Abstract
An electrodynamic method includes providing an electrodynamic structure with a periphery, providing power, collecting electrons, and emitting electrons. The emitting electrons and the collecting electrons utilizes at least 20% of the periphery of the electrodynamic structure. The method includes conducting current to provide at least one of electrodynamic propulsion and power generation.

An electrodynamic method comprising:
- providing an electrodynamic structure;
- providing power;
- collecting electrons with collectors;
- emitting electrons with emitters;
- providing a total length of conductors at least 20% larger than the perimeter of the largest planar projection area of the smallest single shape without holes enclosing the collectors, the emitters, and the conductors;
- and
- conducting current through the conductors to provide at least one of electrodynamic propulsion and power generation;
- wherein the largest planar projection area of the smallest single shape without holes enclosing the collectors, the emitters, and the conductors is at least 25% of an area of a circle having a circle perimeter equal to the perimeter of the largest planar projection area.
