An Alternative Multi-Physics-Based Methodology for Strongly Coupled Electro-Magneto-Mechanical Problems

The analysis of complex systems tends to be approached through a separation and simplification the main macro phenomena and, thus, addressed dedicated techniques, tools, algorithms. A smart interesting possibility, instead, is represented by so-called model-based design analysis, which allows one interface coming from interactions different physical natures. This paper aims propose multi-physics Matlab/Simulink®-based architecture that integrate general strongly non-linear coupling phenomena, taking efforts two novel implemented bi-directional co-simulation routines based on Spice® ESRF Radia® engines. Emphasis discussion description algorithms processes characteristic these routines, allow analog electronic magneto dynamic domain’s integration under single simulation environment. To highlight reliability multi-domain validate reported results, comparison with experimental measures obtained an innovative MEMS electromagnetic actuator are proposed.
