Modelling of realistic electromagnetic problems is presented by partial differential equations (FDEs) that link the magnetic and electric fields and their sources. Thus, the direct application of the analytic method to realistic electromagnetic problems is challenging, especially when modeling structures with complex geometry and/or magnetic parts. In order to overcome this drawback, there are a lot of numerical techniques available (e.g. the finite element method or the finite difference method) for the resolution of these PDEs. Amongst these methods, the finite element method has become the most common technique for magnetostatic and magnetodynamic problems.

To solve problems with complex geometry it is considered the possibility of application of irregular mesh and the use of various numerical methods using them. Discrete analogues of the Beltrami-Mitchell equations are obtained by the control volume method using the rectangular grid and the finite element method of control volume using the Delaunay triangulation. The efficiency of using the Delaunay triangulation, Voronoi diagrams and the finite element method of control volume in a test case is demonstrated.


The finite element method has become established as a powerful tool for the solution of many problems of continuum mechanics where its physical interpretation, by analogy with discrete problems of structural analysis permits the user to exercise a considerable degree of insight and judgement in its use. Further it is now a recognized mathematical procedure of approximation which embraces many older methodologies (such as the finite difference method) as a subclass. In the field of geological studies its impact is fairly recent and only a limited application has been made to date. The techniques used here have been limited to those established over a decade ago in the parallel fields and recent developments and possibilities barely touched upon. In this paper the author therefore attempts to ( a ) outline some of the general mathematical and practical aspects of the method with illustrations from various fields which are relevant to geological problems, ( b ) survey accomplishments already made in geology and geotechnical fields, and ( c ) suggest some possible new extensions of application.

An enhanced multi-grid method eliminating the error correction process of the conventional multi-grid method is presented for solving Poissonian problems and tested on two simple two-dimensional magnetostatic field problems. The finite element method (FEM) was used to solve for the vector potential in a sequence of grids. The gains in computation time are shown to be immense compared to the standard multi-grid methods, especially as the matrix system grows in size. These gains are very useful in solving electromagnetic problems using the finite element method.

Combined the analytic method with the finite element method, the data necessary for calculating the heat distribution ratio for high speed cutting was mined first, and the experimental result was used to validate the authenticity of finite element modeling. Then, the ratio of heat distribution for high speed cutting based on the analytic model was obtained by customizing the special subroutine developed by the authors, which provides a new method for calculating the heat distribution.

Electromagnetic devices are present everywhere in our daily life. In particular, they extremely play an important role  in the fields of the electrical system. Therefore, the modeling and analyzing the electromagetic problems become currently a matter of concern and topicality for researchers and designers of electrical devices. This paper introduces a finite element method to compute accurate distributions of leakage and fringing fluxes with air-gap variations, and eddy current losses of the magnetic circuits, that cannot generally be solved by a direct analytic method. The method is approached for the magnetic flux density formulation.

Effective numerical technique for treatment of inclined boundary in the finite element method was introduced. Finite element method was frequently used to analyze hydraulic phenomena in the coastal zone because it can be applied to irregular and complex geometry. In this study, we introduced the way to treat the boundary condition over an inclined bottom.

The purpose of this paper is to compare calculation of internal forces and deformations of slabs for two calculation methods: the finite element method and the finite difference method. Two concrete slabs have been analysed. In the case of the finite element method, different element mesh are used, providing, thus, solutions in different variants. The calculation and algorithms is based on a thin slab theory. Variants calculate in program Scia Engineer effects of shearing forces by means of the Midlins theory or thin slab theory. Algorithms for the calculation were developed in Matlab.
