The course will be presented by CEDRAT TECHNOLOGIES
engineers, experienced in the eld of the rotating electric
machines, and in collaboration with the Professor A
LBERT
F
OGGIA

(
LEG
-
ENSIEG
-
INPG
).
During these three days, we will privilege the exchanges
and interactivity in order to allow each participant to nd the
answers to its questions.
Exercises,
applications
and
illustrations,
(numerical
computation in 2D or 3D dimension with the FLUX software),
will embellish the program.
