Electromagnetic interference (EMI) is a significant challenge in power electronic systems, affecting their efficiency, reliability, and overall electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). Understanding EMI is therefore essential for designing robust and high-performance power electronic systems.
Despite its subtleness, EMC simulation has matured to provide significant contributions to the EMC design for power electronics.
This workshop provides a comprehensive overview of the EMC simulation of power electronic systems, covering circuit topologies, 3D modeling techniques, and recent progresses in the application of machine learning. Participants of the workshop will explore the challenges of modeling EMI in power electronics. The audience shall understand the goals and limits of different modeling approaches.
Demonstrations of modeling approaches using circuit and 3D simulation, as well as applying machine learning for multi-objective optimization will be given.
