Deep learning-based surrogate model for fast multi-material topology optimization of IPM motor

Hayaho Sato et al.

Summary: This paper introduces a deep learning-based surrogate model for fast multi-material topology optimization of an interior permanent magnet (IPM) motor. The convolutional neural network (CNN) is used to predict motor performance from the cross-sectional motor image, reducing the number of finite element analysis. By using this approach, the average torque for any current phase angle can be predicted, allowing for maximization of the average torque by changing the current phase angle.

Design and Fabrication of Magnetic System Using Multi-Material Topology Optimization

Taehoon Jung et al.

Summary: This paper presents the design and fabrication schemes of a magnetic system consisting of segmented permanent magnet (PM) blocks, back-iron and frame structures. Non-intuitive design of segmented PMs and back-iron are obtained using multi-material topology optimization formulation, and a non-magnetic frame structure is designed through a post-processing procedure using the smoothed fields of optimized PM and back-iron densities. Two magnetic systems are successfully designed and fabricated for maximizing the magnetic field inside a rectangular cavity, and maximizing the magnetic force generated with a C-core electromagnet.
