The Experimental Testing of an Active Magnetic Bearing/Rotor System Undergoing Base Excitation

Active Magnetic Bearings (AMB) are a relatively recent innovation in bearing technology. Unlike conventional bearings, which rely on mechanical forces originating from fluid films or physical contact to support bearing loads, AMB systems utilize magnetic fields to levitate and support a shaft in an...
