Outline of Final Research Achievements

Recently, in the field of electronics, engineers who understand various fields are required. But now, effective educational tools to foster engineers who are familiar with diverse fields are not provided for general use.
In this study, we developed a simulator with a graphical user interface (GUI) for education using Matlab, which combined the electromagnetic (EM) field simulator and the circuit simulator. They are combined by current source method that considered fringe effect. By the transient simulation, the behavior of the proposed simulator is confirmed.
