    Efficient 3D Inverse Fourier Transform on FORTRAN Code with Chi Array

    Hi, I have a FORTRAN code with an array called Chi that I want to run an inverse FT on. I have defined two spaces X and K which each consist of 3 vectors running across my physical verse and inverse space. My code (If it works??) is extremely slow and inefficient (see below). What is the best...

    MHB Another field lines of 3D vector functions question

    I am trying to find the field lines of the 3D vector function F(x, y, z) = yi − xj +k. I began by finding dx/dt =y, dy/dt = -x, dz/dt = 1. From here I computed dy/dx = -x/y, and hence y^2 + x^2 = c. For dz/dt = 1, I found that z = t + C, where C is a constant. I am unsure where to go from...

    MHB Field lines of 3D vector functions

    My question regards finding the field lines of the 3D vector function F(x,y,z) = yzi + zxj + xyk. I was able to compute them to be at the curves x^2 - y^2 = C and x^2 -z^2 = D, where C and D are constants. From my understanding the field lines will occur at the intersection of these two...

    Statics in 3D, there must a be faster way to do this.

    Given this, is there a faster way to compute this or must I do 3 separate 3x3 determinants? I can probably use cross product of each term, for example , (2rk) X (Axi) = (-2rAx j) (not forgetting the negative sign for j) next, (2rk) X (Ayj) = (2rAyi) and so on... but that feels too slow as...
