Purpose This paper aims to propose a novel direct method for indefinite algebraic linear systems. It is well adapted for sparse linear systems, such as those of two-dimensional (2-D) finite elements problems, especially for coupled systems. Design/methodology/approach The proposed method is developed on an example of an indefinite symmetric matrix. The algorithm of the method is given next, and a comparison between the numbers of operations required by the method and the Cholesky method is also given. Finally, an application on a magnetostatic problem for classical methods (Gauss and Cholesky) shows the relative efficiency of the proposed method. Findings The proposed method can be used advantageously for 2-D finite elements in stepping methods without using a block decomposition of matrices. Research limitations/implications This method is advantageous for direct linear solving for 2-D problems, but it is not recommended at this time for three-dimensional problems. Originality/value The proposed method is the first direct solver for algebraic linear systems proposed since more than a half century. It is not limited for symmetric positive systems such as many of direct and iterative methods.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the theoretical foundation of the so-called quasi 3D modelling method of axial flux machines, and the means for the simulation of the resulting models. Design/methodology/approach – Starting from the first principles, a 3D magnetostatic problem is geometrically decomposed into a coupled system of 2D problems. Genuine 2D problems are derived by decoupling the system. The construction of the 2D simulation models is discussed, and their applicability is evaluated by comparing a finite element implementation to an existing industry-used model. Findings – The quasi 3D method relies on the assumption of vanishing radial magnetic flux. The validity of this assumption is reflected in a residual gained from the 3D coupled system. Moreover, under a modification of the metric of the 2D models, an axial flux machine can be presented as a family of radial flux machines. Research limitations/implications – The evaluation and interpretation of the residual has not been carried out. Furthermore, the inclusion of eddy currents has not been detailed in the present study. Originality/value – A summary of existing modelling and simulation methods of axial flux machines is provided. As a novel result, proper mathematical context for the quasi 3D method is given and the underlying assumptions are laid out. The implementation of the 2D models is approached from a general angle, strengthening the foundation for future research.
