Optimal Design of Stator and Mover of Surface Motor Based on Integrated Optimization

Abstract

The optimal design problem for a stator and a mover of a surface motor, which is a multi-objective optimization problem, is transformed into a single objective constrained optimization problem in this letter. The optimal design problem is solved by the integrated optimization system consisting of Particle Swarm Optimization, Radial Basis Function Network, and Electromagnetic Field simulator. While the obtained shapes of a surface motor are evaluated, the advantage of the proposed approach is also verified.
