... characterized by an equivalent magnetomotive force (MMF) located in slots, teeth and yokes. Findings It is found that whatever the iron core relative permeability, the developed HAM gives accurate results for no- and on-load conditions. The finite-element analysis demonstrates excellent results...

... Group Publishing Limited 2014 Bearingless motor Finite-element analysis Mathematic model Switched reluctance motor Switched reluctance motors (SRMs) have been extensively investigated and applied all over the world, because of its simple structure, wide speed range, flexible...

... Non‐parametric optimization Finite‐element analysis Magnetic‐fluid hyperthermia The heat generated by means of magnetic nanoparticles (NPs), suspended in a fluid and excited by a time‐harmonic magnetic field, can be used in magnetic‐fluid hyperthermia (MFH) for cancer therapy (Hildebrandt...

... as the case study. Originality/value The proposed method makes it possible to reduce the cost of an optimisation procedure, when the direct problem is solved by means of finite‐element analysis. Node potentials along Γ₁₂ are unknown, while the boundary condition along Γ₂...

... performance at various asynchronous speeds. Findings Analytical geometry‐dependant equations for the d‐ and q‐axis SRM inductances are derived. On the basis of the proposed 2D time‐stepping finite‐element analysis, the start‐up performance for the SRM rotor design using different...
