Space-time shape optimization of rotating electric machines

Alessio Cesarano1, Peter Gangl1, Charles Dapogny2

1Johann Radon Institute of Computational and Applied Mathematics (RICAM), Linz, Austria; 2Laboratoire Jean Kuntzmann - Universit´e Grenoble Alpes, France

In the present work we propose a different approach to simulate and optimize a
rotating electric motor. We solve the eddy-current equation, with the use of the shape derivative
and space-time finite element methods. We then also consider electro-thermal coupling.

Topology optimization of passive mode-converters and multiplexers for acoustic and electromagnetic wave propagation

Eddie Wadbro1,2

1Karlstad University, Sweden; 2Umeå University, Sweden

This presentation considers the problems of designing passive devices for mode conversion and multiplexing in the context of acoustic and electromagnetic wave propagation using topology optimization. Although these problems may appear similar, this talk focuses on the differences between the two cases and, in particular, the unique features of the electromagnetic problem.

Development of a Topological Optimization Method using 3D Volume Integral Equations

Sophie Michel, Frédéric Messine, Jean-René Poirier

Laboratoire LAPLACE, France

This work presents topological optimization method to design magnetic cricuit in 3D. This method is based on adjoint method using the equations of volume integral methods. Thus, our approach makes it possible to reduce the computational time and the memory compared to classical topology optimization methods based on finite element calculations.

Gradient-based Topological Optimization for 3D Magnetic Circuit Design with Mechanical Considerations

Zakaria Houta, Frederic Messine, Thomas Huguet

LAPLACE-CNRS, ENSEEIHT, France

In this paper, density-based topological optimization is used to design a simple magnetic circuit. This study aims to minimize the mechanical compliance of a circuit subjected to a surface force and under a constraint in order to generate a specific magnetic field in a target zone. We propose an approach based on the SIMP approach and the adjoint method to solve the topological optimization problem applied to design 3D magnetic circuit.
