Methods: Of Stream Functions and Thin Wires: An Intuitive Approach to Gradient Coil Design

The design of gradient coils is sometimes perceived as complex and counterintuitive. However, a current density is connected to a stream function in fact by a simple relation. Here we present an intuitive open source code collection to derive stream functions from current densities on simple surface...
