But today's starry-eyed dreamers are reckoning with the gritty reality of building a permanent base on an airless, dusty, radiation-blasted rock thousands of miles from home. How hard can it be?

This paper introduces a bidirectional flux-modulated radial permanent magnet (PM) generator, incorporating a mechanical flux-weakening design. The focus is on achieving mechanical flux-weakening ...

Abstract: To tackle the torque pulsation challenge in permanent magnet machines, this paper proposes two design methods that involve shifting the permanent magnet pole-pairs. Method 1 ...

Generators consist of two major components: an engine and an alternator. The engine turns the alternator, producing AC (alternating current) power that goes through a voltage regulator to deliver ...
