MaX-1, A Visual Electromagnetics
Platform, is a graphic platform for computational electromagnetics
containing advanced tools for the visualization and animation of
electromagnetic fields as well as numeric semi-analytic and analytic
Maxwell techniques. Part-based on the Multiple Multipole (MMP)
technique and part-based on the Generalized Finite Difference (GFD)
scheme, MaX-1 is a powerful method with high reliability and accuracy
of results.
The product combines an authoritative
new executable (MaX-1) together with an extensive tutorial package
which demonstrates its diverse features, high level of flexibility and
broad range of applications. The User Manual and Tutorial are included
in the CD-ROM together with input files of all examples considered in
the tutorial and corresponding AVI movie animation files. On-line help
from the author is also available to all users of MaX-1.
An important advantage of MaX-1 is
the accompanying "Getting Started with MaX-1" manual which provides
step-by-step guidance on how to use each type of solvers, creating a
project and drawing objects in MaX-1. In addition all purchasers of
the CD-ROM package will receive a complimentary copy of the new text
Post Modern Electromagnetics Using Intelligent MaXwell Solvers which
was published January 1999.

System Requirements
MaX-1 can be installed on a PC
running Microsoft® Windows 95® or Windows NT (Version 4.0 or higher).
Systems should have 16MB or more physical memory.
When you run MaX-1
from the CD-ROM, no hard disk space is required for the installation.
The hard disk space required for running MaX-1 depends on the size of
the problem to be solved. Less than 1 MB of free space on your hard
disk is sufficient for most of the examples as long as no AVI movie
files are produced.
