meep (electromagnetic FDTD solver)
|
|
|
|
Meep is a free and open-source software package for electromagnetics
|
|
simulation via the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method spanning
|
|
a broad range of applications. It saves results in hdf5 format.
|
|
|
|
You probably will also want to preinstall: harminv, openmpi
|
|
|
|
You may wish to also install: h5utils
|
|
|
|
You very probably want to build a multi-processor version of this
|
|
code by adding the "--with-openmp" configure option. Here, mpb is
|
|
specified as a prerequisite since at the present time the python
|
|
interface will not build without it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configuration:
|
|
|
|
If the build script can find the ATLAS libraries, it will adapt the
|
|
configure options to use them, rather than the the default choice of
|
|
lapack.
|
|
|
|
You can add additional options to the command line using
|
|
the environment variable SBOPTIONS_MEEP; e.g. to enable MPI
|
|
(multi-processor calculation) using openmp, use:
|
|
|
|
SBOPTIONS_MEEP="--with-openmp" ./meep.Slackbuild
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, if building non-interactively (e.g. if using slpkg),
|
|
use/create the file /etc/sbo_pkg_options.conf since this slackbuild
|
|
script will search it for options. Simply include a line starting
|
|
"meep:" followed by options, e.g.:
|
|
|
|
meep: --with-openmp
|
|
|
|
Currently, building the python support for meep can be problematic
|
|
unless the mpb package is also installed; if you do so, and (e.g.) use
|
|
openmp, it is best to build mpb with the same option. You may also
|
|
need to install mpi4py using pip. If you do not want python support,
|
|
specify "--without-python", and in this case installing mpb is not
|
|
necessary.
