contents This paper introduces a shape optimisation framework for achieving desired mutual inductances (MIs) among coils in 3D space. Utilising a wire modelling approach, the coils are discretised using B-spline curves, with control points (CPs) serving as design variables. The key contribution is the derivation of the shape derivative of the objective function in terms of MIs, enabling the use of gradient-based quasi-Newton optimisation methods. A coil length constraint is also incorporated. The study demonstrates the effectiveness of the framework through numerical examples, validating the theoretical and numerical developments. This approach addresses the largely unexplored area of magnetostatic MI optimisation within the wire modelling framework, offering a computationally efficient alternative to finite element methods etc.
