In this research work, an improved two-dimensional semi-analytical subdomain based method for performance computation in IPM machine considering infinite-/finite-magnetic material permeability in pseudo-Cartesian coordinates by using hyperbolic functions has been presented. In the developed technique, all subdomains are divided into periodic or non-periodic regions with homogeneous or non-homog...

Shape-programmable matter is a class of active materials whose geometry can be controlled to potentially achieve mechanical functionalities beyond those of traditional machines. Among these materials, magnetically actuated matter is particularly promising for achieving complex time-varying shapes at small scale (overall dimensions smaller than 1 cm). However, previous work can only program thes...

Bimagnetic FePt/CoFe2O4 nanoparticles having a bricklike morphology were synthesized by growing a soft magnetic CoFe2O4 phase on FePt cubic nanoparticle seeds. The size of the soft phase could be controlled by tuning the material ratio of the FePt seeds to the CoFe2O4 component. To obtain magnetic hardening, the as-synthesized bricklike nanoparticles were annealed at elevated temperatures under...

A trend of increased Electric Power in Aircraft stresses the need of robust, low weight systems with low losses. New hard and soft magnetic materials have made it feasible to work with high speed and high frequency. Applications of new soft magnetic materials and hard magnetic materials like NeFeB magnets have enabled high density power generation systems. A new concept comprising a high speed ...
