In Sci-fi inertial dampeners take accelerative kinetic force that would otherwise harm the passengers by diverting some of that stress to the ship itself. It has occurred to me that it would be possible to displace the inductive resistance of passing a magnet near a coil. Magnets have range based in good part to their size. In short using the sum zero rule to use a smaller stationary magnet to filter the output of a passing larger magnet and placing enough of the smaller magnets around the path of your rotating magnet you can balance your rotor to only have to counter ye olde cogging forces of the smaller magnets. When the rotor magnet passes a filter magnet not only does stress get diverted to the stator the filter acts as a lens to aim flux at the next stage in the magnetic circuit.
The picture included represents an example of how one might capitalize on the concept. The center shaft is capped with magnets to make it one long magnet while the magnet cap aims the flux at the filters so by spinning only the cap and not the whole shaft you can potentially operate a large generator with minimal force.
