Abstract :
Numerical instability occurs in an analysis of a vibration with magnetic damping, or an electromagnetic and structural coupled problem. In this paper, the numerical instability of the coupled analysis is examined by the finite element in time. It is confirmed that the simultaneous method is unconditionally stable even if the magnetic field and the time increment are large. For the staggered method, we obtain the conditions where the numerical instability occurs
