Markovic, M.Jufer, M.Perriard, Y.2006-06-152006-06-152006-06-15200410.1109/TMAG.2004.828920https://infoscience.epfl.ch/handle/20.500.14299/231853WOS:0002234465000145590We present an application of the conformal mapping (CM) method to determine the magnetic field and force in an electromechanical actuator. First, we show how to find, using a special type of CM known as the Schwarz-Christoffel mapping, the magnetic field in such a configuration. Then, we integrate the field in order to determine the force acting on the actuator moving part. The results are verified by a finite-element method.Conformal mappingElliptic functionsMagnetMagnetic fieldSchwarz-christoffel mappingVoice coiltext::journal::journal article::research article
