Seven thousand miles is the distance between Cairo, Egypt and the U.S. east coast, and I have been exposed to the worst kind of abuse on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. “Newspaper Shreds,” spread on my late mother’s bed, on her “honeymoon” signaled to my late father that my mother’s pregnancy with me was a result of adultery. Being convinced of a child’s illegitimacy by a non-Arab husband wouldn’t be such a “great deal,” but to an Egyptian (particularly Christian) husband , the consequences are no less than a disaster, a lifetime disaster to both the wife and the child. On the late morning of August 17, 2008, I determined for myself that I have always been my father’s...
Advanced Manufacturing and Automation V contains the proceedings of the 5th International Workshop of Advanced Manufacturing and Automation (IWAMA 2015). This meeting continues the success of this important international workshop series and disseminates the works of academic and industrial experts, from around the world, in the areas of advanced manufacturing and automation. The disciplines of manufacturing and automation have attained paramount importance and are vital factors for the maintenance and improvement of the economy of a nation and the quality of life. Manufacturing and automation are advancing at a rapid pace and new technologies are constantly emerging in the fields. The challe...
Open loop, experimental force and power measurements of a three-axis, radial, heteropolar magnetic bearing at room temperature for rotor speeds up to 20,000 RPM are presented in this paper. The bearing, NASA Glenn Research Center's and Texas A & M's third generation high temperature magnetic bearing, was designed to operate in a 1000 deg. F (540 deg. C) environment and was primarily optimized for maximum load capacity. The experimentally measured force produced by one C-core of this bearing was 630 lb. (2.8 kN) at 16 A, while a load of 650 lbs (2.89 kN) was predicted at 16 A using 1D circuit analysis. The maximum predicted radial load for one of the three axes is 1,440 lbs (6.41 kN) at room temperature. The maximum measured load of an axis was 1050 lbs. (4.73 kN). Results of test under rotating conditions showed that rotor speed has a negligible effect on the bearing's load capacity. A single C-core required approximately 70 W of power to generate 300 lb (1.34 kN) of magnetic force. The room temperature data presented was measured after three thermal cycles up to 1000 deg. F (540 deg. C), totaling six hours at elevated temperatures.
