Abstract
A geometric multigrid (MG) method for the efficient solution of 3D non-line ar magnetostatic field problems is presented. A finite element method (FEM) with edge elements is used to describe the magnetic vector potential. A nu merical example is presented to demonstrate the efficiency of the MG method not only for linear, bur also for non-linear problems.
