Abstract
Using the finite-element model (FEM) to achieve the optimal design of electromagnetic devices is a complex and time-consuming process. Space-mapping techniques reduce computation cost by aligning two models with different granularities, namely, a coarse model and a fine model. In this paper, Kriging output space mapping (OSM), an original space-mapping technique based on adaptive nonlinear corrective projection, is proposed and compared with a conventional OSM technique. The device for optimal sizing is a five-phase linear induction motor, which is represented through two modeling levels: 1) coarse (Kriging model) and 2) fine (2-D FEM). An advantage of this new technique is its ability to provide a sufficiently accurate model for each objective and constraint function and make the coarse model converge effectively toward the fine model.
