Permanent Magnet Fundamentals
About the Course
A course designed to provide people who use permanent magnets in their work an understanding of the many complicated and subtle features of these materials. The course is well-suited for people with a technical background, with little or no previous experience with permanent magnets. Covered topics include magnetic theory, ferromagnetism, permanent magnet processing, thermal effects, magnetizing and magnetic measurements.
About the Instructor
