Adaptive control of an active magnetic bearing flywheel system using neural networks
(North-West University, 2010)The School of Electrical, Electronic and Computer Engineering at the North-West University in Potchefstroom has established an active magnetic bearing (AMB) research group called McTronX. This group provides extensive ... -
Delevitation modelling of an active magnetic bearing supported rotor
(2014)The problem addressed in this thesis is the delevitation modelling of an active magnetic bearing (AMB) supported rotor. A system model needs to be developed that models the highly non-linear interaction of the rotor with ... -
Development of an integrated co-processor based power electronic drive
(North-West University, 2008)The McTronX research group at the North-West University is currently researching self-sensing techniques for Active Magnetic Bearings (AMB). The research is part of an ongoing effort to expand the knowledge base on AMBs ... -
Investigation into backup bearing life using delevitation severity indicators
(North-West University (South Africa) , Potchefstroom Campus, 2016)Active magnetic bearings (AMBs) are inherently flawed in terms of possible failure from either mechanical, electronic or software components. Component failure could induce a rotor delevitation event (RDE) during operation ...
