Three speed controllers for an axial magnetic flux switched reluctance motor with only one stator, are described and experimentally tested. As it is known, when current pulses are imposed in their windings, high ripple torque is obtained. In order to reduce this ripple, a control strategy with modified current shapes is proposed. A workbench consisting of a machine prototype and the control sys...

In this paper, a fault tolerant control for induction motors based on backstepping strategy is designed. The proposed approach permits to compensate both the rotor resistance variations and the load torque disturbance. Moreover, to avoid the use of speed and flux sensors, a second order sliding mode observer is used to estimate the flux and the speed. The used observer converges in a finite tim...

The main objective of this paper is to show a methodology to implement a Maximum Torque per Ampere Strategy (MTPA) in an Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine (IPMSM). IPMSM ́s have been broadly used on industry in the last years for having excellent dynamic performance and high power density. In this article, vector control and MTPA theory and criteria are firstly detailed. Then, the ma...

in order to solve the problem of robustness or antidisturbance of the traditional PI speed controller in the permanent magnet synchronous motor. A fuzzy PI speed controller based on load torque feedback compensation is proposed for the permanent magnet synchronous motor. The combination of fuzzy PI control strategy and load feedback compensation method can enhance the robustness and disturbance...

Abstract. This paper addresses the problem of controlling wind energy conversion (WEC) systems involving permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) fed by IGBT-based buck-to-buck rectifier-inverter. The prime control objective is to maximize wind energy extraction which cannot be achieved without letting the wind turbine rotor operate in variable-speed mode. Interestingly, the present study ...

introduction: some clinicians use a handheld screw driver instead of a torque wrench to definitively tighten abutment screws. the aim of this study was to compare the removal torque of one-piece and two-piece abutments tightened with a handheld driver and a torque control ratchet. methods: 40 iti implants were placed in acrylic blocks and divided into 4 groups. in groups one and two, 10 iti one...

This work represents a new nonlinear control for the asynchronous motor (AM) drive. The designed is based on combination between backstepping (BC) scheme and third-order sliding mod (TOSMC). In this proposed control, torque flux are controlled. Also, torque, current, ripples minimized by BC-TOSMC strategy. strategy more robust compared to field-oriented (FOC). of AM drive has been simulated in ...
