Abstract
In this article, a finite element (FE) modeling of the punching effect on the magnetic properties of electrical steel sheet is carried out. For that, the modified anhysteretic Sablik model is applied together with the plastic strain distribution obtained from a punching process simulation performed using the software ABAQUS. First, a synchronous electrical machine is simulated including the effect of the punching process, and it shows the degradation of the magnetic flux density at the lamination edges and an increase of the iron losses. Then, results obtained from the magneto-mechanical simulation are investigated in terms of the method used to implement the plastic strain distribution in the FE computation. Two examples have been investigated: a square steel sheet and a tooth of an electrical machine.
