Abstract :
The concept of robust optimization of electromagnetic devices using finite-element models is presented. An original "trellis" experimental design is used to achieve the optimization process and a robustness analysis is done using the signal-to-noise ratio. The robustness study deals with modeling and building noises and is applied to the optimal design of a linear tubular actuator.
