Coupled electromagnetic–thermal–mechanical modelling of induction heating.
Research
Thin steel sheets and belts buckle when heated by induction, and the buckled shape changes the electromagnetic field and, with it, the temperature distribution. My work builds finite element models that resolve this two-way coupling: an efficient structural shell formulation for the sheet, combined with continuum eddy-current and heat-conduction models, together with analytical models that explain the post-buckling behaviour.
Part of the FFG BRIDGE project Induction-Buckling in cooperation with Berndorf Band GmbH.
