We propose mixed and hybrid formulations for the three‐dimensional magnetostatic problem. Such formulations are obtained by coupling finite element method inside the magnetic materials with a boundary element method. We present a formulation where the magnetic field is the state variable and the boundary approach uses a scalar Dirichlet‐Neumann map to describe the exterior domain. Also, we propose a second formulation where the magnetic induction is the state variable and a vectorial Dirichlet‐Neumann map is used to describe the outer field. Numerical discretizations with “edge” and “face” elements are proposed, and for each discrete problem we study an “inf‐sup” condition. © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
