Adaptive Finite Element Meshing at Each Iterative Calculation for Electromagnetic Field Analysis of Rotating Machines

Finite element mesh generation and adaptive meshing

This review paper gives a detailed account of the development of mesh generation techniques on planar regions, over curved surfaces and within volumes for the past years. Emphasis will be on the generation of the unstructured meshes for purpose of complex industrial applications and adaptive refinement finite element analysis. Over planar domains and on curved surfaces, triangular and quadrilat...

Finite Element Meshing for Cardiac Analysis∗

This application paper presents details of the technique we developed to produce an adaptive and quality tetrahedral finite element mesh model of a human heart. Beginning from a polygonal surface model consisting of twenty-two components, we first edit and convert it to volumetric gridded data. A component index for each cell edge and grid point is computed for assisting the boundary and materi...

Adaptive Electromagnetic Field Analysis for Axisymmetric Structure and Uniform Waveguide Using the Finite Element Method

An analysis of the electromagnetic field based on adaptive finite element is presented in this paper. The performance of the adaptive algorithms, based on an element-element h-refinement technique, is assessed. The features of the refinement indictors, adaptation criteria and error estimation parameters are discussed. The strategy of the adaptive mesh refinement method applied to the eigenvalue...

The finite element analysis of the linear hybrid reluctance motor for the electromagnetic launch system

The Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System (EMALS) is being developed utilizing electrical and electronic technologies. EMALS is emerging in order to replace the existing steam catapult on naval carriers. Recently, the double-sided linear launcher has drawn increasing attention of researchers. This paper presents the design and analysis of the Linear Hybrid Reluctance Motor (LHRM). This new mot...
