Original abstract

Interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) design requires balancing conflicting objectives and multi-physics constraints, while modern optimization workflows face three bottlenecks: manual problem setup, high finite element analysis (FEA) cost, and unreliable surrogate-based search in sparse or out-of-distribution regions. To address these limitations, we propose an end-to-end automated IPMSM design optimization framework that integrates retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) for structured problem definition with an uncertainty-aware FEA-AI hybrid optimization pipeline. A Design agent, connected to a motor textbook through RAG, provides domain-knowledge-based options and engineering tips, and compiles an optimization card and a design-of-experiments plan for AI-model training. A Training agent automates electromagnetic FEA, records geometry-validation and solver-failure logs, analyzes failed geometries using ANOVA-based data analysis and LLM reasoning, and invokes a Design Sampling agent to redefine the design space and generate additional samples. An Optimization agent performs GA-based search with uncertainty-driven switching: low-uncertainty candidates are evaluated by AI-surrogate inference, whereas high-uncertainty and reliability-critical Pareto-front or top-K candidates are corrected by high-fidelity FEA and reused for iterative retraining. The framework converts manual, experience-dependent configuration into a reproducible workflow that balances computational cost and prediction reliability. Experimental results under a matched high-fidelity FEA budget show that the proposed hybrid approach achieves better objective performance while maintaining low and further reducible predictive uncertainty, outperforming FEA-only search, which is limited by early budget exhaustion, and AI-only search, which converges to a low-confidence optimum.
