In the last decade, extensive works have been done in developments in bearingless motors.
This paper reviews the published papers written in English in the points of view of motor …

Bearingless permanent-magnet (PM) synchronous motors (BPMSMs) are a new type of
machines combining the characteristics of conventional PM synchronous motors and …

Bearingless switched reluctance motors, which can control rotor radial positions with
magnetic force, have been proposed. Bearingless switched reluctance motors have …

In this paper, a novel design of a one degree of freedom actively positioned bearingless
motor, hereafter referred to as a single-drive bearingless motor, has been proposed. The …

This paper presents a novel exterior rotor topology of a bearingless brushless synchronous
motor with rated power of 300 W. Owing to the large possible magnetic gap and the absence …

With soaring raw material costs, the need for smaller drives running at higher speeds is ever
increasing. In parallel, magnetic bearings and bearingless drives have outgrown the purely …

This paper deals with a nonsalient permanent magnet axial gap self-bearing motor (AGBM),
which is an electrical combination of an axial thrust bearing and an axial flux motor. A …

An improved control method of the buried-type interior permanent magnet (IPM) bearingless
motors has been presented. It is shown that the conventional method is not applicable to this …

In this paper, a novel bearingless motor (50 N⋅m/2.5 kW) for high-purity mixing applications
is presented. The motor consists of a stator with concentrated windings and an exterior rotor …
