Modal Analysis of a GA Superconducting Magnet Subsystem for ALISS

Abstract

The modal analysis of a superconducting magnet subsystem designed by General Atomics (GA) has been performed to determine the natural frequencies and corresponding mode shapes. GA subsystem is a part of ALISS (Advanced Lightweight Influence Sweep System), which uses a superconducting magnet for magnetic mine sweeping. Any resonance condition must be avoided in an operational environment to ensure the no- quenching in the subsystem.
