Hello,
I see what you are getting at.
You have demonstrated the vector direction and force along
the 3D wire path according to biot-savart.
I took the liberty of rewriting the code sections from the
notebook you sent so that I could rearrange things and
enter (iterate) more numbers.
This is very close to what I was looking for.
I have not had much chance to do much more than look at
your notes and rearrange your code into programmatic space.
I will attempt to rearrange the code to allow me to make
a volumetric plot with a series of fixed distances from the wire.
What I hope is that I can ultimately step my way along
equally spaced positions along the (any) path and
iterate through a series of radial distances from those.
Peter
