Abstract: Diamagnetic levitation is a physical phenomenon that uses the diamagnetism of diamagnetic materials to stably levitate itself in an external strong magnetic field, which has great potential in the areas of sensors, actuators, and biomedicine. In this paper, a typical diamagnetic levitation system composed of a NdFeB permanent magnet array and pyrolytic graphite sheet is built. The levitation mechanism of the diamagnetic levitation system is analyzed theoretically, the main factors affecting the static levitation of the pyrolytic graphite sheet are determined, and the influence of structural parameters on the levitation height of the pyrolytic graphite sheet is studied. Furthermore, the dynamic and numerical simulation models of the diamagnetic levitation system are established, and the dynamic response characteristics of the pyrolytic graphite sheet are analyzed under different vibration excitation. This study provides a reference for developing applications based on the diamagnetic levitation system.
