This paper deals with robustness analysis of Extended Kalman Filters (EKFs) for sensorless motion control of induction motors.

Recently, a novel electric motor with integrated magnetic spring (EMMS) is proposed for cyclic loads for reducing the energy consumption of these types of loads. The EMMS produces the oscillating part of the load torque in a passive way by the magnetic spring. Thereby, this reduces the energy consumption. Nevertheless, the rotor is sandwiched between two stators which complicates the manufacturing...Show More

Conceptually, a broken rotor bar in a squirrel cage induction motor would imply an open circuit in one of the bars. On the contrary, research [1] has shown that in most, copper cage motors, the contact impedance between bar and core is small, allowing current to continue to flow into the broken bar. This current enters the broken bar, and flows through the core to the adjacent healthy bars, as int...Show More

General. Mr. President and gentlemen, with your kind permission, instead of rending the paper as such, I will give a descriptive lecture, using slides based on the subject matter. The operation of turbo generators is associated with guarantees of temperature and electrical characteristics.

This paper proposes a special design of a dual stator radial type permanent magnet vernier machine (PMVM) having a yokeless rotor to improve the torque density. The PMVM model is designed with winding only in the outer stator, while the inner stator is kept auxiliary without winding. The proposed model reduced the overall volume of the machine, which in turn improved the torque density of the mach...Show More
Non-overlap windings have a downfall in that they result in a high quantity of magnetomotive force, sub- and higher-order harmonics, leading to core saturation, increased losses and vibration. Wound rotor machines with non-overlap windings and especially large yokes, result in massive core losses due to the high amount of flux generated in the machine. Stator slitting is proposed as a simple metho...Show More
Available sensorless speed control strategies of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) usually fail around the synchronous speed or limited by the operation mode (motor or generator).
