An inventor traces the evolution of a single engineering idea, from Michael Faraday’s first motors to levitating trains ...

Increasing the number of turns on the coil of wire The image below illustrates a simple experiment to demonstrate electromagnetic induction. The direction of a motor effect force can be found ...

The EMALS is an electromagnetic catapult that relies upon a linear induction motor, rather than a traditional steam piston, to launch aircraft. The Ford-class aircraft carriers are the most expensive ...

However, one of the challenges associated with these motors is the electromagnetic vibration and noise they produce during operation. Recent research has focused on understanding the sources of ...
