| Description: | International audience ; This paper proposes a novel methodology of the topology optimization method considering eddy current effects. The method is applied on chip inductors modelled by the Finite Element Method (FEM). Aiming to meet a specified inductance value while minimizing eddy current losses, we employ a density-based approach to construct a continuous material distribution. The derivative of the objective function with respect to the material distribution is obtained using the adjoint variable method, then the material layout is iteratively updated via the L-BFGS-B algorithm. The proposed framework is validated on both single-turn and multi-turn inductor structures, achieving designs that satisfy the target performance within a limited number of iterations. A key innovation of this work lies in the integration of field-circuit coupling into the topology optimization framework, enabling the analysis of inductors under complex coil configurations involving both series and parallel connections. Additionally, we present an original derivation of the sensitivity formulation associated with the inductance value ensuring that the optimized inductance meets the design specification. |
