SUBROUTINE FDMOD(X,Y,Z,BX,BY,BZ)
* PURPOSE : THIS ROUTINE CALCULATES THE COMPONENTS OF THE MAGNETIC * * FIELD, Bx,By,Bz AT THE GIVEN POINT (X,Y,Z) IN SPACE. * * THIS FIELD IS PRODUCED BY TWO TILTED MAGNETS- ONE ROTATED * * CLOCKWISE, THE OTHER ROTATED COUNTER-CLOCKWISE BY THE SAME * * AMOUNT. * * A FIELD DUE TO A MAGNET LYING IN THE XY PLANE IS GIVEN BY: * * * * B(r) = 1 1 M(r') . n (r - r') da' * * --- 1 --------3 * * c 1 |r - r'| * * integral * * WHERE M(r') IS THE MAGNETISATION NORMAL TO THE SURFACE OF MAGNET. * * IN THIS ROUTINE, THE MAGNETISATION OF THE MAGNET IS LINEARLY * * FALLING. SO IT HAS THE FORM: M(r') = A(x'-x ) + B(y'- y ) + M * * o o o * * THEN, SUBSTITUTING THIS FORM IN THE ABOVE EXPRESSION YIELDS THE * * COMPONENTS OF THE MAGNETIC FIELD AT THE POINT (x,y,z). * * HOWEVER, SINCE THE FIELD HERE IS PRODUCED BY THE TWO TILTED MAGNETS, * * THIS POINT (x,y,z) IN THE EXPERIMENTAL SYSTEM HAS TO BE EXPRESSED * * IN THE COORDINATE SYSTEM THAT IS CENTRED AT EACH OF THE MAGNETS. * * THEREFORE, THIS POINT IS TRANSLATED AND ROTATED APPROPRIATELY INTO * * THE COORDINATE SYSTEMS OF EACH OF THE TWO MAGNETS. * * AFTER, THE FIELD DUE TO EACH OF THE MAGNETS IS COMPUTED, THE TOTAL * * FIELD IS DETERMINED BY ADDING IT UP DUE TO THE PRINCIPLE OF * * SUPERPOSITION. * * THE RELEVANT PARAMETERS:AMOUNT OF TRANSLATION,ROTATION, AND THE * * VALUES OF THE MAGNETISATION CONSTANTS A,B,AND M ARE INCLUDED IN * * o * * IN THE FILE FDMOD1.CMN. * * * * * * VARIABLES: * * INPUT: * * X,Y,Z : COORDINATES OF A POINT WHERE THE FIELD IS REQUIRED. * * OUTPUT: * * BX,BY,BZ : TOTAL FIELD COMPONENTS AT A POINT (X,Y,Z). * * OTHERS: * * ANG : ANGLE IN RADIANS BY WHICH THE MAGNETS ARE ROTATED. * * BX1,BX2,BXX1,BXX2,BXX3,BXX4,BXX5 : TEMPORARIES WHICH ARE USED TO STORE * * THE X-COMPONENT OF THE MAGNETIC FIELD. * * BY1,BY2,BYY1,BYY2,BYY3,BYY4,BYY5 : TEMPORARIES WHICH ARE USED TO STORE * * THE Y-COMPONENT OF THE MAGNETIC FIELD. * * BZ1,BZ2,BZZ1,BZZ2,BZZ3,BZZ4 : TEMPORARIES WHICH ARE USED TO STORE * * THE Z-COMPONENT OF THE MAGNETIC FIELD. * * XL,YL,ZL : ARRAYS WHOSE ELEMENTS CONTAIN THE AMOUNT BY WHICH THE * * CORRESPONDING PIECE OF THE MAGNET IS TRANSLATED. * *******************************************************************************
