Delevitation modelling of an active magnetic bearing supported rotor
(2014)The problem addressed in this thesis is the delevitation modelling of an active magnetic bearing (AMB) supported rotor. A system model needs to be developed that models the highly non-linear interaction of the rotor with ... -
Investigation into backup bearing life using delevitation severity indicators
(North-West University (South Africa) , Potchefstroom Campus, 2016)Active magnetic bearings (AMBs) are inherently flawed in terms of possible failure from either mechanical, electronic or software components. Component failure could induce a rotor delevitation event (RDE) during operation ...
