Abstract

A method, apparatus, system and computer-readable medium for designing and/or simulating electrodynamic machinery are disclosed to, among other things, optimize one or more performance characteristics by manipulating structural and/or functional characteristics of the constituent components of an electrodynamic machine. According to the various embodiments, a motor designer can create a new motor design by modeling a rotor-stator structure to design and/or simulate electrodynamic machines that implement, for example, conically shaped magnets and accompanying field pole members.
