But cogging torque predictions for arbitrary types of machines using the same approach are still troublesome and imprecise. Therefore, a fast optimization process is developed and presented in this paper. Here, the combination of both numerical and analytical simulation results in such a fast method Y1 - 2006 UR - http://bib.iem.rwth-aachen.de/IEMpublications/AltesBib/2006CSCombined.pdf U6 - https://doi.org/10.1109/TMAG.2006.871379 VL - 42 IS - 4 SP - 1211 EP - 1214 PB - IEEE ER -
