Abstract

The way to handle the uncertainty of design parameters has attracted wide attention in the optimization of electromagnetic designs. The Monte Carlo Method works well when dealing with uncertainties but it consumes too much time and computational resources. This paper proposes a computationally efficient way to achieve robust optimization based on Stochastic Collocation Method and the TEAM 22 problem is used as a verification example. It is demonstrated that the approach combining Stochastic Collocation Method and a genetic algorithm provides high computational efficiency, without losing accuracy compared with the Monte Carlo Method.
