In summary, it is possible to simulate magnetic and electric fields in a laboratory setting using techniques such as electromagnets and charged particles. The purpose of these simulations is to better understand the behavior of these forces and their interactions with other objects. The accuracy of simulations depends on various factors, but with advanced technology, they can be very accurate. While simulations can predict the behavior of real-life fields, there may be some discrepancies. However, there are limitations to simulating magnetic and electric fields, including system complexity, accuracy of mathematical models, and computational power required.

Is there a simulation software capable of simulating the effects of magnetic and electric fields like the current iduced in a loop because of a changing flux?
thanks

I want sth like catia or solidwrork but capable of showing that eg. if we have a conductor loop which is in a changing magnetic field,how will be its current.
