2. Magnetic levitation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_levitation

   Magnetic levitation can be stabilised using different techniques; here rotation (spin) is used. Magnetic levitation (maglev) or magnetic suspension is a method by which an object is suspended with no support other than magnetic fields. Magnetic force is used to counteract the effects of the gravitational force and any other forces. [2]

3. Mendocino motor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mendocino_motor

   A coil is switched between these bridges. The solar panel in the sun/light produces more electricity than the solar panel in the shadow. So the solar panel in the sun dominates the flow of electricity. The coil and the base magnet create Lorentz force and so a movement that leads the next solar panel into the sun/light, thus maintaining the ...

4. Electromagnetic suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_suspension

   Electromagnetic suspension (EMS) is the magnetic levitation of an object achieved by constantly altering the strength of a magnetic field produced by electromagnets using a feedback loop. In most cases the levitation effect is mostly due to permanent magnets as they have no power dissipation, with electromagnets only used to stabilise the effect.

6. Electrodynamic suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrodynamic_suspension

   Electrodynamic suspension (EDS) is a form of magnetic levitation in which there are conductors which are exposed to time-varying magnetic fields. This induces eddy currents in the conductors that creates a repulsive magnetic field which holds the two objects apart. These time varying magnetic fields can be caused by relative motion between two ...

7. Spin-stabilized magnetic levitation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin-stabilized_magnetic...

   Spin-stabilized magnetic levitation is a phenomenon of magnetic levitation whereby a spinning magnet or array of magnets (typically as a top) is levitated via magnetic forces above another magnet or array of magnets, and stabilised by gyroscopic effect due to a spin rate that is neither too fast, nor too slow to allow for a necessary precession.
