A 2D analytical method for magnetic vector potential calculation in inner rotor surface mounted and surface inset permanent magnet machines considering slotting effects, magnetization orientation and winding layout has been proposed in this paper. The analytical method is based on the resolution of Laplace and Poisson equations as well as Maxwell equation in quasi- Cartesian coordinate by using...

This paper presents 2D and 3D modeling of hysteresis motor using high temperature superconducting element Yttrium Barium Copper Oxide (YBCO) in the rotor. These hysteresis motors aim to improve the performance in comparison with that of conventional hysteresis motors. Various performance parameters of high temperature superconducting hysteresis motor are computed from the proposed 2D and 3D mod...

AMultiscale generalized hp-Finite Element Method (MSFEM) for time harmonic wave propagation in bands of locally periodic media of large, but finite extent, e.g., photonic crystal (PhC) bands, is presented. The method distinguishes itself by its size robustness, i.e., to achieve a prescribed error its computational effort does not depend on the number of periods. The proposed method shows this p...

This paper considers the extension of the frequency application range of the finite element method (FEM) applied to steady-state acoustic problems. This is achieved by the hybrid coupling of the FEM with the wave based method (WBM). The WBM is a computationally efficient alternative for the FEM, but it is restricted to acoustic problems of moderate geometrical complexity. The hybrid finite elem...

This paper presents the results of a number of computations using the 2D FEM to show the effects of significant variables on the behavior of geosynthetically reinforced earth slopes. The verification and reliability of the results are primarily examined through comparisons with experimental data available. The results seem to be quite acceptable and can be used with a high degree of reliability...
