Nonlinear Dynamics of a Rotor Supported by Homopolar Magnetic Bearings with Saturation

An objective in the design of high performance machinery is to minimize weight so magnetic bearings are often designed to operate slightly lower than the magnetic material saturation. Further weight reduction in the bearings requires operation in the nonlinear portion of the B-H curve. This necessit...
