I just learned how to move an object in ANSYS Maxwell & electronics. I Hope that you find it helpful .

first you must go with transient solution type.

the objects that need to move could not be cylinder and true curve , so if you need to move cylinder if may go with polyhedron.

after your geometry is completed. separate the moving part and the fixed part with drawing a non cylindrical geometric.

call the new geometry ( the one who separated the moving part and the fixed part) Band.

in the end click on the band and go to Maxwell 3D >> Model >> Motion Setup >> assign a band.

then a window opens. and you can set you parameters like speed, distance and etc.

contact me for more questions.

kind regards

Hi, i was wondering if you could be able to generate an oscillatory movement in the direction of one of the cartesian axes, i need to move a magnet throught a coil but i need it in an oscillatory movement Shahab Kheradmand

I have the same question.

Regards.

To generate an oscillatory movement in the direction of one of the cartesian axes you can use the global variable "Time", that is the variable associated with the time step of your analysis. An exemple: in the field "velocity", in "model setup" window you write the expression: sin(2.0*pi*Time). It will update your velocity in each time step and the displacement will be the integral of velocity in time.
