Magnets snapping
Two magnets covered by a layer of insulator material (stiff plastic) are coming into contact with each other (snapping) due to electromagnetic forces. This example shows how magnets can be simulated using the EM solver and how dynamic motion due to magnetic forces can be simulated. It uses the FEM-BEM monolithic magnetostatics solver (used for zero-conductivity ferromagnetic materials) and a AMS preconditionner.
