Finite Element Modeling of Thin Conductors in Frequency-Domain

This paper describes a technique that allows representing thin wires in finite element models very efficiently and accurately by idealized line elements. The approach exploits the analytical solution of the problem of the wire taken in isolation to correct the finite element solution of the problem of the idealized wire with vanishing radius. The method is validated in the 2D magnetodynamics frequency-domain case for systems of parallel wires
