*ELECTROMAGNETIC
Electromagnetic response based on harmonic excitation.

This option is used to calculate the low-frequency time harmonic electromagnetic response of a system subjected to harmonic excitation.

Product: Abaqus/Standard  

Type: History data

Level: Step

Reference:

Required parameters:

LOW FREQUENCY

Include this parameter to specify that the electromagnetic response is calculated based on the standard low-frequency assumption of neglecting the effects of displacement currents in Maxwell's equations.

TIME HARMONIC

Include this parameter to calculate the time harmonic linear electromagnetic response of the system subjected to harmonic excitation.

Data lines to define an electromagnetic analysis: 

First line:

  1. Lower limit of frequency range or a single frequency, in cycles/time.

  2. Upper limit of frequency range, in cycles/time. If this value is given as zero, it is assumed that results are required at only one frequency and the remaining data items on the line are ignored.

  3. Total number of points in the frequency range at which results should be given, including the end points. The minimum value is 2. If the value given is less than 2 (or omitted), the default value of 20 points is assumed.

Repeat this data line as often as necessary to define frequency ranges in which results are required.
