Struct ElectromagneticField 

pub struct ElectromagneticField {
    pub electric_field: f64,
    pub magnetic_flux_density: f64,
}

A scalar electric and magnetic field pair.

Fields

electric_field: f64

magnetic_flux_density: f64

Implementations

impl ElectromagneticField

pub const fn new( electric_field: f64, magnetic_flux_density: f64, ) -> Option<ElectromagneticField>

Creates a field pair when both scalar components are finite.

pub fn electric_force_on_charge(&self, charge: f64) -> Option<f64>

Computes electric force using the field’s electric component.

pub fn lorentz_force_scalar( &self, charge: f64, velocity: f64, angle_radians: f64, ) -> Option<f64>

Computes the scalar Lorentz-force convenience relation for this field pair.

pub fn energy_density(&self) -> Option<f64>

Computes combined electromagnetic energy density for this field pair.

Examples

use use_electromagnetism::ElectromagneticField;

let field = ElectromagneticField::new(10.0, 2.0).unwrap();

assert!(field.energy_density().unwrap() > 0.0);

pub fn poynting_magnitude(&self) -> Option<f64>

Computes Poynting magnitude when the stored field values are used as magnitudes.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for ElectromagneticField

fn clone(&self) -> ElectromagneticField

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for ElectromagneticField

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result<(), Error>

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl PartialEq for ElectromagneticField

fn eq(&self, other: &ElectromagneticField) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
