  3. Magneto - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magneto

    The development of modern rare-earth magnets makes the simple magneto alternator a more practical proposition as a power generator, as these permit a greatly increased field strength. As the magnets are compact and of light weight, they generally form the rotor, so the output windings can be placed on the stator, avoiding the need for brushgear.

  4. Ignition magneto - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignition_magneto

    The first car to use magneto ignition was the 1901 German Mercedes 35 hp racing car, followed by various cars produced by Benz, Mors, Turcat-Mery, and Nesseldorf. [8] Ignition magnetos were soon used on most cars, for both low voltage systems (which used secondary coils to fire the spark plugs) and high voltage magnetos (which fired the spark ...

    Yamato 1 on display in Kobe, Japan.The first working full-scale MHD ship. A magnetohydrodynamic drive or MHD accelerator is a method for propelling vehicles using only electric and magnetic fields with no moving parts, accelerating an electrically conductive propellant (liquid or gas) with magnetohydrodynamics.

  6. Magneto Inductive Remote Activation Munition System

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magneto_Inductive_Remote...

    With the use of quasi-static AC magnetic fields, MI-RAMS is capable of sending signals through ice, rock, soil, water, and concrete. As a result, MI-RAMS is often used to remotely control ordnance items and communication systems in areas in which radio frequency devices under-perform or fail. [3]

    The Magneto Hydrodynamic Explosive Munition (MAHEM) is a weapon being developed by DARPA of the United States Department of Defense that would utilize molten metal to penetrate enemy armor. [1] The molten metal would be propelled by electromagnetic fields from explosions . [ 2 ]

  9. Eddy current brake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy_current_brake

    Disk electromagnetic brakes are used on vehicles such as trains, and power tools such as circular saws, to stop the blade quickly when the power is turned off.A disk eddy current brake consists of a conductive non-ferromagnetic metal disc attached to the axle of the vehicle's wheel, with an electromagnet located with its poles on each side of the disk, so the magnetic field passes through the ...
