superconducting materials are capable of trapping extremely high magnetic fields. this property and meissner effect of superconductors causes a levitation force between bulk superconductors and a permanent magnet (pm). this levitation force has possible industrial applications such as permanent magnet guideways (pmg). because of the high price of permanent magnets, the optimization of pmg desig...

nanocrystalline particles of barium hexaferrite has been prepared by the sol–gel auto- combustion method using iron and barium nitrate with a ba:fe molar ratio of 1:10. the effect of fuel such as citric acid and aspartic acid was investigated on the structure and magnetic properties of nanoparticles. the results revealed that the formation of barium hexaferritefine particles is influenced by mo...

For low-field NMR, NdFeB permanent magnet arrangements are proposed to provide the static polarizing magnetic field. Especially a parallel and a circular arrangement of the permanent magnets, iron yokes and small shim magnets were tested and improved by COMSOL. The intent was to guide the design and the construction of NMR magnets by calculating the magnetic field strength and the associated fi...

A methodology is proposed for optimal shaping of permanent magnets with non-conventional and complex geometries, used in synchronous motors. The algorithm includes artificial neural network-based surrogate model and multi-objective search based optimization method that will lead to Pareto front solutions. An interior permanent magnet topology with crescent-shaped magnets is also introduced as t...

Many robotics systems rely on permanent magnets, from Lorentz force actuators to magnetic imaging devices. However, permanent magnets are often expensive and there is little opportunity for customization. Machining unmagnetized magnets and then magnetizing them in a lab setting reduces costs and allows researchers to experiment with different geometries and magnetic field parameters. In the pas...

The use of permanent magnets (PM) is increasing in permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSM) to fulfill the requirements of high efficiency machines in modern industry. PMSM are widely used in industrial applications, wind power plants and the automotive industry. Since PMSM are used in different environmental conditions, the long-term effect of NdFeB-based magnets at high temperatures and t...
