Motivation * The "micromagnetic standard problems":www.ctcms.nist.gov/~rdm/stdplan.html allow to compare pdf":attachment:SW_standard_problem_Pre_print.pdf This wiki page has supporting material for the simulation results of different simulation tools and help finding bugs and errors. * Here we propose a new standard problem that computes spin wave dispersion of a permalloy stripe using different micromagnetic packages h2. Summary * We propose a standard micromagnetic problem which involves a nanostripe of permalloy * The magnetization dynamics is studied and methods to extract features from simulations are described !SW.png! * Spin wave dispersion curves, relating frequency and wave vector, are obtained for wave propagation in different configurations * Simulation results obtained using both finite element (Nmag) and finite difference (OOMMF) packages are compared against analytic results # Selected results # Supporting material paper # **The mesh** - The mesh file (attachment:nanowire.nmesh.h5). It has been generated using the Examesh utility (attachment:examesh.zip) which can be used for generating the mesh for a cuboid structure. # **The simulation script** - The simulation script (attachment:run.py) has details of the simulation. The comments in it should be self explanatory. Notice that it uses the HLib library for compressing the BEM matrix generated during the simulation # **The post processing script** - The post processing script (attachment:post_process.py) generates the spin wave space-time and dispersion plots from the simulation data. It is assumed that NUmpy and matplotlib are both available. # **The Makefile** - This Makefile (attachment:Makefile) should run the entire simulation and then generate the dispersion curves. We strongly suggest this sort of approach because it reduces manual effort and the chances of errors. # **README** - A README file (attachment:README.txt) describes the action of the Makefile All the files are included in this zip file (attachment:spin_wave_dispersion_standard_problem.zip)
