HFSS15: Vector Commands

Scal?

Replaces the vector in the top register with a scalar quantity whose value is a component of the vector.

Matl

Multiplies or divides the vector field quantity in the top register by a material property, or if you select MassDensity as the material property, produces a scalar that operates like a named variable.

Mag

Takes the magnitude of the vector quantity in the top register. The magnitude of a complex vector is defined to be the length of the real vector resulting from taking the modulus of each component of the original complex vector.

Dot

Takes the dot product of the vector quantities in the top two registers.

Cross

Takes the cross product of the vector quantities in the top two registers.

Divg

Takes the divergence of the vector quantity in the top register.

Curl

Takes the curl of the vector quantity in the top register.

Tangent

Computes the tangential component of a vector quantity along a line

Normal

Computes the normal component of a vector quantity on a surface such as a cutplane or object surface.

Unit Vec

Computes the normal or tangent unit vector. The unit vector is a "wild card" entry. The context is specified at the time of plotting, integrating, or report generation.
