... by sensitivity and mathematical uniqueness issues, as the magnetic flux distribution sensed at the boundary of a structure can be similar for dissimilar flaw geometries or flaw depths. This paper investigates the use of feedback control based on measured magnetic flux at a point on the boundary of the structure...

... the lateral vibration of rotating machines. The aim of the present paper is to investigate the dynamic behavior of transformer eddy current dampers integrated in a mechanical structure. The electromechanical system is modeled using the Lagrange approach in terms of the magnetic flux linkages...

... include the stator coils, the squirrel cage rotor bars, and the magnetic flux routing section. The final bond graph spans electrical, magnetic, and mechanical energy domains, and contains common motor faults. From this bond graph. state equations were extracted and simulations performed. Simulated were...
