Best Wishes for 2007...
The whole team of CEDRAT is happy to wish you a Very Happy New Year 2007. May it bring
you joy and prosperity in your individual and professional life.
2006 was the year of the twentieth anniversary of Magsoft. It ended with a joint agreement
between CEDRAT and Adapted Solutions, company specialised in software solutions for
mechatronics and electrical systems. This strategic partnership allows CEDRAT to further
its presence in the market of simulation software and ADAPTED SOLUTIONS strengthen
its international activities. More information are given in this issue.
Besides Portunus, that completes brilliantly our software solutions catalogue, other new
products or versions will highlight the coming year. Motor overlays (now for Brushless PM and
Induction machines, and soon for DC machines) are among the key simulation solutions for
motor design and analysis. InCa also is a promising new package for electrical connection
simulation: the application for busbars design for power electronics is very signicant.
All this opens widely new doors for our close and long term future and strengthen our
position as a leading provider of a complete range of software solutions for electrical and
mechatronic engineering.

Conclusion
The aim of this paper was to give design rules for the electrical
engineer faced to a busbar. Some of them are well known:
using large sheets, multilayer if possible, and overlapping as
much as possible the return path with the rest of the structure.
Some others are not obvious, such as the inuence of holes
and apertures. In this case, intuition becomes often useless,
and simulation useful

The rst International Electric Machines and Drives Conference (IEMDC) was held in 1997, jointly sponsored by the IEEE Power
Engineering Society and the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society in response to the need for an international conference on electric
machines and drives. The Industry Application Society and the Power Electronics Society decided in 1998 to be co-sponsors and
since then the conference is jointly sponsored by the named four societies of IEEE.
IEMDC 2007 is intended top be a gathering for users, designers, and analysts of electric machines and drives, and related power
electronics and controls. It offers an excellent opportunity for the presentation of technical papers to an international forum for
sharing new ideas, experience, and advances in design, control and analysis of electrical machines, and drive systems, analysis,
new materials utilization, and optimization techniques for electrical machine drive systems, and drive components including all
varieties and sizes of electric machinery. Practical applications, operations, maintenance, and the development and harmonizing
international standards related to electric machines and drives are also included
The nal program of IEMDC 2007 is expected to compromise of 370 regular session papers, about 40 special session papers
and 3 plenaries.

Informative &
enjoyable conference
The international attendance (17
different countries represented) made
this event meet worldwide experts in
electrical and mechatronic elds. Their
questionnaire returns show their large
interest in our software solutions. The
strategy shown in our presentations and
demonstration of future product seems
to have been clearly understood and
largely approved. The support provided
during this users conference was a great
plus to this event.
Pre-conference trainings
CEDRAT provided various trainings,
either technical or related to software.
Half a day dedicated to Theory of
induction heating or magnetic materials
was followed by 1,5 day dedicated to
the use of FLUX for various applications:
electrical motors, linear actuators,
induction heating and CAD import and
electric eld computation.

Acknowledgements:
As a conclusion, to introduce isotropic
ferromagnetic materials such as the
SMC inside magnetic actuators (linear or
rotating), it is necessary to reconsider
the design of active parts of associated
magnetic circuits in order to cumulate
the potential prots on both technical
and economical point of view.
For continuous mode (magnetostatic
mode), the interest for the SMC is linked
to the fact that they offer the possibility
to realize complex geometrical shape.
That can be more efcient to improve
the behaviour of magnetic circuit.
(matter prot for example,)
We can note that, relative permeability
of SMC (like X-Somaloy 3P) reaches a
reasonable value.
This will be true if the air-gaps of
actuators we have to consider are
sizeable.
However, at an electromagnetic level,
the great advantage of the SMC is linked
with the variable modes (transient or AC
steady states).
The high value of the resistivity limits
eddy currents. The response time of
magnetic induction diffusion in matter is
