Magnetic levitation using Neodymium magnets for vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs)

This project is aimed at assessing the viability of the use of magnetic levitation in the field of vertical axis wind turbines. This has been achieved through the construction of a prototype model. This report details relevant background theory, the hardware design and construction of the prototype...
