Electromagnetic force on a current carrying wire

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

A varying current (square wave or antyng) passing through a wire. A metalic strip has kept so cose to it. wire connected to cathode and metal to anode. Metal sheelt is fixed and wire is flexible. Can the magnetic force acting on the wire due to eddycurrents in sheet is possible? (comsol 5.3)

Or in general how can we simulate the magnetic field generated around a current carying wire, and how can we simulate magnetic forces. Thanks in advance
