Claim 16:
17. An apparatus comprising a plurality of cylindrical shaft members coupled to equal plurality of motors with motor frames; each said cylindrical shaft member mechanically coupled to a pair of disc members each with radius R1, to rotate in a dynamically and statically balanced state with said cylindrical shaft members when said motors rotate; the apparatus further comprising a power source to supply power to each said motor to rotate said cylindrical shaft member with said pair of disc members; each disc member of said pair of disc members comprising an annular radial array of material segments extending radially to the radius R1; said material segments comprising of a material that responds to electromagnetic fields to change shape radially on said pair of disc members; such that when power is supplied to rotate any of said motors, the motor rotates the pair of disc members, and when each such material segment in each of said pair of disc members rotate to an angular location of the cylindrical shaft member relative to a fixed point on the motor frame, and each said material segment is supplied with said electromagnetic fields; and said material responds to said electromagnetic fields to change its shape radially to a new radius R2 different from R1, at said angular location; and such that the mass of each said material segment of each disc member of said pair of disc members is redistributed radially at the radius R2 in said material segment in said angular location; and such that the difference in centripetal forces acting on said change in a radial location from R1 to R2 at said angular location creates a radial force on each of said cylindrical shaft members in a direction of the said angular location; and said radial force can be used to propel a vehicle.
