A system consisting of an electric machine and a human body is studied and the resulting electric field is predicted. A 3-phase induction machine operating at full load is modeled considering its geometry, windings, and materials. A human model is also constructed approximating its geometry and the electric properties of tissues. Using the finite element technique the electric field distributio...

Electric discharge drill machine (EDDM) is a spark erosion process to produce micro-holes in conductive materials. This process is widely used in aerospace, medical, dental and automobile industries. As for the performance evaluation of the electric discharge drilling machine, it is very necessary to study the process parameters of machine tool. In this research paper, a brass rod 2 mm diameter...

background: one of the methods used for joining metals together is welding, which can be carried out using different techniques such as electric spot welding. this study evaluated the effect of electric spot welding on the load defl ection rate of stainless steel and chromium-cobalt orthodontic wires. materials and methods: in this experimental-laboratory study, load defl ection rate of 0.016 ×...

Electric motors have achieved very high efficiency and reliability; and in some cases, very high specific power. As the energy storage capabilities of batteries and fuel cells advance, these technologies are increasingly being considered for aircraft primary propulsion. In order to design electric aircraft, aircraft designers must be able to understand and model the performance characteristics ...

The freeFOClib (short for “free Field-Oriented Control library”) provides a framework for simulations of electric drives with different application purposes. The library can be used to simply build a field-oriented control system for existing machine models from the Modelica Standard Library, investigate the impact of electric faults (battery faults, inverter faults, machine faults) on a electr...

based on the problems caused by today conventional vehicles, much attention has been put on the fuel cell vehicles researches. however, using a fuel cell system is not adequate alone in transportation applications, because the load power profile includes transient that is not compatible with the fuel cell dynamic. to resolve this problem, hybridization of the fuel cell and energy storage device...

A variable reluctance machine (VRM) has been proven to be an outstanding candidate for electric vehicle (EV) applications. This paper introduces a new double-stator, 12/14/12-pole three-phase hybrid-excited modular variable reluctance machine (MVRM) for EV applications. In order to demonstrate the superiorities of the proposed structure, the static torque characteristics and dynamic performance...
