Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If static or low-frequency magnetic fields are used for levitation and propulsion, then the system is simpler to implement, but the efficiency and capability to lift and propel mass is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by transitioning from static or low-frequency magnetic fields to high-frequency spinning poly-phased electromagnetic fields. The controller dynamically switches the electromagnetic field generators to create rotating fields that spin at high frequencies, enabling the electrodes to generate time-varying electromagnetic fields that are far more effective at lifting and propelling mass while maintaining system simplicity through electronic control rather than mechanical complexity.
2Force
If high-strength spinning poly-phased electromagnetic fields are generated, then the lift and propulsion capability is significantly improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies segmentation by dividing the electromagnetic field generation system into multiple independent electromagnetic field generators, each associated with specific electrodes. The controller segments the control task by dynamically switching between different generators and electrodes to create the spinning poly-phased fields. This modular approach enables high field strength through coordinated operation of multiple components while managing complexity through systematic control of segmented elements.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies universality by designing the electromagnetic field generators to perform multiple functions - they can generate different phases of electromagnetic fields, switch between different electrode configurations, and operate at various frequencies. This multi-functionality allows the system to achieve high-strength spinning poly-phased fields capable of both levitation and propulsion without requiring separate specialized systems, thereby managing complexity through versatile components.
3Adaptability or versatility
If dynamic switching of electromagnetic field generators is implemented, then the ability to create complex spinning fields is enhanced, but the control system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies periodic action through the dynamic switching of electromagnetic field generators, which operates in regular cycles to create the spinning poly-phased electromagnetic fields. The controller periodically switches between different generators and electrode configurations in a systematic sequence, enabling the generation of complex rotating field geometries. This periodic switching pattern provides adaptability and versatility in field generation while managing control complexity through repetitive, predictable control cycles rather than arbitrary complex sequences.
