The paper presents a surrogate‑assisted optimization framework for designing a seven‑parameter current‑excited electromagnetic coil, coupling a 2‑D axisymmetric FEM model with a Matern 5/2 Gaussian‑process surrogate. Sequential Bayesian optimization using expected improvement (EI) is compared with COBYLA and BOBYQA, showing that the ranking of methods depends on the FEM evaluation budget and that different methods excel at early progress, terminal response, or computational cost. A retrospective study indicates no clear advantage of EI over posterior‑mean ranking on this smooth response surface, and the results are specific to the axisymmetric benchmark used.
arXiv:2606. 09037v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) design requires balancing conflicting objectives and multi-physics constraints, while modern optimization workflows face three bottlenecks: manual problem setup, high finite element analysis (FEA) cost, and unreliable surrogate-based search in sparse or out-of-distribution regions.
