A new method for improving the dynamics of superconducting magnetic bearings.

This paper describes a new method for improving the dynamics of passive type superconducting magnetic bearings (SMBs). The SMBs are composed of two kinds of superconductors and a permanent magnet. The superconductors of the SMBs were field-cooled in the experiments. After the field-cooling, impulse...
