The control of Brushless Permanent Magnet Motors require rotor position information that
can be measured by means of a position sensor. The motion sensorless control aims at …

With the merits of high torque density, unintentional demagnetization (UD) withstand
capability and satisfactory flux regulation range, series magnetic circuit variable flux memory …

Improving the performance of Switched Reluctance Motors (SRMs) such that they become a
viable alternative to PM motors has been an active area of investigation. In this paper, a low …

This paper describes problems of the sensorless starting of horizontal axis washing
machines with direct drive and proposes solution, which was experimentally verified. H-axis …

Transportation electrification is leading to an impressive development of electric drives
(eDrives) using either synchronous-(SM) or induction-(IM) motors. However, these eDrive …

Reducing motor losses is very important in connection with raising the requirements set by
international regulations on reducing electricity consumption. As induction motors are …
