I am currently working with Ansys Maxwell for the electromagnetic simulations of electric motors. To automate the simulations with different dimensions of different parts of motor, I would like to write a Matlab script and use it as an interface to control Ansys Maxwell. The FEM results will be provided by Maxwell. Only the commands and instructions are sent from Matlab script to Maxwell. I would like to know if this is possible and if there any resources for the mentioned task. Thank you.

Do you have a solution for your question?
At this time I´m looking for the same kind of code.
Best regards,

There is no direct interface to communicate with Ansys Maxwell from MATLAB. However, you can use the 'system' command in MATLAB to invoke the Ansys Maxwell scripts and store the output in a file. Refer to https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/system.html for more help on using the 'system' command.
You can then process the output files from the simulator in MATLAB to perform the required operations.
