Function
Computes the divergence and curl of a vector field.
Syntax
div, curl = DivCurl(data, method);
Inputs
| Name | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| data | vector field | none | field whose divergence and curl are to be computed. |
| method | string | "manhattan" | method to use |
Outputs
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| div | scalar field | divergence field |
| curl | vector field | curl field |
Functional Details
data | is the vector field to be operated on. The "data" component of the output fields (div and curl) contains the divergence and curl respectively. The other components of the original field remain unchanged in the output fields. |
method | specifies the algorithm used to make the computation. Currently, the only method supported is "manhattan." |
Components
Modifies the "data" component for the outputs. All other input components are propagated to the outputs.
