NumBAT, the Numerical Brillouin Analysis Tool, integrates electromagnetic and acoustic mode solvers to calculate the interactions of optical and acoustic waves in waveguides.
NumBAT was developed by Bjorn Sturmberg, Kokou Dossou, Chris Poulton and Michael Steel in a collaboration between Macquarie University and the University of Technology Sydney, as part of the Australian Research Council Discovery Project DP160101691.
The current release of NumBAT can be found at https://github.com/michaeljsteel/NumBAT.

file in the root directory.
NumBAT builds natively on Linux, MacOS and Windows.
For detailed instructions, please see the Installation chapter in the pdf or HTML documentation files, including NumBAT.pdf
