Description

The model illustrate the technique to calculate the magnetic stiffness in a 3D geometry of a permanent magnet axial magnetic bearing. The Magnetic Fields physics is used to model the bearing and compute the magnetic forces. The Deformed Geometry and Sensitivity physics are used to compute the magnetic stiffness.

This model is featured and explained in much greater detail in the following blog post: Modeling Magnetic Bearings in COMSOL Multiphysics.
