Abstract :
The paper describes a design environment for electromagnetic devices and systems which links the concepts of variational geometry with sensitivity analysis. The goal is to allow a designer to explore a potential set of solutions to a design problem which has been posed through a rough, parameterized geometric sketch of the desired device
