• Resumen

  • The design of electromagnetic systems for a variety of applications such as induction heating, electrical machines, actuators and transformers requires the solution of a multi-physics problem often involving thermal, structural and mechanical coupling to the electromagnetic system. This results in a complex analysis system embedded within an optimization process. The appearance of high-performance computing systems over the past few years has made coupled simulations feasible for the design engineer.

    When coupled with surrogate modelling techniques, it is possible to significantly reduce the wall clock time for generating a complete design while including the impact of the multi-physics performance on the device.
