Genetic Algorithm and Bezier Curves Based Shape Optimization of Conducting Shields for Low Frequency Magnetic Fields

摘要

Eelectromagnetic shields play a very significant role in modern power and electrical industry. Also, efficient shields are used in medicine, physics, when making electric and magnetic measurements of high sensitivity in order to prevent them from electromagnetic interference. Unfortunately, complete, not perforated shells can not be used in real applications. In this paper we show a new optimization technique, which by coupling the finite element method (FEM) with a genetic algorithm (GA) and Bezier curves, allows to design efficient and esthetic shields.
