The materials.py module#

Summary#

get_guidelines_for_materials

Built-in versus custom materials, anisotropic input. Applies to FDTD and MODE.

Description#

Material-selection guidance shared by FDTD and MODE (materials topic).

Both products use the same material database and addmaterial/setmaterial lumapi calls. The markdown below is therefore neutral in its handle naming (fdtd shown for brevity, mode works identically).
