This book is the collection of the contributions offered at the
International Symposium on Electromagnetic Fields in Electrical
Engineering, ISEF '87, held in Pavia, Italy, in September 1987. The
Symposium was attended by specialists engaged in both theoretical
and applied research in low-frequency electromagnetism. The
charming atmosphere of Pavia and its ancient university provided a
very effective environment to discuss the latest results in the
field and, at the same time, to enjoy the company or colleagues and
friends coming from over 15 countries. The contributions have been
grouped into 7 chapters devoted to fundamental problems, computer
programs, transformers, rotating electrical machines, mechanical
and thermal effects, various applications and synthesis,
respectively. Such a classification is merely to help the reader
because a few papers could be put in several chapters. Over the
past two decades electromagnetic field computations have received a
big impulse by the large availability of digital computers with
better and better performances in speed and capacity. Many various
methods have been developed but not all of them appear convenient
enough for practical engineering use. In fact, the technical and
industrial challenges set some principal attributes and criteria
for good computation methods. They should be relatively easy to
use, fit into moderately sized computers, yield useful design data,
maintain flexibility with m1n1mum cost in time and effort.
In the last thirty years optimization theory has been extensively
applied to the optimal design of mechanical structures and, in
general, to the solution of inverse problems in structural
mechanics. In electromagnetism, however, the impact of optimization
methods is much more recent. The present book is the first one on
the subject of inverse problems and optimal design in electricity
and magnetism. Filling this gap in the literature was the primary
goal of the authors. The secondary one was to provide a
comprehensive reference book offering a broad view of the subject
ranging from theory to computer implementations. Having this in
mind, the authors tried to write a book which might serve as a
textbook for graduate students in electrical engineering as well as
a reference for applied mathematicians and researchers. Possible
applications pertain to a great many different areas: electrical
machines, high voltage engineering, nuclear magnetic resonance
spectrography, electron optics, plasma techniques, etc.
