Publication number: 20130015667Abstract: A power generation system comprises a tube, a coil assembly, a magnetic assembly, and a direct detonation source. The coil assembly comprises at least one coil configured outside the tube. The magnetic assembly comprises at least one magnet inside the tube. The magnetic assembly is configured to move relative to the tube. The direct detonation source produces a detonation impulse that causes one of the tube or the magnetic assembly to move thereby generating power based on the movement of the magnet assembly relative to the coil assembly where the direct detonation source produces the detonation impulse at an ignition point without requiring a period of deflagration.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 9, 2012Publication date: January 17, 2013Applicant: Correlated Magnetics Research, LLCInventors: Larry W.

Publication number: 20120306604Abstract: An improved field emission system and method. The invention pertains to field emission structures comprising electric or magnetic field sources having magnitudes, polarities, and positions corresponding to a desired spatial force function where a spatial force is created based upon the relative alignment of the field emission structures and the spatial force function. The spatial force function may be based on one or more codes. In various embodiments, the code may be modified or varied. The code may be combined with another code. One or more aspects of the code, including spacing and amplitude, may be modulated or dithered according to a predefined pattern. Multiple magnet arrays may be combined, each based on a different code or portion of a code, resulting in a combination spatial force function. Magnet structures having differing field patterns may be used to generate a desired spatial force function related to a cross correlation of the two field patterns.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 25, 2012Publication date: December 6, 2012Applicant: CORRELATED MAGNETICS RESEARCH LLCInventors: Larry W.

Patent number: 8314671Abstract: A key system for enabling operation of a device. The key system is based on magnets arranged according to one or more codes. The codes may act as a unique identifier or key, requiring a matching part to operate the device. Thus, the code can act like a key that will only achieve lock when matched with a like (complementary) pattern. The codes may be from a set of codes having low cross correlation among codes in the set, for example Kasami codes or Gold codes.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 2012Date of Patent: November 20, 2012Assignee: Correlated Magnetics Research LLCInventors: Larry W.

Patent number: 8279031Abstract: A multi-level magnetic system includes first and second magnetic structures and transitions between an attract mode and a repel mode when the first and second magnetic structures are separated by an equilibrium separation distance. The multi-level magnetic system is placed between two objects and configured to oscillate about the equilibrium separation distance in response to a vibration from a motion source. The oscillation about the equilibrium separation distance causes the multi-level magnetic system to function as a low pass filter that substantially attenuates vibrations above a cutoff frequency thereby limiting the conducting of the vibration between the two objects.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2012Date of Patent: October 2, 2012Assignee: Correlated Magnetics Research, LLCInventors: Larry W.
