  • Abstract
    An approach based on the double Lagrange multipliers is developed using the finite element method in order to impose complex periodic or anti-periodic boundary conditions. The magnetostatic equations are solved using the vector or scalar potential formulations. In order to show the possibilities of the proposed approach, an example of application is studied and the results are discussed.
