Electromagnetics

Electromagnetics

I would love to have Electromagnetic capabilites in Simulation Mechancial.  We use both permanent magnets and electromagnets in our designs.  A good tool that would simulate both static and dynamic situations in 3D would be wonderful.

 

A simple example:  Permanent magnets are to be used to mount breakaway tooling in a machine.  How large and powerful are the magnets required to be? How far apart should they be?  What does the force to distance curve look like as the part is knocked off?

 

Electomagnetic design would also allow for design of motors and solenoids.

 

I seems that should not be too much of leap from the electrostatics available and a whole lot more useful.
