A coupled Maxwell integrodifferential model for magnetization processes

Abstract

A mathematical model for instationary magnetization processes is considered, where the underlying spatial domain includes electrically conducting and nonconducting regions. The model accounts for the magnetic induction law that couples the given electrical voltage with the induced electrical current in the induction coil. By a theorem of Showalter on degenerate parabolic equations, theorems on existence, uniqueness, and regularity of the solution to the associated Maxwell integrodifferential system are proved.
