The Centre employs the latest commercial electromagnetic design and analysis software.

Vector FIelds Opera and Infolytica Magnet are used in the simulation of 2D and 3D electromagnetic applications such as the design and optimization of novel electrical machines, non destructive evaluation, sensors and actuators, permanent magnet devices and high frequency applications.

The following solvers are available:
