Self-bearing motors (SBMs) or Bearingless motors, are electric motors with a magnetically integrated bearing function. The main advantages are an increased power density and a reduced shaft length which softens the performance limitations imposed by rotor dynamics. Furthermore, SBMs extend the capability of active magnetic bearings (AMBs) by an ext...

In design of rotating machines, analysis of external force is important for stable rotating operation. The various external forces such as unbalance force, seal contact force and rotor dynamic fluid force effect on the rotor system, dynamic characteristics of rotating system is changed by the external forces. The external force can vary depending o...

Active magnetic bearings are commonly applied in high-speed rotors in the medium to high power range to replace rolling-element or oil-film bearings. They require less maintenance and provide a number of unique benefits owing to their contactless suspension and active control. A rotor construction with integrated compressors or turbines results in...

Due to the capacity of outputting both the high precision torque and the instantaneous large torque, the vernier-gimballing magnetically suspended flywheel (VGMSFW) is regarded as the key actuator for spacecraft. In this paper, a 5-DOF active VGMSFW is presented. The 3-DOF translation and 2-DOF deflection motions of the rotor are respectively reali...

This paper presents a decoupled bearingless cross-flow fan (CFF) that operates at a supercritical speed, thereby increasing the maximum achievable rotational speed and fluid dynamic power. In magnetically levitated CFF rotors, the rotational speed and fan performance are limited by the bending resonance frequency. This is primarily defined by the l...

Active magnetic bearings are complex mechatronic systems that consist of mechanical, electrical, and software parts, unlike classical rolling bearings. Given the complexity of this type of system, fault detection is a critical process. This paper presents a new and easy way to detect faults based on the use of a fault dictionary and machine learnin...
