In this paper, a coupled magneto-mechanical finite-element model is briefly presented and then used to determine the different electromagnetical strains of a structure mechanically closed to a single-phase stator of a switched reluctance motor. Magnitudes of the magnetostrictive forces and of the magnetic forces, such as their relative importance in the structure strain, are given for different current excitations.
