Simple SMOT style Motor or "How to remove a sticking point"

[Beamsplitter]

I have not made it run, though I have achieved proof of concept. the algorithms (for shaping the magnetic field) are the missing piece of the puzzle. I believe the field needs to be straighter along the length of the magnets (not the oval shape depicted), and also possibly using magnets with the poles actually on the ends of the magnets (which I do not know where to acquire in this shape) to aid in this. The precision is what's missing from my own designs and I simply posted the idea because time is running out for our rehabilitation regarding fossil fuels.

The principle is sound like so many I've read about for one reason. Intuitively, it must be understood that when you or I push two magnets together with like poles together, a storing of our muscular energy does occur. When we remove our hands, the magnets spring apart. The interesting, and essential point here is that no energy is lost in friction, heat, or any of the other thermodynamic traps. According to thermodynamics, work has not occurred though you can feel that it has. This is astounding, and a pivotal highlight in nature. This happens because the energy is being transferred nonlocally, teleported if you will, into the phenomenon of universal electromagnetism through a quantum portal (exhibited in all magnets). This is the best explanation quantum physics has for these mysterious lines of force. This is also why a large magnet does not suck all of the force out of smaller magnets placed against it (removing the small magnet reveals that it retains its power). Magnets actually create nonlocal portals for electromagnetism, one of four of the most abundant forces in the universe. Magnets surely do not create magnetism, it already exists to be channeled.

So, if one can simply unbalance the system of a magnet, easily done with the right shielding setup, he can achieve a rerouting of the tremendous pool of electromagnetism just waiting to be nonlocally tapped.

I chose to post this to further the evolution of the SMOT for humanity's sake. If I had a video of one running don't doubt that I would have posted it as well. I hope to soon. Until then, any assistance would be appreciated.

In any case, a sticking point CAN be reduced in power, to a discernible degree while only marginally lessening the strength of the propelling force in this system. I have gotten that far and that's enough for me at the present time because it is effectively proof of concept. That's where you guys come in. It was simply time to post it before the information was lost or myself or both.

I understand the idea - I guess. The sticky point is reduced at one end of the magnet. However, reducing a sticky point at the end, means the sticky point is stretched over a longer distance than the sudden end of a "normal magnet. Removing a sticky point without loosing attraction from the other end, means mono pole - virtually speaking. Mono poles are as far as I know not yet possible to make.

So my opinion the sticky point is still present, but it is weaker when measured at every point along the magnet, but also the sum of those sticky forces is still quite high.

How this SMOT will work, is that the modified magnet is virtually a shorter magnet, virtually tilted apart in one end - it is roughly speaking the same thing.

The sum of all forces from a magnet is, as far as I know, always 0 (zero). If you reduce a sticky point in one end, you also reduce the attraction capabilities in the other end of that magnet. I believe this device will not work because the sum of all forces, including air drag, bearings and other kind of friction, will eventually stop the steel rotor.

Well put, I would agree with that analysis.

Low Q, there is a flaw in your analysis. the forces of the magnet are not being neutralized, they are being rerouted within the shield. The shielding (ferromagnetic) does not degrade the force in the lines of flux, it gives them a lower resistance through which to flow, thereby rerouting them away from the ambient physical area in question: the sticking point. The net force of the magnet is still zero, with one side of the force area being rerouted. You were very perceptive to have called it a "virtual" monopole because that is exactly what it is. Both poles are present, one is DEveloped, another is ENveloped within the shielding material, however both are 100 percent present and neither is being neutralized. It is a virtual monopole because one pole (or in the case of my design, one side) is not rerouted, leaving it in a usable space outside the actual magnet.

The key is the shielding, for example: Three virtual monopoles can be created using, say, three cylindrical magnets. The negative sides of these cylindrical magnets will be unshielded. The remaining sides will be shielded to the point where no ambient (outside of the shield) force lines are present. Developed force will be present on the negative sides alone. This will be done with multiple layers of metglas. Whala! Three monopoles. Place one virtual monopole on a rotor arm, place the other two on bases, vertically aligned with only enough space between them for the rotor-based magnet to squeeze between. Have the negative side of the rotor magnet oriented so that when it passes through the open space between the other two its negative side is exposed to the other two's negative sides. Spin it!

I noticed that on the several SMOT-alike devices I built, when I tried to take away the strength of the sticky spot, something bad also happened with the force in the rest of the track. A very strong sticky spot gives a much faster propulsion during the ramp, compared with a weak steaky spot. Somehow the sticky spot is important for the SMOT.
