When the stop button is pushed in the task manager, while a simulation is running, it will generate an event that is equivalent to "enforcing" a "convergence reached" state from the solver perspective. That's why the following log will appear inside the Solver-Log tab WARNING: Simulation end request received. The solvers starts to consider this. Steady state detected at iteration x, remaining time steps are y. Simulation performed z iterations. Elapsed time for 'Time Update' was xx:xx:xx wall clock time.

In the LF Electro Ohmic Quasi-Static (EQS) solver, when an electrode is assigned a Dirichlet boundary condition, the electric potential is applied to the boundary of the electrode rather than its entire volume. This is a visualization decision made during voxelization. For example, in the FDTD solver, an object assigned as a PEC appears as a filled volume in the voxel viewer. However, when the same object is assigned as a PEC in the LF Ohmic EQS solver, only its boundary is represented, making the electrode appear hollow. This is essentially a visualization artifact and should not affect your simulation results, provided that the electrode boundary and its contact with the surrounding materials are correctly resolved. However, we recommend using the voxel viewer to verify that the electrode boundaries are correctly detected and that the electrode is in proper contact with the intended tissue or material: (1) Voxel Viewer (Slices): Confirm that there are no gaps (background voxels) between the electrode and the surrounding tissue or material. (2) Connectivity Check: Verify that the contact region is connected as intended. (3) Voxel Grid View: Check how the electrode is voxelized and verify its assigned priority.
