Nonlinear study on a rigid rotor supported by herringbone grooved gas bearings: Theory and validation

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Patrick Hubert Wagner, Philipp Kaspar Bättig, Wanhui Liu

The nonlinear behavior of a rigid rotor supported by herringbone grooved journal gas bearings (HGJBs) was investigated in this study. The two-dimensional narrow groove theory (2D-NGT) was adopted to model the HGJBs. A set of integrated rotor-bearing state ...

Rotor Position Estimation with Hall-Effect Sensors in Bearingless Drives

Yves Perriard, Juan Patricio Tomás Peralta Fierro

The estimation of rotor position is fundamental for the commissioning of magnetically-levitated drives. The sensors required for this measurement must be close to the rotor, often requiring constructive measures that may limit the application potential of ...

Integrated, Eddy-Current-Based Sensing of Rotor Position for Magnetic Levitation

Yves Perriard, Sean Thomas, Juan Patricio Tomás Peralta Fierro

Magnetically-levitated drives are compelling in applications where long-lifetime operation or process chamber encapsulation is a requirement. To exploit these advantages, contactless position sensors are needed for position information of the rotor. Off-th ...

Small scale very high speed slotless permanent magnet motors

Guillaume Paul-André Burnand

This research work has been triggered by an industrial project aimed at modelling and manufacturing a small-scale very high speed motor. Very high speed electrical motors offer the main advantage of reducing the size of a system. Indeed, at constant output ...

MRI after successful eyeWatch(TM) implantation

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, André Mermoud, Sylvain Roy, Adan Villamarin

The eyeWatch(TM) is a new glaucoma drainage device that includes an adjustable mechanism that can vary the resistance to aqueous humor outflow during the postoperative period to reduce the burden of postoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) management. The ...

Small-scale organic Rankine cycle turbo-generator for waste heat recovery on truck engine

Kévin Rosset

Truck engine waste heat recovery (WHR) systems have been investigated for many years. Among them, organic Rankine cycle (ORC) systems show the highest potential, but still lack efficient small-scale expansion devices, in practice. Proposed expanders are of ...

Spatially Sampled Pressure Profile Measurements in Externally Pressurized Gas Journal Bearings

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Eliott Philippe Guenat, Karim Magdi Zakaria Abdelrahman Shalash

Externally pressurized gas journal bearings (EPGJB) are widely adopted to support high speed rotors. This paper presents novel experimental benchmark test data which enables EPGJB model validation. Axial and circumferential pressure profile measurements ar ...

Towards Low Energy Stream Ciphers

Francesco Regazzoni, Subhadeep Banik, Willi Meier

Energy optimization is an important design aspect of lightweight cryptography. Since low energy ciphers drain less battery, they are invaluable components of devices that operate on a tight energy budget such as handheld devices or RFID tags. At Asiacrypt ...

Matryoshka: Hiding Secret Communication in Plain Sight

Christina Fragouli, Iris Safaka

We want to enable a pair of communicating users to exchange secret messages while hiding the fact that secret communication is taking place. We propose a linguistic steganography approach, where each human message is hidden in another human-like message. A ...
