The MAX IV 3 GeV storage ring, currently under construction, pursues the goal of low electron beam emittance by using a multi-bend achromat magnet lattice, which is realised by having several consecutive magnet elements precision-machined out of a common solid iron block, 2.3-3.4 m long. With this magnet design solution, instead of having 1320 individual magnets, the MAX IV 3 GeV storage ring i...

This study explains a new way to speed control for PMSMs based on the FOC and SVPWM techniques employed in building of permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs). When it comes current control, two inner one outside feedback loops were used. Feedback with FOPID controllers is used optimize performance PMSM motor design. parameters optimized using genetic algorithms MATLAB/Simulink simulations....

This article proposed a detection scheme for three-phase Line start permanent magnet synchronous motor (LSPMSM) under different levels of static eccentricity fault. Finite element method is used to simulate the healthy and faulty LSPMSM with percentages eccentricity. An accurate laboratory test experiment performed evaluate index. Effects loading condition on are also investigated. The fault re...

Studies of the two-dimensional motion of a magnet sphere in the presence of a second, fixed sphere provide a convenient venue for exploring magnet–magnet interactions, inertia, friction, and rich nonlinear dynamical behavior. These studies exploit the equivalence of these magnetic interactions to the interactions between two equivalent point dipoles. We show that magnet–magnet friction plays a ...

This paper describes the NMR/MRI magnets that are currently being developed at the MIT Francis Bitter Magnet Laboratory: 1) a 1.3 GHz NMR magnet; 2) a compact NMR magnet assembled from YBCO annuli; and 3) a persistent-mode, fully-protected 0.5-T/800-mm whole-body MRI magnet.

To control and drive a robotic capsule accurately from outside a patient's body, we present a schema in which the capsule enclosing the imaging device, circuits, batteries, etc is looped by a permanent magnet ring that acts as an actuator. A cuboidal permanent magnet situated outside the patient's body attracts or pushes the magnet ring from different directions to make the capsule move or rota...

BACKGROUND Although there is evidence that hospitals recognized for nursing excellence--Magnet hospitals--are successful in attracting and retaining nurses, it is uncertain whether Magnet recognition is associated with better patient outcomes than non-Magnets, and if so why. OBJECTIVES To determine whether Magnet hospitals have lower risk-adjusted mortality and failure-to-rescue compared with...

Abstract In view of the shortcomings traditional sliding mode control permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM), such as slow convergence, serious speed overshoot and outstanding chattering, an improved dual power approach law is proposed. Combined with equivalent control, a high-order rotor designed by using second-order nonsingular terminal surface, which greatly improves dynamic static perfo...

Despite being a core networking primitive, collection protocols today often suffer from poor reliability (e.g., 70%) in practice, and heavily used protocols have never been evaluated in terms of communication efficiency. Using detailed experimental studies, we describe three challenges that cause existing collection protocols to have poor reliability and waste energy: inaccuracies in link estim...

AIM To assess the feasibility of magnetic resonance defaecography (MRD) in pelvic floor disorders using an open tilting magnet with a 0.25 T static field and to compare the results obtained from the same patient both in supine and orthostatic positions. MATERIALS AND METHODS From May 2010 to November 2011, 49 symptomatic female subjects (mean age 43.5 years) were enrolled. All the patients un...
