This paper presents an experimental technique to accurately separate a permanent magnetic field and an induced one from the total magnetic fields generated by a steel ship, through compensating for the Earth's magnetic field. To achieve this, an Earth's magnetic field simulator was constructed at a non-magnetic laboratory, and the field separation technique was developed, which consisted of five stages. The proposed method was tested with a scaled model ship, and its permanent and induced magnetic fields were successfully extracted from the magnetic field created by the ship. Finally, based on the separated permanent magnetic field data, the permanent magnetization distribution on the hull was predicted by solving an inverse problem. Accordingly, the permanent magnetic fields generated by the ship can easily be calculated at any depth of water.

Magnetic anomaly generated around a ship is mainly due to the permanent magnetization(PM) and induced magnetization (IM) remaining on the hull. It is very difficult to predict the direction and its magnitude of the permanent magnetization distributed over the hull, that is caused by mechanical or thermal stress. In this paper, an effective method is proposed to separate two components, the one produced by PM and the other by IM, from the underwater earth field signal distorted by the ferromagnetic material of the ship. The method can easily provide the two kinds of magnetic anomaly through exploiting experimental results and 3D electromagnetic field analyses even though the PM distribution on the hull is not known. To validate the proposed method, a model ship is manufactured and tested. The results would be of much help to basis research for securing safe navigation of a ship against dangerous factors in underwater.

This paper examines permanent magnet eddy current couplings and brakes. Specifically, the effect of permanent magnet magnetization patterns on the magnetic field and force production is investigated. The eddy current couplings and brakes employ high energy-product neodymium-iron-boron (NdFeB) permanent magnets that act on iron-backed copper drums to provide torque transfer from motor to load without mechanical contact. A 2-dimensional finite element modeling is performed to predict the electromagnetic behavior and the torque-speed characteristics of permanent magnet type eddy current couplings and brakes under constant speed operation.

Distribution of Permanent magnet used in the spindle motor on the ODD is arranged by magnetizer. In general, permanent magnet is putted between yoke and back yoke of magnetizer so that symmetric magnetization distribution. But the magnet has unsymmetric magnetization distribution because of eccentricity of the yoke in mass production. So, in this paper we discuss the effect of asymmetric magnetization distribution on back EMF and cogging torque of the spindle motor.

This paper investigates the characteristics of cogging torque and magnetic force of a brushless DC (BLDC) motor due to imperfect magnetization of permanent magnet (PM) numerically and experimentally which results in the magnetically induced vibration. A predicted magnetization pattern of the PM of the BLDC motor, which is derived from the measured surface magnetic flux density along the PM, is applied to the finite element analysis in order to calculate the cogging torque and the unbalanced magnetic force. This research also develops the experimental setup to measure the unbalanced magnetic force as well as the cogging torque. It shows numerically and experimentally that the imperfect magnetization of permanent magnet generates the driving frequencies of cogging torque with integer multiple of slot number in addition to the least common multiple of pole and slot. It also shows that the driving frequencies of unbalanced magnetic force are integer multiple of slot number ${\pm}1$ due to imperfect magnetization of PM even in the rotationally symmetric design.

This paper deals with the characteristics analysis of Interior Permanent Magnet Type Motor varying with magnetization curve of electrical steel interpolated with several method in the high field region. The data of magnetization curve of electrical steel given by the steel maker is not enough in order to analysis the characteristics by menas of FEM. Especially, the core in the bridge part have a severe saturation because the bridge width is narrow to reduce the flux leakage produced by the permanent magnet. This paper make the three kinds of magnetization curve by extrapolation and then the motor is analyzed by using these magnetization curve. The motor parameters are compared to explain the effects of magnetization curve.

The magnetic suspension of a high T$\sub$c/ BipbSrCaCuO superconductor beneath toroial Permanent magnet was examined by means of an improved magneto-balancing method at 77K. Both the experimental values of the suspending position and the force exerted upon the superconducting specimen were in good agreement with those calculated from the magnetization curve of the specimen and the magnetic field map of the used permanent magnet.

This paper deals with the magnetic equivalent circuit modeling and permanent magnet (PM) performance evaluations of a pole changing memory motor (PCMM). We use a coupled transient finite element method (FEM) and Preisach modeling, which is presented to analyze the magnetic characteristics of the permanent magnets. The focus of this paper is on the evaluation of characteristics such as the magnetizing direction and the pole number of the machine under re- and de-magnetization conditions.

This paper presents the development of the magnetic position sensor for servo motor. The magnetization system is designed for the sinusoidal magnetic flux density distribution from permanent magnet using 2D finite element method and Preisach model. The magnetic position sensor is composed of the permanent magnet and two Hall elements. And the algorithm calculating the rotating position is suggested by the phase difference of outputs of Hall elements.
