    • Backup bearing modelling for turbo machines with high axial and radial loads 

      Janse van Rensburg, Jan J.; Vanek, Christian; Worlitz, Frank (s.n, 2014)
      The use of active magnetic bearings (AMBs) in turbo machines is an active research topic and the implementation in industrial applications is becoming commonplace. This is especially true when investigating the backup ...

    • The characterization of the severity of rotor delevitation events: a parametric study 

      Janse van Rensburg, Jan J.; Van Schoor, George; Van Vuuren, Pieter A. (s.n, 2012)
      Active magnetic bearing (AMB) failure and the ensuing rotor behavior is a very important aspect of AMB safety. A model for this rotor behavior was developed and was used to characterize the severity of rotor delevitation ...

    • Delevitation modelling of an active magnetic bearing supported rotor 

      Janse van Rensburg, Jan J.; Van Schoor, George; Van Vuuren, Pieter A. (s.nCurran Associates, 2010)
      For active magnetic bearings (AMBs) to be used with confidence in industrial applications, the safe failure of the AMB system should be guaranteed. The exact behaviour of the rotor on the backup bearings (BBs) is relatively ...
