    This research offers an optimization design for a three-phase surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous machine (SMPMSM) by employing the computer framework consists of finite element analysis (FEA) and genetic algorithm (GA) utilized in the applications of electric vehicles. This framework aims to evaluate and determine the optimal setting of SMPMSMs, which require maximum average electromagnetic torque (Tem_avg) and minimum its ripple (Tem_rip). Several motor performances, such as magnetic field distribution across the motor, magnetic flux density distribution in the mid air gap, phase back-EMF, electromagnetic torque, and its ripple, are investigated for the initial and optimal designs of PM machines during open-circuit and on-load conditions by using FEA. The important parameter of PM machines, i.e. the magnet pole-arc and slot opening angle are taken into account. In order to determine the objective function of the GA framework, the Tem_avg and the Tem_rip are used to formulate the computing equations where the fitness value provided by the computing framework is further assessed. The GA framework is used to assess the comparison of parameters and motor performance between the initial and optimal designs of 12s/8p PM motors in terms of electromagnetic torque under BLAC operation. Consequently, the framework of FEA and GA has been proven in the design of SMPMSM, which is very viable for electric cars by reducing the magnet materials and electromagnetic torque ripple.

    This paper presents an optimization design for a three-phase 12 mathrm{s}/8 mathrm{p} surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous machine (SMPMSM) with a RM pattern applied in the electric vehicle by using the computing framework of finite element analysis (FEA) and genetic algorithm (GA). The framework is to determine the optimal settings of permanent magnet (PM) motor for higher average electromagnetic torque (T_{em_{-}avg}) and lower its ripple (T_{em_{-}rip}). Several motor performances are investigated for the initial and the optimal designs of PM machines during open-circuit and on-load conditions, i.e., magnetic field distribution across the motor, magnetic flux density distribution in the mid air gap, phase back-EMF, electromagnetic torque, and its ripple through FEA. The magnet pole-arc and slot opening angle of the PM motor are taken into consideration. The T_{em_{-}avg} and the T_{em_{-}rip} are employed to formulate the computing equations to determine the objective function, which is used to search the optimal settings of PM motor in GA framework, where the fitness value produced by the computing framework is further evaluated. The comparison of parameters and motor performances between the initial and the optimal designs of 12s/8p PM motors with the GA framework are validated in terms of electromagnetic torque under BLAC operation using FEA. Therefore, the framework of FEA and GA is verified in reducing the usage of magnet materials and the electromagnetic torque ripple in the design of SMPMSM, which is highly viable for electric vehicle.
