Abstract
The finite element (FE) analysis of electromagnetic fields suffers from slow convergence of linear solvers when there are flat or distorted elements. Similar problems also happen when with layered structures such as laminated steel plates. These problems are attributed to poor matrix conditioning. This paper shows the deflation technique, which replaces small eigenvalues of the FE matrix with zeros, can overcome these problems.
