Description

The Coulomb Equation is

$\nabla\cdot{\bf D} - \rho = 0$

(6.122)

where $D$ is the polarization and $\rho$ is a charge density.

Because OOF2 does not include magnetism, there are no time derivative terms in the Coulomb Equation. OOF2 can only solve static and quasistatic polarization problems.
