Abstract :
A 3D magnetostatic formulation in terms of the magnetic scalar potential is used to simulate a long dipole magnet. The translatory symmetric part of the model is discretised by a combination of finite elements and Legendre polynomials, which results in a substantial reduction of the model size.
