Abstract :
In order to compute eddy current distributions in thin conductive nonmagnetic shells, a new integral formulation is proposed. The method is based on a surface impedance condition which takes into account the field variation through depth due to skin effect. It is general and enables the modeling of various problems whatever their skin-depth and avoiding the meshing of the air region.
