(MDPI AG, 2018)
Due to the importance of sensors in control strategy and safety, early detection of faults in sensors has become a key point to improve the availability of railway traction drives. The presented sensor fault reconstruction ...
Field Weakening Characteristics Computed with FEM-Coupled Algorithms for Brushless AC Motors
(MDPI AG, 2018)
Finite Element Method (FEM) analysis tools are the most adopted in the design of
brushless alternating current motors due to the advantage of considering multi-physics effects
with dependencies of variables such as ...
A Requirement Engineering Framework for Electric Motors Development
(MDPI AG, 2018)
The applications using electric motors have increased in the last decade. Some of these applications encounter the need for tailor-made motors that must meet demanding requirements. Therefore, the specification stage of ...
Hardware-in-the-loop performance analysis of a railway traction system under sensor faults
(IET, 2019)
Fault mode and effects analysis (FMEA) has been used during decades for analysing the effects of faults in different applications. Initially, FMEA based on risk priority numbers provided information about the effects in ...
Effects of manufacturing tolerances of permanent magnets in fractional slot permanent magnet synchronous machines
(IET, 2019)
The fractional slot permanent magnet synchronous machines are well-known for their low torque ripple. However, in mass-production machines, not all the permanent magnets are identical due to the manufacturing tolerances ...
Model driven Hardware-in-the-Loop Fault analysis of railway traction systems
(IEEE, 2017)
Classical Dependability Analysis techniques, such as Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) and Fault Tree Analysis, have been used during the last decades to demonstrate the reliability, availability, maintainability ...
Automatic detection test of current sensor faults for induction motor drives at standstill
(IEEE, 2016)
This paper proposes an automatic detection test of gain faults in current sensors. An offline test is applied when the machine is not operating. The designed test operates at standstill without being necessary to disconnect ...
DC-link sensor Fault Detection and isolation for railway traction electric drives
(IEEE, 2017)
This article presents the design and the implementation of a fault detection and isolation strategy for sensors in variable speed drives. Electric drives use several current and voltage sensors for control and protection. ...
Analytical model to calculate magnetic flux density in permanent magnet synchronous machines with static eccentricity
(IEEE, 2016)
In this article a general analytical model for the analysis of permanent magnet synchronous machines with static eccentricity is presented. The model is a continuation of [1] and it is based on Fourier time-space series ...
