Hybrid Finite-Element–Boundary Element Analysis of a Single-Sided Sheet Rot…

A hybrid finite-element–boundary element method is adopted for the analysis of linear induction machines (LIM) in Cartesian coordinates. A mathematical boundary is defined arbitrarily in free space to enclose the system. Finite-element formulation is applied for the interior region and boundary integral formulation is applied on the boundary using the response function excited by a transverse…
