Research on the field of applied electromagnetics is still growing in the world. Many problems have still not been completely investigated in many segments. These segments are: the use of new magnetic materials in electromagnetic devices, the increase of the power (torque) capability and efficiency of electromagnetic devices, new types of electromagnetic devices, the influence of electromagnetic radiation on humans and on electric devices etc. The research programme "Applied Electromagnetics" covers wide span of the above-mentioned problems. The main contributions of the programme for the science development in the period from 1999 to 2003 are the following: -programme solutions for CAD of electromagnetic devices (for example: DC motors, universal motors, synchronous motors, induction motors, classically and electronically comutated PM DC motors, special rotational and linear motors, various electromagnets, contactors and executors of different kinds etc.), grounding systems and lighting conductor systems, - mathematical models for the prediction of magnetic losses in magnetic steel in the case of any periodical magnetization and its inclusion in the finite element method numerical magnetic field calculation, -investigations of the anisotropy and mechanical tensions influences on electromagnetic devices characteristics as a consequence of mechanical material handling (punching, bending), -the development of measuring methods and measuring yokes for the magnetic properties determination of hard and soft magnetic materials with massive and laminated samples, -the development of inverse approach for the solving of different electromagnetic problems with the emphasis on the field source detection and electrical tomography with the use of the special variation of the finite element method, -programme solutions for the construction of the elements of the switch cells and programme solutions for the modelling of the thermal problems at short ciruits in the high voltage transmission lines, -development of didactic computer tools for the analysis, simulation and animation of electromagnetic phenomena. The above-mentioned achievements are reflected in the numerous international journal publications of the researchers, in the international cooperation with recognized international researchers and their laboratories and in the cooperation in the international projects. The international importance and quality of the programme can also be seen on the international level. On the basis of the bilateral cooperation we organized The First Slovenian-Polish Joint Seminar on Computational and Applied Electromagnetics in Maribor in 2001, and the second in Cracow in 2003. In the year 2003 we organized the XI International Symposium on Electromagnetic Fields in Electrical Engineering. Beside Slovenian scientists, nearly 130 foreign scientists from all over the world with 162 registered articles took part in the conference. The great amount of presented articles cover the great scale of our Applied Electromagnetics programme.
