Paper to be presented in January 2014

“Magnetic diffusion delays in steel and permanent magnets when coil currents are turned on and off,” has been accepted for the Magnetics 2014 Conference, Orlando, FL, January 29-30, 2014. This new paper is partly based on the 2nd edition of Magnetic Actuators and Sensors by John R. Brauer, to be published by Wiley IEEE Press in late 2013.

I am available to teach you about magnetic actuators and sensors

I teach an interactive seminar “Magnetic Actuators and Sensors” over the telephone and internet for your company or institution.  The seminar can be tailored to your needs but usually consists of four sessions of three hours each.  Only a college freshman’s understanding of basic math and physics is needed as a prerequisite.  Watch introductory video at:
