Eddy Currents and Corner Singularities

Eddy current problems are addressed in a bidimensional setting where the conducting medium is non-magnetic and has a corner singularity. For any fixed parameter linked to the skin depth for a plane interface, we show that the flux density is bounded near the corner unlike the perfect conducting case. Then as goes to zero, the first two terms of a multiscale expansion of the magnetic potential are introduced to tackle the magneto-harmonic problem. The heuristics of the method are given and numerical computations illustrate the obtained accuracy.
