Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Computational electromagnetics (CEM) methods are widely used in the analysis of scattering and radiation characteristics of a complex electromagnetic (EM) environment, which are widely used in microwave remote sensing, radar detection, stealth design, and so on.

This Special Issue aims to showcase new ideas, algorithms, and applications related to the concept of computational electromagnetics and beyond. Possible topics are as follows:

  • Full-wave and high-frequency computational electromagnetics methods;
  • Complicated scattering mechanisms and analysis from antennas and circuit structures;
  • The application of electromagnetic simulation methods.

We look forward to receiving your contributions.

Prof. Dr. Sandra Costanzo
Guest Editor

This paper discusses the construction and operating principle of an axial flux electric machine with hybrid excitation. Based on computer simulations using the Finite Element Method, an analysis was conducted with changes in the geometry of the magnetic circuit, which involves the rotation of the rotor disks relative to each other on the operating parameters of the machine. Both the generator state of operation, in the meaning of analyzing the induced voltage (adjustment at −11% ÷ +64%) and the cogging torque, and the motor state of operation, in the meaning of analyzing the ripple of the electromagnetic torque (possible reduction by almost 30%), were examined. The article concludes with observations on how the change in the angle of the rotor disks affects the efficiency of the disk machine with axial flux and hybrid excitation. Full article

The demand for fast and accurate electromagnetic solutions to support current and emerging technologies has fueled the rapid development of various machine learning techniques for applications such as antenna design and optimization, microwave imaging, device diagnostics, and more. Multi-fidelity (MF) surrogate modeling methods have shown great promise in significantly reducing computational costs associated with surrogate modeling while maintaining high model accuracy. This work offers a comprehensive review of the available MF surrogate modeling methods in electromagnetics, focusing on specific methodologies, related challenges, and the generation of variable-fidelity datasets. The article is structured around the two main types of electromagnetic problems: forward and inverse. It begins by summarizing key machine learning concepts and limitations. This transitions to discussing multi-fidelity surrogate model architectures and low-fidelity data techniques for the forward problem. Subsequently, the unique challenges of the inverse problem are presented, along with traditional solutions and their limitations. Following this, the review examines MF surrogate modeling approaches tailored to the inverse problem. In conclusion, the review outlines promising future directions in MF modeling for electromagnetics, aiming to provide fundamental insights into understanding these developing methods. Full article
