Edge elements for magnetostatics
نویسنده
چکیده
Edge-elements are introduced and discussed in the context of complementarity, a desirable characteristic of numerical methods, by which solutions which are equally satisfactory as regards both fields b and h are obtained. By making the vector potential approach easier than with standard nodal elements, edge-elements enhance complementarity. We discuss comparative merits of both kinds of elements.

Geometric Interpretation of Discrete Approaches to Solving Magnetostatics
The finite element approach can be considered as a tool for constructing finite dimensional systems of equations that approximate to field problems on the discrete level. Although the finite element technique is explained typically in terms of variational or weighted-residual approaches, another, less familiar way is available to introduce the same ideas geometrically. Using magnetostatics as a...

In this paper a novel method for computing the radiation pattern and also the input impedance of a planar rectangular micro-strip antenna array with consideration of mutual coupling and mutual impedance is presented. Each two triangles with a common edge make an Edge element or RWG. Any such edge element is considered as an infinitesimal dipole. The electrical currents over each dipole can be c...

i.e., that the free currents flow in closed loops. Likewise, the time derivative of the fourth Maxwell equation implies that Jfree has no time dependence in magnetostatics. Often, magnetostatics is taken to be the situation in which ∇ · Jfree = 0 and D, E and Jfree have no time dependence, without explicit assumption that B and H also have no time dependence. Discuss the possibility of waves of...
متن کاملA Fixed-Grid Finite Element Algebraic Multigrid Approach for Interface Shape Optimization Governed by 2-Dimensional Magnetostatics
The paper deals with a fast computational method for discretized optimal shape design problems governed by 2–dimensional magnetostatics. We discretize the underlying state problem using linear Lagrange triangular finite elements and in the optimization we eliminate the state problem for each shape design. The shape to be optimized is the interface between the ferromagnetic and air domain. The n...
متن کاملAbout the magnetic field of a finite wire
The Ampère theorem and the Biot–Savart law are well known tools used to calculate magnetic fields created by currents. Their use is not limited to the case of magnetostatics; they can also be used in time-dependent problems. We show in this paper that the highly classical example of a straight wire,generally treated as a simple magnetostatics problem, should be considered in the framework of ti...
