Within the results of scientific research, vibrations and their reduction have been described for the brushless direct current motor with permanent magnets (BLDC motor). In this paper, calculations (the finite element method using commercial Finite Element Software Ansys) and measurements were performed to identifying the sources of vibrations in BLDC motor. The article presents numerical…

The currently available variety of modern, highly-parallel universal processors includes multi-core CPU and many-core GPU (Graphics Processing Units) from different vendors. Systems composed of such processors enable high-performance execution of demanding applications like numerical Finite Element Methods. However, today’s application pro- gramming for parallel systems lacks performance portability: the same program code cannot achieve stable…

A method for coupling of local and global fields related to currents, voltages and magnetic fields in magnetodynamic problems is developed in the frame of the finite subproblem finite element method. The method allows to correct the errors arising from thin conducting regions, that replace volume thin regions by surfaces but neglect border effects in…

In this investigation, an integrated physics-informed deep learning and topology optimization approach for solving density-based topology designs is presented to accomplish efficiency and flexibility. In every iteration, the neural network generates feasible topology designs, and then the topology performance is evaluated using the finite element method. Unlike the data-driven methods where the loss functions are…

Transformers are habitually designed and manufactured for operation at a fundamental frequency of 50Hz and sinusoidal load current. Transformers are susceptible to non-linear loads. The inception of switching action characterises Non-linear loads and consequently nonsinusoidal load current which brings about higher transformer service losses, hotspot temperature rise, and degradation of cellulosic and liquid insulation, and…

Increased recycling of PVC has become a requirement in industrial and scientific research level. Several studies will be realized. To confirm and check the recycled materials performance, it will be important to go through numerical modeling, which consists not only in validating the results of the experiments, but also in predicting what happens when the…

This paper proposes Halbach array PM linear generators for direct conversion of ocean or sea wave energy. This generator is proposed to be directly coupled to a reciprocating wave energy system which may be a valued alternative for pneumatic and hydraulic systems. In this research, air-cored permanent magnet PM linear generator has been optimally designed…

This article describes the modeling procedure of a direct resistive heat model of the molybdenum sheet and its simulation with electrodes made from various materials. The main characteristic of the proposed model is its dynamic behavior, because model considers the movement of the molybdenum sheet. The simulation results are mutually compared and the optimal material…

We develop a resolution of the Richards equation for the porous media of variable saturation by a finite element method. A formulation of interstitial pressure head and volumetric water content is used. A good conservation of the global and local mass is obtained. Some applications in the case of heterogeneous media are presented. These are…

The resolution of the Navier-Stokes and Euler equations by the finite element method is the focus of this paper. These equations are solved in conservative form using, as unknown variables, the so-called conservative variables (density, momentum per unit volume and total energy per unit volume). The variational formulation developed is a variant of the Petrov-Galerkin…

Reinforced concrete (RC) structures are able to dissipate a large amount of energy during earthquake (EQ). RC structures designed to resist EQs must have enough strength and stiffness to prevent any possible collapse as well as to control deflection. Seismic codes include the response reduction/modification factor(R) in calculation of equivalent lateral forces used for EQ…

We describe a mathematical model for the industrial heating and cooling processes of a steel workpiece representing the steering rack of an automobile. The goal of steel heat treating is to provide a hardened surface on critical parts of the workpiece while keeping the rest soft and ductile in order to reduce fatigue. The high…
