The decoupled control of torque and flux has made field-oriented control an attractive choice for high performance induction motor drives. However, changes in the speed tracking trajectory and external disturbances make it difficult to achieve an acceptable closed-loop tracking performance, especially when traditional linear controllers are used. This paper addresses this issue by applying dire...

– Direct Torque Control using Multilevel Inverter (DTC-MLI) strategy has attracted a great deal of interest in recent years, in the field of high power induction machines or permanent magnet machines drives applications for high dynamic response. This proposal combines the advantages of the multilevel inverter with direct torque controlled based schemes. Numerous efforts have been accomplished ...

Induction machines play a vital role in industry and there is a strong demand for their reliable and safe operation. They are generally reliable but eventually do wear out. Faults and failures of induction machines can lead to excessive downtimes and generate large losses in terms of maintenance and lost revenues, and this motivates the examination of on-line condition monitoring. The major dif...

This paper presents a detailed recent research trend on multi-phase induction machines, which include multiphase induction motor as well as the multiphase induction generator. Electrical power system developed so far was of three phases since the beginning of the last century but research in the field of multi-phase machines have attracted increased interest in recent years due to the several a...
