You could probably export (XPostProcessor.VtkExporter or XPostProcessor.VtkXmlExporter, not sure it is in s4l_v1) it as a VTK file and modify your neural network DataLoader to support VTK files, e.g., via the meshio package or the much larger vtk package, or many others. Or you could write a little Python script to grab the field data and save it to npy. To access the field, you would get the output of the extractor or pipeline entity in the analysis, say a FloatFieldData object. It has a Field(self, index: int) -> np.ndarray method to get the field as a numpy array, which you could save using e.g., np.save("filename.npy", fd.Field(0))

Hi, Sorry to bother You. IN ATTACHED VIDEO SHOWS WHAT HAPPENS AFTER CLICKING THE OPTION "CREATE PLOT" AND THE SYSTEM CRASHES. The workstation and memory have been tested, all without errors. Can one of the service engineers help? Kind regards, Thank you, Andrei Andrei Churakov MD,PhD, Associate Professor of the Department of Electronic Engineering and Technology BSUIR E-mail: anchurakov@bsuir.by

This question is quite old. Maybe you found a solution? Otherwise I guess you could use one of these options: you can crop the field, e.g. via the bounding box (or the extent if you have an E-field on a rectilinear grid) you could use the interpolation filter: define your little box grids, and interpolate from the field sensor field to your box grids you could define small field sensors in the simulation setup (not sure it is scalable to hundreds of sensors)

Hi @parsley, Thank you for your feedback and for reporting the issue you experienced. The MATCH tool has already been successfully used/validated by many users and offers several useful features. For example, it allows users to add loading or matching circuits the S-matrix of a simulation and obtain updated scattering parameters without re‑running the full simulation. Have you experienced any problems with this particular workflow? From the information you provided, the issue appears to be related to only the Initial Matching function—the option that generates a matching circuit for a given S-matrix of a simulation at a chosen target frequency. In your case, you reported that it worked with the dipole antenna example but not with your specific antenna model. We would be happy to discuss the details so we can reproduce the problem and resolve it quickly. We will contact you to find out a convenient time to follow up. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention.

@Sylvain Hi Sylvain! Thanks for sharing the method. I tried it in this very simple structure but get unexpected result for current density. Also available at my post here https://forum.zmt.swiss/post/2071. I use the following very simple structure to test whether I am using the LF Ohmic Quasi-Static Solver correctly. The voltage comes out as expected but the current (density) is incorrect. I have these three electrodes of the same radius (1mm) stacking together (touching each other) in an electrode-cylinder-electrode configuration. I want to apply to a 2V (+1V top, -1V bottom) to the two silver electrodes and achieve a 1 kA current through. So I chose the cylinder material (copper) and length such that the resistance is 2 mOhm. After running the simulation, where I place a line as voltage sensor (it runs from 2mm offset from the top electrode to 2mm offset from the bottom electrode, in the centre), it gives a value of -1.9786V as expected. When I combine the J(x,y,z,f0) from the overall field and a plane I created and use flux evaluator to measure total current density as described here, unexpected resutls occur. I tried two different planes and they gave different results:: A block with 0mm thickness and 1m x 1m in area in the middle of the cylinder parallel to the electrodes, result: 1 A/m^2, multiply by the area gives 1A A cylinder with 0mm thickness and 1mm in radius in the middle of the cylinder parallel to the elctrodes, resutls: 49.7369 A/m^2, multiply by the area gives 0.156mA (P.S. why the current density has a unit of [A/m^2 m^2]?) Model, Simulation and Analysis details are summaried in the screenshots attached.

@bryn @gc00 @halder Thank you so much, You've been very helpful !

@ofli Can the conductivity map after head segmentation be exported?

Hi, you can get additional information by enabling the "Far Field" sensor and then choosing the "Radiation Report" evaluator (see for example the Phased Array Patch Antenna tutorial). It will not solve your problem, but might help you get a clearer picture. From what you describe, it's possible you have a very low mismatch efficiency (most of the energy is reflected). This could be addressed by improving the way you are modeling your source, or by just ignoring it if it is not important (i.e. if you are not actually simulating the real feed and are only interested in the antenna itself). You would do that by considering the Radiation Efficiency (ratio of Radiated Power to Accepted Power) instead.

Hello! Thank you for your quick answer :) I'll do that in the meantime

e.g. something like this def spherical_parametrization(theta: float, phi: float) -> Vec3 '''Parametrize head skin center and radius computed from head, e.g. using: p1, p2 = XCoreModeling.GetBoundingBox(skin) center = 0.5 * (p1 + p2) radius = 0.51 * (p2-p1).Length() ''' point_on_sphere = center + Vec3(radius * sin(theta) * cos(phi), radius * sin(theta) * sin(phi), radius * cos(theta)) r = XCoreModeling.GetEntityPointDistance(skin, point_on_sphere) return r.ClosestPosition This should work quite well, except for the concave regions, e.g. behind the ears.

Thanks, the simulation file is from sim4life V7.2, so I'm not able to see the convergence in the analysis window. Fortunately, I have found the "x_Output.log" in my Results file, but I can't understand it. Could you please explain the meaning of each row in the results file?

Dear Arjama, Thanks a lot for your reply and for your very detailed example. The problem I was referring to is in the line where you add TIMAM to the mask. If I run: inputs = [TIMAM] field_masking_filter = analysis.core.FieldMaskingFilter(inputs=inputs) where TIMAM = modulation_envelope(e_field_1, e_field_2, dir_vector=None) I get the error: field_masking_filter = analysis.core.FieldMaskingFilter(inputs=[TImax]) File "C:\Program Files\Sim4Life_8.0.0.15165\Python\lib\site-packages\s4l_v1_api\analysiswrappers.py", line 231, in init self.Inputs[id].Connect(input) File "C:\Program Files\Sim4Life_8.0.0.15165\Python\lib\site-packages\s4l_v1_api\analysiswrappers.py", line 647, in Connect raise Exception("Can't connect ports") Exception: Can't connect ports So I think my problem is the creation of TIMAM. I Imagine it is not the TI envelope, but rather the TI Envelope inside some data structure that can be connected to the masking filter? Thanks again!

@halder Hi Arjama, thanks for your reply! I will send you an email!

It depends on what you mean by transmitting and receiving. If the port outputs of the antenna look like 50 ohms in both transmit and receive then the usual multiport simulation will work just fine. Then you just need to go into each port, say "port extract" then go to overall field, then extract that ports E field. This E field will be what is generated from exciting port n and "receiving" on all other antenna. Do this 8 times for all 8 ports and this should be what you want
