Project description

The energy efficiency of current electromechanical devices depends on their topology and the magnetic materials it contains. This project studies the incorporation of inductor-capacitor resonators as low frequency metamaterial technology for the remote electrical power transfer to forces and torques. The design will be carried out in terms of energy conversion and its efficiency both numerically and experimentally.
