Self-exciting Faraday disk homopolar dynamos

Journal article

In this paper we present an overview of recently published work on the Faraday disk self-exciting homopolar dynamos. We also extend the analysis of two such coupled self-exciting disk dynamos with linear series motors [Moroz et al., 1998a; Moroz et al., 1998b] to the situation where one or both dynamo subunits incorporate nonlinear motors. We examine the differences in some of the bifurcation transition sequences between the various cases and consider whether the nonlinear quenching of oscillatory solutions can occur [Hide, 1998].
