Abstract The main task of our work is determination of possible levitation of micro-ring with eddy current in magnetic field of down ring with set alternating current and determination of critical value of «ohmic» damping separated field of parameters, at which motions of suspension ring transit from divergent to meeting to steady-state equilibrium position. I. e. in this critical case the motion practically coincides with motions of conservative system. The possibility of gyroscopic stabilization of suspension ring taking into account initial set rotation is considered. Thereby it can serve as contactless micro-gyroscope.

This paper reports the design and development of a self-balancing bicycle using off-the-shelf electronics. A self-balancing bicycle is an unstable nonlinear system similar to an inverted pendulum. Experimental results show the robustness and efficiency of the proportional plus derivative controller balancing the bicycle. The system uses a control moment gyroscope as an actuator for balancing.

This paper report on research and fabrication of an electric vehicle prototype that will be capable of balancing itself without human effort. This vehicle will be implementing a control moment gyroscope for balancing purpose. The project also concerned about the environmental effects of conventional internal combustion Engines and to effectively use the alternative propulsion system which is electric traction system, where using Electric motors the vehicle is propelled. The system uses a control moment gyroscope to static balancing of the vehicle and using its angular momentum and precessional moment. Along with the fact that it uses a electric traction motor he implementation of new optimizations for power and mileage the efficiency is improved.

The energy innovation scenario sees hybrid wind-wave platforms as a promising technology for reducing the variability of the power output and for the minimization of the cost of offshore marine renewable installations. This article presents a model that describes the installation of a 5 MW wind turbine on a floating platform designed by Fincantieri and equipped with gyroscopic stabilization. The use of gyros allows for the delivery of platform stabilization by damping the wave and wind induced motion on the floater and at the same time producing extra power. Shetland Island was chosen as the reference site because of its particularly harsh weather. Final results show that the total production of power in moderate and medium climate conditions is considerable thanks to the installation of the gyro, together with a significant stabilization of the platform in terms of pitching angle and nacelle acceleration.
