    Abstract: Magnet array structure includes a first linear magnet array having a plurality of consecutively arranged first Halbach arrays and a second linear magnet array having a plurality of consecutively arranged second Halbach arrays. The first linear magnet array, from a first end of the magnet array structure to a second end of the magnet array structure, having magnetic flux orientations rotating in a first direction, and the second linear magnet array, from the first end of the magnet array structure to the second end of the magnet array structure, having magnetic flux orientations rotating in a second direction that is opposite the first direction. The first linear magnet array is arranged parallel to the second linear magnet array so that, between the first and second ends of the magnet array structure, the first Halbach magnetic arrays are linearly offset from the second Halbach magnetic arrays.

    Abstract: Magnet array structure includes a first linear magnet array and a second linear magnet array having a first and a second arrangement of magnets, respectively, in which the first and the second arrangement of magnets are repeated along respective lengths of the first and second linear magnet array. The first and second arrangement of magnets include respective individual first and second magnet elements arranged along the respective length of the first and second linear magnet array so that no net magnetic forces parallel to the length of the first and second linear magnet array result on the first and second arrangement of magnets, respectively. The first arrangement of magnets is offset from the second arrangement of magnets so that the first arrangement of magnets and the second arrangement of magnets partially overlap.

    Abstract: Non-contact bearing system, such as a magnetic levitation system, having a geometry. The geometry includes a plurality of track elements arranged to nest together in a length direction. The plurality of track elements are shaped to define at least an upper and a lower null flux crossing and the plurality of nested track elements form a conductive metamaterial. Method for constructing a metamaterial null flux magnetic levitation track with tessellating elements of stamped conductors.

    Abstract: Magnet array structure and method for forming magnet array structure that includes a first linear magnet array including a first magnet arrangement, in which the first magnet arrangement is consecutively repeated and a second linear magnet array including a second magnet arrangement, in which the second magnet arrangement is consecutively repeated. The first magnet arrangement includes a plurality of first magnetic elements having non-uniformly dimensioned widths in a length direction of the first magnet arrangement and the second magnet arrangement includes a plurality of second magnetic elements having non-uniformly dimensioned widths in a length direction of the second magnet arrangement. The first linear magnet array is arranged parallel to the second linear magnet array so that the first magnet arrangement is linearly offset from the second magnet arrangement.

    Abstract: Magnet array structure and method for forming magnet array structure that includes a first magnet array including a first repeatable magnet arrangement and second magnet array including a second repeatable magnet arrangement. The first repeatable magnet arrangement includes a plurality of non-uniformly dimensioned magnetic elements and the second repeatable magnet arrangement includes a plurality of non-uniformly dimensioned magnetic elements. Further, the first repeatable magnet arrangement is offset from the second repeatable magnet arrangement to limit attraction forces between the first and second magnet arrays.
