    Hi Jack, no, it is not possible to "borrow" a license

    Hi @bryn, I'm meshing an implanted device as a faceted mesh which is then embedded in an octree mesh. This is all through the Python API.

    Thank you; it's all clear. One more information: I have a solid that is more internal than others, and this one has a high and stable temperature. I want to do a thermal simulation using Pennes. As sources, do I have to set anything? Should I just set the temperature of the solid in the boundary conditions?

    I have run a simulation for a high pass birdcage coil. How can I see the current distribution on the end rings in the time domain?

    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Please allow me to share here the response we sent you via the Sim4Life support email so that other users can benefit from your questions. The default machine provides 500GB of storage, and you are running out of space for this project. If your results require more than 500GB, consider upgrading to a higher-tier machine with greater storage capacity. Alternatively, you could reduce the size of your simulation project by splitting it into multiple smaller simulations. This would allow you to continue using the default tier. Additionally, you might optimize your sensor settings, such as by creating smaller sensors and recording data for specific volumes of interest, rather than using an Overall Field sensor.

    That works! If it's for a 2D plot, you can always right click and export the data to an excel or csv file and then work with that if you'd prefer

    The full version has the same performance as the Light version: it can just deal with bigger problems.
    Note that the low-frequency solvers are not GPU-accelerated, so if you are using that the GPU is anyway not used. If you are using the FDTD solver instead, it is accelerated by the GPU but its performance might be severely affected by the frequency of your simulation (the lower the frequency, the more iteration the FDTD method has to do in order to reach convergence). If you are in a regime where the quasi-static approximations hold, I would strongly advise you to use the LF solvers.

    I think your signal was fine, but your settings for the Field Sensor need to be changed.

    2kHz will probably not be feasible in most propagating media, because the wavelength will simply be too large compared to the grid resolution your geometry requires (leading to unreasonably large time steps).
    You might want to check for e.g. what your grid look like, especially the padding at the boundaries of your computational domain.

    Thanks for the code.

    Actually I need to model some wires with the fixed length, with one part in the brain in different spots and the remaining out of the brain, It takes a long time to model each one and I'm looking for a way to make them in a shorter time.

    Thanks.
