Model-based predictive control (MPC) is one of the most efficient techniques that is widely used in industrial applications. In such controllers, increasing the prediction horizon results in better selection of the optimal control signal sequence. On the other hand, increasing the prediction horizon increase the computational time of the optimization process which make it impossible to be imple...

In the permanent magnet linear synchronous motor (PMLSM), force ripple is harmful, useless and disturbing. The force ripple is basically composed of two components: detent force and mutual force ripple. This force is influenced by the geometric parameters of the permanent magnet (PM) motors; such as width, thickness and length of the magnet poles, length and thickness of the rotor and stato...

The steady state analytical performance of a line commutated inverter fed three phase synchronous motor under variable speed condition is presented. The firing pulses for six silicon-controlled-rectifiers of the three phase inverter are generated by the control circuit in proper sequence with the help of synchronizing signal derived from the induced electromotive force of the synchronous machin...
