Design Optimisation of Electromagnetic Devices Using Continuum Design Sensitivity Analysis Combined with Comercial Em Software
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper deals with two kinds of optimisation problems, relevant to the optimised source distribution and the shape optimum design, using Continuum Design Sensitivity Analysis (CDSA) in combination with standard electromagnetic (EM) software. Fast convergence and compatibility with existing EM software are the distinctive features of the proposed implementation. In order to verify the advantages and also to facilitate understanding of the method itself, two design optimisation problems have been tested: one is an MRI design problem related to finding an optimal permanent magnet distribution and the other is a pole shape design problem of a BLDC motor for reducing cogging torque, using both 2D and 3D models.

متن کاملSensitivity Analysis of Water Flooding Optimization by Dynamic Optimization
This study concerns the scope to improve water flooding in heterogeneous reservoirs. We used an existing, in-house developed, optimization program consisting of a reservoir simulator in combination with an adjoint-based optimal control algorithm. In particular we aimed to examine the scope for optimization in a two-dimensional horizontal reservoir containing a single high permeable streak, ...
متن کاملA versatile smart transformation optics device with auxetic elasto-electromagnetic metamaterials
Synergistic integration of electromagnetic (EM) and mechanical properties of metamaterials, a concept known as smart metamaterials, promises new applications across the spectrum, from flexible waveguides to shape-conforming cloaks. These applications became possible thanks to smart transformation optics (STO), a design methodology that utilizes coordinate transformations to control both EM wave...
متن کاملMulti-level Thrust Ripples Minimization of Linear Flux Switching Motors With Segmented Secondary by Combined Genetic Algorithm and Response Surface Methodology
Linear flux switching motors with simple passive segmented secondary, referred as Segmented Secondary Linear Flux Switching Motors (SSLFSMs), have low cost secondary and therefore are applicable to transportation systems like Maglev. However, it is shown that the SSLFSMs suffer from high thrust ripples. In this paper, minimizing SSLFSM thrust ripples besides maximizing its developed thrust are ...
