Design Blueprint: A Superconducting Levitation Bearing for a Cryogenic Rotor: Lift Capacity, Stiffness and Rotational Loss Budget

Design blueprint derived from the source paper (DOI 10.5281/zenodo.24147803): This paper presents a computed design for a levitation bearing intended for superconducting bearings, with its performance, resource budgets and margins derived from stated assumptions rather than asserted. The headline results are: total lift capacity of the two bearing rings of 344 N; ratio of lift capacity to the rotor weight of 5.85 dimensionless; linearised axial stiffness about the field-coo Status: DESIGN BLUEPRINT — SIMULATED, NOT MEASURED — NOT BUILT. All numbers are simulated values from the source paper's computation, deposited with this blueprint as compute.py and results.json.
