electromechanical applications [8] . The study concluded that their mechanism could be adapted to the NCEL 

 requirements, but the time and cost of that approach were greater than the program could support. The decision 

 was made to modify the existmg NCEL experimental hardware to approximate the prototype design as closely 

 as possible and to thoroughly exhaust the possibilities of the basic NCEL design before moving to other 

 concepts (if necessary).
