Abstract

We are interested in the determination of the local nonlinear magnetic material behaviour in electrical steel sheets due to cutting and punching effects. For this purpose, the inverse problem has to be solved, where the objective function, which penalises the difference between the measured and the simulated magnetic flux density, has to be minimised under a constraint defined according to the corresponding partial differential equation model. We use the adjoint method to efficiently obtain the gradients of the objective function with respect to the material parameters. The optimisation algorithm is low-memory Broyden–Fletcher–Goldfarb–Shanno (BFGS), the forward and adjoint formulations are solved using the finite element (FE) method and the ill-posedness is handled via Tikhonov regularisation, in combination with the discrepancy principle. Realistic numerical case studies show promising results.
