Daehoon Sung and Eric Severson traveled to Otsu, Japan to attend the 19th International Symposium on Magnetic Bearings (ISMB19) August 19–22, 2025 and present the following papers:

• D. Sung, T. Noguchi, A. Upadhyaya, S.-G. Kang, and E. L. Severson,
  “System Identification and Sensor Calibration Methods for Commissioning of Bearingless Machines,”
  ISMB19, 2025.
• T. Noguchi, P. Sinha, W. A. Smith, and E. L. Severson,
  “Development of Miniature Bearingless Motors for RVAD and Fontan Circulation Assist Devices,”
  ISMB19, 2025.
• T. Noguchi, M. Mokhtarabadi, K. N. V. Prasad, W. Gruber, and E. L. Severson,
  “Universal Model and Control Framework for Bearingless Motors with Combined Windings,”
  ISMB19, 2025.

You can find our publications in the ISMB19 proceedings.

Daehoon’s work was recognized by the conference committee and selected for the Best Student Presentation Award — congratulations Daehoon! His presentation focused on bearingless machine commissioning (improved techniques for system identification and sensor calibration) and provides practical methods for maglev motor developers. 

We congratulate Daehoon on this outstanding achievement and representation at ISMB19 in Japan.
