In this paper, we propose a DSP or FPGA based transversal flux eddy current sensor position measurement technique for rotors in high-speed electrical drives using active magnetic bearings. Compared to the state-of-the-art demodulation technique using analog mixers or rectifiers, the published method shows a lower circuit complexity and allows fulfilling the high bandwidth needs of highly dynamic systems as well as the improved accuracy ...

In this paper we study a novel way of induction cooking. Traditionally, an alternating magnetic field is used to induce currents in a ferromagnetic pan to heat foods. We use non-ferromagnetic materials and optimize the design for high repulsive forces in order to levitate the pan while simultaneously heating it and its contents. Our approach is simulation-based to study the influence of different parameters and to perform multidimensional ...
