COMSOL Results:<\/p>\n

The double solenoid with iron rods with a separate iron plate was modeled as shown below, and the magnetic field was calculated such that the force between the magnetized iron rods and the iron plate as a function of the distance between them could be calculated. This distance is the distance from the top of the rods to the bottom of the plate.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/p>\n

The general design was modeled from Samuel Morse’s 1846 patent.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Furthermore, the horseshoe magnet was modeled in 2D, as shown below. Further work could extend this model to 3D.<\/p>\n
