 | The mode search algorithm has been replaced with a new algorithm that is
more robust and can deal with degenerate and nearly-degenerate modes. It can
also search the complex plane from the smtgui.
|
| The eigenvalue determination algorithm has been improved in order to avoid
inaccuracies that could lead to spurious minima. Also, an 'indirect'
Generalized Singular Value Decomposition (GSVD) method which is slower but
even more robust has been made available. |
| Circles and ellipses are not approximated by splines; their exact
representation is used. This requires that older (i.e., SMTP v1.0) geometry
descriptors be updated with the function updateGd.
|
| A few new examples have been added. |
| James Trevelyan's package has been integrated to allow geometries to be
exported to the AutoCAD DXF format (readable by other electromagnetic analysis
software such as COMSOL). |
| Online help has been added to the smtgui.
|
| A new function, out2curves, that sorts the
smtgui output
into a family of dispersion curves has been added. |
| A few bugs of the GUI have been fixed. |
