Accurate and Simple Modeling of Eddy Current Braking Torque: Analysis and Experimental Validation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A compact, reliable, and straightforward mathematical modeling of the eddy current (EC) braking torque is proposed in this article. First, the braking magnetic force, which curbs the movement of a rotating disk (RD), is evaluated using the basic laws of electromagnetism. Second, the braking torque is related to the braking force through a polynomial function model. The model parameters are evaluated by plugging in measurement samples in the equation of motion taking into account the nonlinear behavior of the aerodynamic drag forces. The proposed model neither has limitations on the braking system geometry nor the disk rotational speed as long as the measurement samples cover the whole speed range. Moreover, it is validated experimentally for constant and alternating magnetic flux profiles with best fit rates (BFRs) more than 85% and 93% for both rotational speed and braking torque, respectively. Furthermore, programmable braking application is demonstrated using the proposed approach and its applicability is verified experimentally.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
