- // This code shows how to perfom a magnetostatic analysis on a 2D cross-section of a

- // calculated based on the virtual work principle for an increasing mechanical angle.

- // the total geometry (the motor has 4 pairs of poles). In order to link the rotor and
- // stator domains at their interface a general mortar-based continuity condition is used.
