Abstract

The topology optimizations of electromagnetic systems with the nonlinear and the eddy current effects are studied using the finite element method. The topology design sensitivity formulations of nonlinear magnetostatics and eddy current systems are derived using the adjoint variable method. A computer program is developed using object orient programming and applied to the topology optimization of a C-core actuator. A numerical study shows the effects of saturation and eddy current by comparing results of topology optimizations.
