Parameters:

Shield label
The name of the shield.
Number of layers
The total number of layers.
Material label

Shield definition label (Yt)
The shield layer (SD card) that is to be used for the admittance part of layer 1.
Gap between layer 1 and 2 (m)
Air (free space) gap between layer 1 and layer 2 in meters.
Shield definition label (Zt + Zs)
The shield layer (SD card) to be used for the impedance part of layer 2.
Shield definition label (Yt)
