Control of drive trains incorporating magnetic gears [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This is a thesis about the control of magnetic gears. A decade ago (2001) the first modern prototype magnetic gear box was constructed using rare earth magnets (NdFeB). Magnetic gear boxes have some desirable properties not found in their mechanical gear

Magnetic Gears and Their Structural Limitations

open access: yes, 2019
Magnetic gears present significant structural design challenges, because metallic/electrically conductive structures are highly undesirable as they would lead to significant efficiency reductions. Additionally, most non-electrically conductive structural

Analytical field calculation for linear tubular magnetic gears using equivalent anisotropic magnetic permeability

open access: yes, 2012
Linear magnetic gears take the definite merit of direct force amplification or speed reduction without using any bulky, inefficient rotary-to-linear mechanism.

Comparison of Axial Magnetic Gears Based on Magnetic Composition Topology Differences

open access: yesEnergies, 2018
This paper proposes a design and implementation of an axial type magnetic gear (MG) based on the composition of the magnetic arrangement. We report a quantitative comparison of two MG topologies with rectangular magnets arranged in series and parallel ...

From Flybys to Sample Return: A Review of Space Probes and Robotic Sampling Technologies for Small Bodies

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

Magnetic gears – an essential enabler for the next generation’s electromechanical drives

open access: yes, 2008
New magnetic gears show promise as replacements for mechanical gears, not only because of high reliability and low maintenance, but also because of superior torque-to-weight ratios. A superior torqueto- weight ratio is most unexpected but is surfacing as

Contactless Mechanical Components: Gears, Torque Limiters and Bearings

open access: yesMachines, 2014
Contactless mechanical components are mechanical sets for conversion of torque/speed, whose gears and moving parts do not touch each other, but rather they provide movement with magnets and magnetic materials that exert force from a certain distance ...

Multi‐Platform Deployments of Low‐Cost Devices for Cetacean Passive Acoustic Monitoring

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Recent advances in affordable, user‐friendly devices offer new opportunities to overcome cost constraints of underwater passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) and expand acoustic data collection. In this study, we deployed low‐cost acoustic recorders and underwater cameras across a range of platforms in the Western Mediterranean, including fishing gear ...
