Normal force is the dominant source of vibration in the linear permanent-magnet (LPM) machine. In order to investigate vibration of a new LPM vernier machine, normal pressure and their spatial harmonics are calculated by finite element method. Then, the natural vibration modes and transient displacement of the short mover is predicted. Finally, experimental result is given for verification. Results are instructive for design of a high precision and low vibration LPM machine.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
