes specific capabilities which enhance the use of FLUX3D. The main aspects of the architecture, entities, domain of computation, facilities and the various commands are described, and some illustrative examples are presented.
