Laser Doppler Vibrometer measurements of the 3D pressure field for the estimation of the radiation force produced by an acoustic standing-wave levitator

Acoustic levitation devices use powerful ultrasonic standing waves to levitate objects in mid-air. We have created a system and method to measure the full harmonic content of the acoustic field accurately. Our study revealed that levitated particles alter ...

Stabilization of electrodynamic bearings with active magnetic dampers

Qingwen Cui

Electrodynamic Bearings (EDBs) are a kind of passive magnetic bearings that exploits the interaction between the induced eddy currents in a conductor and a magnetic field to provide re-storing forces. They have been regarded as an appealing alternative to ...

Sound Isolation and Giant Linear Nonreciprocity in a Compact Acoustic Circulator

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury

Acoustic isolation and nonreciprocal sound transmission are highly desirable in many practical scenarios. They may be realized with nonlinear or magneto-acoustic effects, but only at the price of high power levels and impractically large volumes. In contra ...

Cycling dynamics of the internal kink mode in non-linear two-fluid MHD simulations

Federico David Halpern

The present work describes non-linear simulations leading to a description of diamagnetic thresholds for sawtooth cycles in tokamaks. Provided that a criterion of diamagnetic stabilization for a m/n=1/1 tearing is fulfilled, it is shown that diamagnetic ef ...

Diamagnetic thresholds for sawtooth cycling in tokamak plasmas

Federico David Halpern

The cycling dynamics of the internal kink mode, which drives sawtooth oscillations in tokamak plasmas, is studied using the three dimensional, non-linear magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) code XTOR-2F [H. Lütjens and J.-F. Luciani, J. Comput. Phys. 229, 8130 (2010 ...

Acceleration and inclination sensors based on magnetic levitation

François Barrot

Some fields such as the Monitoring of Civil Engineering Structures, need very sensitive acceleration and inclination sensors with a high resolution at low accelerations (typically less than 1G) and moderate frequencies (typically less than 20 Hz) or very s ...

Preliminary Investigations on a Diamagnetically Levitated Linear Conveyor

Hannes Bleuler, Dominique Chapuis, Roland Moser, François Barrot, Laurent Sache, Thomas Bosgiraud

Diamagnetic levitation is the only passive levitation at room temperature. It is interesting to use this principle for a contactless conveyor in applications where friction and wear-particle contamination should be avoided such as in a microfactory. Using ...
