Hi Enrico,
I'm currently a master's student. May I ask you about the calculation methods and theories used by FastCap2 in computing capacitance?
I would like to compare and cross-verify the research contents between FastCap2 and mine.
Thank you
first using fasthenry |

Hi Denny,
you can find the main papers explaining the theory under FastCap2 and FasterCap under the 'Literature' section of our web site.
In particular I encourage you to read "The Treatment of Dielectrics in FasterCap" which actually deals also with the formulations in FastCap2.
You can also check the original papers under 'Literature->Publication", in particular K. S. Nabors, J. White, "Multipole-Accelerated Capacitance Extraction Algorithms for 3-D Structures with Multiple Dielectrics", IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems - I: Fundamental Theory and Applications, Vol. 39, No. 11, Nov 1992 is a short summary of how FastCap2 works, while you can find the full-blown detailed explanations in K. S. Nabors, "Efficient Three-Dimensional Capacitance Calculation", PhD thesis at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, May 1993.
Best,
Enrico
