Investigation of variable field generation as a universal solution to inverse magnetostatic design problems

Current advancement and innovation in the use of magnetic fields for various applications has motivated the investigation of inverse methodologies to design magnetic systems that produce unique or complex field patterns. Variable Field Generation was previously introduced as a possible solution to inverse magnetostatic problems. By defining an inverse magnetic problem using this algorithm, the magnetic design necessary to produce a desired field pattern can be found more robustly than with using other methods. This paper briefly examines the current expansions and advancement of the program since its conception. The universality of the Variable Field Generation was evaluated, resulting in a couple of new observations, which are described in this paper. Finally, the possible application of the Variable Field Generation algorithm for the invention of a dynamic magnetic field generator and the design of currently proposed magnetic systems are discussed.
