problem with formula node/ FFT

Hallo all,

i would like to find the fourier transform of the function: V(x,y,t) = V = 1/(4*((pi)*t)**3/2) * exp(-(x**2+y**2)/4*t) . This equation describes the temprature propagation through a block of metal . For example, at the surface of the block (x=0, y=0) the function should have a sharp peak and the corresponding FFT of this point should look like a lowpass filter.

 

i made a small program, which shows the FFT of this function, but i do not know how i can find the FFT for example exactly at the point (x=0,y=0) or any other point that i am interested in?  i mean, how can i insert the values of x,y that i am interested in, to be shown in the FFT?

thanks.

Hi Oliver

 

Having looked at the code attached, it seems that all you need to do in order to find the FFT at a specific point is to remove the random number generator from the x and y inputs to the formula node and replace them with either a constant or a control, so that you can specify the values of x and y. I hope this helps, but please let me know if you have any other questions.

 

Regards
