The general introduction on the equations gives a broad scientific knowledge and understanding into the links between the quasi-static magnetic field and electric field systems and conservation equations for energy, mass and momentum. This allows formulating and designing complex coupled systems that can be simplified.
In the second part concerning the practical modeling of electromagnetic devices ample attention is paid to both numerical accuracy and good engineering pragmatism. The flexibility, large appliability and limitations of the used software is put into evidence.
We give a very general overview of the different numerical methds that are available and commonly used to solve field problems (electric and magnetic fields, temperature, concentration). The focus is on a generic approach that provides a global link between the different discretization methods such that they can even be combined. In this way we give a global background to model complex problems rather than focusing on the usage of existing software packages (Magnet, Cosmos, Comsol, ....
Having in-depth knowledge and understanding of exact sciences with the specificity of their application to engineering.
Having in-depth knowledge and understanding of integrated structural design methods in the framework of a global design strategy.
Having in-depth knowledge and understanding of the advanced methods and theories to schematize and model complex problems or processes.
Having a broad scientific knowledge, understanding and skills to be able to design, produce and maintain complex mechanical, electrical and/or energy systems with a focus on products, systems and services. E.g. codepo project, courses around renewable, sustainable mobility,...
Having an in-depth understanding of safety standards and rules with respect to mechanical, electrical and energy systems.
