CNRS n0355) ENSIEG-B.P. 46 38402 St Martin d'H"res Cedex-FRANCE This article presents the limits of a 2D modelling of a real 3D electromagnetic problem, on an analytically known case. For each kind of calculation (nunierical and analytical), we have separated different kinds of errors. Consequently, we sueceeded in defining a minimal length allowing the user to obtain bctter results by a 2D modell ing than by a 3D one.

It allows the analytical calculation of all the interactions when the magnet izations are in any direction. The 3D analytical expressions are difficult to obta in, but the torque and force expressions are very simpl e to use.

The output signal is proportional to the angular position. The originality of the structure comes from its design that permits the measurement of the sum of two magnetic inductions which is a constant. This allows the output signal to be insensitive to some external parameters such as the temperature.

We have succeeded in two new results of first importance for the analytical calculation: the torque between two magnets, and the force components and torque when the magnetization directions are perpendicular. The last result allows the analytical calculation of the interactions when the magnetizations are in all the directions.

It is built with synchronously rotating bar-shaped magnets, which create a travelling magnetic field of high intensity. This paper explains why the interaction torque between the magnets is very small, and how it is possible to obtain a high magnetic field in the useful area.

This suspension is relatively simple, and can operate without any additional damping system. A flywheel prototype has been built to test this magnetic suspension. The rotor is a 300-mm-diam aluminum disk (7.3 kg weight) rotating at
A magnetic coupling without parasitic force for measuring devices

They can transmit a torque without creating forces or stiffness between the driver and the driven part. Except for torque, the two parts are in indifferent equilibrium. These couplings have been designed for measuring devices in which they exert no force on the bearings but they can be used in other

Each elementary magnet is submitted to a force and a torque. By 3-D fully analytical calculation, up to now, only the force components problem has been solved. It was published for the first time in 1984. Until now, the torque components have never been analytically calculated because of the angular derivation. We have solved it, so that now all the interactions (energy, three forces components, and three torque components) can be expressed by analytical formulations. The only hypothesis is that the magnetizations J and J ' are supposed to be rigid and uniform in each magnet. The analytical calculation is made by replacing magnetizations by distributions of magnetic charges on the magnet poles. The torque is calculated for rotational movement of the second magnet around its center. The three components of the torque are written with functions based on logarithm and arc-tangent. The results have been verified and validated by comparison with finite-element calculation. Analytical calculation owns many advantages in comparison with other calculation methods. The 3-D analytical expressions are difficult to obtain, but the expressions of energy, force, and torque are very simple to use. For example, the analytical expression can be included in optimization software allowing to directly obtaining the shape optimization by a fast way.

Celle ci est généralement mesurée lors d'une phase de calibration, ou estimée par filtrage adaptatif spatio-temporel si l'on dispose d'une série d'acquisitions (TSENSE). Nous proposons une formulation du problème en termes de séparation aveugle de sources : une analyse en composantes indépendantes (ICA) permet alors d'extraire les informations de sensibilité des antennes à partir d'une seule acquisition. Des résultats de simulations sont présentés, démontrant l'intérêt de cette nouvelle méthode que nous nommerons ICASENSE.

This method is now well-known for its "light weight" and its simplicity of implementation. Its main advantages are the nonrequirement of an air region mesh and a coarse mesh of the ferromagnetic material. It leads to very fast resolution and very accurate field, force, and moment computations. The paper proposes a state of the art of this approach and shows some efficient realizations.
