Transformer

While I’m working on the (mathematical) coupling of electromagnetic field and electric circruit equations, I write a simulation package “FIDES”. This is part of the COMSON Demonstrator Platform, using OCTAVE as its interpreter.
Recently I wanted to visualize my results and ended up with a nice movie.

SCEE in Finland

I’m back from the SCEE 2008 (Scientific Computing in Electrical Engineering) Conference in Espoo, Finland. I gave a talk about coupling approaches (strong and weak coupling) for circuits refined by 3-D conductor models. The circuit is given in terms of the modified nodal analysis and the field is discretized by the finite integration technique.

Master-Thesis

Electric circuits contain devices that exhibit multi-physical effects. We may think of electric or magnetic, but also thermal effects. Traditionally these devices are idealized and only one effect is considered, while the others are disregarded. This yields simple laws that mathematically express their transient behaviour, but does not conform to reality.
