Linear motors are becoming increasingly practical for general motion. Many are used for long strokes of a few feet or more. One new design, however, where the magnets move relative to a stationary ...

A research team led by Su-Min Kim and Jung-Goo Lee (Korea Institute of Materials Science; KIMS) has developed next-generation ...

The science experimenters at TKOR build several small motors powered by magnets to demonstrate basic electromagnetic motion.

While electric vehicles certainly offer a host of eco-friendly advantages, they're not without some asterisks, one being the rare earth materials (and harmful mining thereof) used to make the magnets ...

The asynchronous electric motor, also referred to as an AC induction motor, is the most common type of commercial and industrial AC motor. Its invention dates back to the 1800s and the likes of ...
