  • Abstract
    In finite-element codes where the magnetic field is split into a reduced magnetic intensity and the gradient of a scalar field, the computational effort spent in calculating the field due to impressed currents can be great. This contribution seeks to show that there are an infinite number of ways of calculating the field due to these currents, and that a proper choice can greatly increase the computational efficiency of the finite-element method.
