Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Complex magnetic materials, such as superconducting materials, composite or nanomaterials, rare-earth-free permanent magnets, and so on, are becoming increasingly popular in next-generation technologies. The experimental characterization of these materials is often too costly or even not applicable, while fast and efficient computational electromagnetic (CEM) methods are currently available to understand and fully characterize the behavior of such materials.

This Special Issue aims at publishing a collection of research contributions illustrating recent advances in computational electromagnetic techniques needed to model and characterize complex magnetic materials, focusing on the topics listed below

The incorporation of hysteresis models in computational electromagnetic software is of paramount importance for the accurate prediction of the ferromagnetic devices’ performance. The Preisach and Jiles-Atherton (J-A) models are frequently used for this purpose. The former is more accurate and can represent a broad range of magnetic materials, but it is computationally expensive. The latter is more efficient but can accurately model only soft ferromagnetic materials. In this paper, a recently proposed hysteresis model, referred to as the D’Aloia-Di Francesco-De Santis (D-D-D) model, is shown to have the best trade-off between accuracy and computational burden. For the first time, a numerical comparison between the Preisach, J-A and D-D-D models is provided for a large class of hysteresis loops including soft, semi-hard and hard ferromagnetic materials.

Anatomical realistic voxel models of human beings are commonly used in numerical dosimetry to evaluate the human exposure to low-frequency electromagnetic fields. The downside of these models is that they do not correctly reproduce the boundaries of curved surfaces. The stair-casing approximation errors introduce computational artifacts in the evaluation of the induced electric field and the use of post-processing filtering methods is essential to mitigate these errors. With a suitable exposure scenario, this paper shows that tetrahedral meshes make it possible to remove stair-casing errors. However, using tetrahedral meshes is not a sufficient condition to completely remove artifacts, because the quality of the tetrahedral mesh plays an important role. The analyses carried out show that in real exposure scenarios, other sources of artifacts cause peak values of the induced electric field even with regular meshes. In these cases, the adoption of filtering techniques cannot be avoided. Full article
