Computational Magnetics / Edition 1

by J. Sykulski

Overview

This book fills the gap between theory, available computational techniques and engineering practice in the design of electrical and electromechanical machines. The theory underlying all currently recommended computational and experimental methods is covered comprehensively, including field analysis and synthesis, magnetic fields coupled to stress and thermal fields. The book is very practically oriented and includes many examples of actual solutions to real devices.
