  • Abstract
    A finite-element method is presented in which the magnetization is linearly interpolated within each tetrahedral element and the magnetostatic interaction is accurately obtained by integration. The equilibrium magnetizations at the nodal points can be found by minimizing the total energy of the system. Two different minimization schemes are compared
