Magnetic bearings and electrodynamic systems represent a rapidly evolving field in which contactless support of rotating components is achieved through the elegant interplay of magnetic forces and ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. It's often necessary to understand the behavior of magnetic components during operation, primarily when applied to ...

TRAINS that float on air may be the most famous objects borne by magnetic fields. But magnetic forces can also support other, less visible objects: the spinning shafts, for example, hidden at the ...

Smaller, streamlined electronics make lubricant-free, low-friction magnetic bearings feasible for more rotating machines. • Magnetic bearings support rotating shafts in five axes without solid or ...

Ising modeller: a D-Wave quantum processor has simulated a 3D magnet. (Courtesy: D-Wave Systems) Researchers in Canada have used a D-Wave quantum processing unit to solve a computationally challenging ...

One of the most demanding applications of real-time control is the active magnetic bearing (AMB). Suspending a shaft rotating faster than 10,000 RPMs in a magnetic field with a gap of .015 ...
