in most industrial applications, including overhead cranes, two motors with equal speeds are required. to meet this, different traditional and modern methods are used. in the modern methods, work is done with more precision but the cost is remarkably high, also the maintenance of equipment needs specialized personnel. among traditional methods, the two-motors selsyn method is noteworthy due to ...

Since many rotor systems normally operate above their critical speeds, the problem of accelerating the machine through its critical speeds without excessive vibration draws increasing attention. This paper provides an analytical imbalance response of the Jeffcott rotor under constant acceleration. The response consists of three parts: transient vibration due to the initial condition of the roto...

This paper presents the no-load practical synchronous speed characteristics of a laboratory model induction machine of 120 W capacity. Critical, minimum and maximum capacitance required for excitation are calculated from the no load curve for voltage buildup, rated voltage and current respectively; at various super synchronous speeds. A realistic model of the machine is presented on Matlab/Simu...

The BDFM shows economic promise as a variable speed drive. One practical obstacle to commercial exploitation is the presence of operating speeds at which BDFM synchronous action cannot be maintained under open loop conditions. Two control strategies are proposed: feedback linearisation and control winding phase angle control which will enable BDFM synchronous action to be attained over the nece...

The paper proposes a method for the rotor speed and position estimation of permanent magnet synchronous motors, applicable in a wide speed range including standstill. A modified voltage model is used at high speeds, and it is combined with a high-frequency signal injection technique at low speeds. The fast dynamic response of the voltage model is thus augmented with the steady-state accuracy of...

Many animals are capable of changing gait with speed of locomotion. The neural basis of gait control and its dependence on speed are not fully understood. Mice normally use a single "trotting" gait while running at all speeds, either over ground or on a treadmill. Transgenic mouse mutants in which the trotting is replaced by hopping also lack a speed-dependent change in gait. Here we describe a...

HV The motors of hybrid electric vehicles must be able to offer high efficiency, a high power/weight ratio, and excellent reliability across the entire rotor speed range. Interior permanent magnet synchronous (IPM) motors are used to satisfy these requirements. The goal of this study was to develop an IPM motor control method that would increase the torque and the efficiency at high and medium ...

An asynchronous implementation of the replica exchange method that addresses some of the limitations of conventional synchronous replica exchange implementations is presented. In asynchronous replica exchange pairs of processors initiate and perform temperature replica exchanges independently from the other processors, thereby removing the need for processor synchronization found in conventiona...
