Boolean Operation Examples for Netgen
In computer-aided design (CAD), boolean operations are a set of functions that allow you to create new shapes by combining or modifying existing shapes. These operations are called boolean because they are based on the logical values of true and false, and they use the concepts of union, intersection, and difference to create new shapes.…

Boundary Conditions for Partial Differential Equations (1) Types of Boundaries
Here is a summary of the different types of boundary conditions that are commonly used in partial differential equation (PDE) problems: where $u$ is the variable (such as temperature or velocity) and $g$ is the fixed value specified by the boundary condition. where $u$ is the variable (such as temperature or velocity) and ${du/dn}$ is…

NGSolve Tutorials (1) First NG Solve Example Part B
In NGSolve, the BilinearForm class represents a bilinear form defined on a finite element space. A bilinear form is a function that takes two finite element functions as input and returns a scalar. It is used to define the left-hand side of a weak formulation of a PDE. In the code you provided, a bilinear…
