Abstract :
A new method employing the immune algorithm (IA) as the search method for the shape optimization of an electromagnetic device is presented. The method is applied to the shape optimization of a pole face of an electromagnet. For the magnetic field analysis the finite element method is used. It is shown that the proposed method with the IA is very useful for the shape optimization of electromagnetic devices
