  We present a method for the automatic generation of netlists describing
general three-dimensional electrothermal and electromagnetic field problems.
Using a pair of structured orthogonal grids as spatial discretisation, a
one-to-one correspondence between grid objects and circuit elements is obtained
by employing the finite integration technique. The resulting circuit can then
be solved with any standard available circuit simulator, alleviating the need
for the implementation of a custom time integrator. Additionally, the approach
straightforwardly allows for field-circuit coupling simulations by
appropriately stamping the circuit description of lumped devices. As the
computational domain in wave propagation problems must be finite, stamps
representing absorbing boundary conditions are developed as well.
Representative numerical examples are used to validate the approach. The
results obtained by circuit simulation on the generated netlists are compared
with appropriate reference solutions.
