A linear electrical machine may function as an alternator or a motor. Three annular magnets may be provided that move relative to a core. The magnets may all have a different magnetic orientation. Two magnets may have a north pole oriented in a direction parallel to an axis along which the magnets move relative to the core. Another magnet may have a north pole oriented in a direction perpendicular to the axis. The core may include a plurality of ferromagnetic core elements; and a support structure composed of a composite material defining plural spaces, each for receiving one of the plurality of core elements. The core may further include a core shield disposed on the support structure substantially following a perimeter of the support structure defining an opening through which a reciprocating element can pass. Furthermore, the magnets may be supported in a reciprocating element having a low reluctance ferromagnetic frame there being a clearance gap between the machine core and the reciprocating element, the frame having a thicker section adjacent the gap, so as to desirably increase magnet flux linkage with an armature coil.
