Abstract :
A novel approach to calculating the magneto-quasi-static but frequency-dependent inductance of three-dimensional conductors is presented. A vector surface integral formulation is used, as this requires only a conductor surface discretization, and an excitation source which ensures current conservation is self-consistently computed. Results are presented which demonstrate that the proposed method is effective for computing the inductance and the resistance for general 3-D structures.<>
