With regenerative braking technology reaching maturity manufacturers are studying other forms of energy regeneration, amongst these, regenerative suspension. Although there have been several regenerative shock absorber developments over the past decade, including linear-tubular electric motors and hydraulic actuator based systems, cost and complexity have delayed large scale deployment in serie...

This paper shows how power electronics circuits, electric motors and drives, can be simulated with modern simulation programs. The focus will be on PSpice, which is one of the most widely used general-purpose simulation programs. A simulation example is presented, and the results are compared with those obtained with Power System Simulation Tool based on Simulink.

Voltage variation is a silent enemy in electrical systems and with considerable effects on electric motors. In this work, technical experiments were carried out to evaluate the impact of disturbance motors classes IE2, IE3 IE4, then computational simulations using genetic algorithms predict temperature analyzed The results showed how voltage produces deviations consumption temperature, while ex...

Electric vehicles (EVs) are playing a vital role in sustainable transportation. It is estimated that by 2030, Battery EVs will become mainstream for passenger car Even though gaining interest transportation, the future of EV power transmission facing concerns and open research challenges. Considering case torque ripple mitigation improved reliability control techniques motors, many motor drive ...

Vehicle models whose propulsion system is based on electric motors are increasing in number within the automobile industry. They will soon become a reliable alternative to vehicles with conventional propulsion systems. The main advantages of this type of vehicles are the non-emission of polluting gases and noise and the effectiveness of electric motors compared to combustion engines. Some of th...

A robust wheel slip controller for electric vehicles is introduced. The proposed wheel slip controller exploits the dynamics of electric traction drives and conventional hydraulic brakes for achieving maximum energy efficiency and driving safety. Due to the control of single wheel traction motors in combination with a hydraulic braking system, it can be shown, that energy recuperation and vehic...

Abstract—In the present paper, five electric current based methods to analyze electric faults on the stator of induction motors (IM) are used and compared. The analysis tries to extend the application of the multiple reference frames diagnosis technique. An eccentricity indicator is presented to improve the application of the Park’s Vector Approach technique. Most of the fault indicators are va...
