The paper deals with the application of a non-conforming domaindecomposition methodto the problem of the computation of induced currents in electric engineswith moving conductors.The eddy currents model is considered as a quasi-staticapproximation of Maxwellequations and we study its two-dimensional formulation with either themodified magnetic vector potential or the magnetic field as primary variable.Two discretizations are proposed, the first one based on curved finiteelementsand the second one based on iso-parametric finite elements in both thestatic and movingparts. The coupling is obtained by means of the mortar element method(see [CITE])and the approximation on the whole domain turns out to be non-conforming.In bothcases optimal error estimates are provided. Numerical tests are then proposed in the case of standard first order finiteelements to test the reliability and precision of the method. An applicationof the method to study the influence of the free part movement on thecurrents distribution is also provided.
