Segmenting the start box from the generator reduces weight and cost by eliminating oversized equipment for mismatched functions.
Replacing Nd with lighter Y and La in the R-T-B structure reduces moving object weight without degrading magnetic properties for rotating machines.
Piezoelectric materials apply bi-axial stress to magnetostrictive electrode bars, altering magnetic permeability to eliminate stator Joule losses.
Integrated control windings manipulate magnetic flux to regulate output voltage, eliminating complex external shunt regulation systems.
A transfer robot repositions a magnetic field control unit to expand the working area for micro-robots without increasing coil size or energy consumption.
A flexible bearing connection transfers bending moments to the stator in direct drive generators.
