The research group of Electromechanics in the unit of Electrical Engineering at the Faculty of Information Technology and Communication Sciences at Tampere University focuses on numerical electromagnetics and magnetic materials. We work at the interface of electromagnetic theory, computational science, physics of magnetic materials and electrical engineering applications of practical importance. The vision is to integrate advanced electromagnetic modeling tools together with practical design of electromagnetic energy conversion devices, such as electrical machines, transformers, inductors and energy harvesters.
The research group is now starting a 5-year European Research Council funded project related to development of electromagnetic modeling tools for magnetic components used in power electronics applications. In particular, we aim at developing multiscale power loss models for ferrite and tape-wound magnetic cores of inductors and transformers as well as multistrand windings used in wireless power transfer applications. New measurement setups and prototypes of such devices will also be built during the project.
