On the Damper-Bar Current Calculation For High Power Salient Poles Synchronous Machines

Jean-Jacques Simond, Basile Kawkabani, György Atilla Bànyai

The goal of the paper was to analyze the current distribution of a high-power salient-pole synchronous machine damper winding. A few methods were considered but only two analytical methods are highlighted. Both methods arc based on parameter calculation by ...

Control of the Toycopter using a Flat Approximation

Dominique Bonvin, Philippe Müllhaupt, Jean Lévine

This paper considers a helicopter-like setup called the Toycopter. Its particularities reside first in the fact that the toycopter motion is constrained to remain on a sphere and second in the use of a variable rotational speed of the propellers to vary th ...
