Abstract:Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to propose dot sensitivity analysis of ferromagnetic materials for topology optimization in an axi-symmetric magnetostatic system.
Design/methodology/approach
The dot sensitivity formula for the axi-symmetric system is derived as a closed form using the continuum shape sensitivity formula. The dot sensitivity method is combined with the level set method to perform topology optimization.
Findings
Derived dot sensitivity analysis can generate a ferromagnetic ring torus in… Show more
