Initially, linear motors have been particularly dedicated to transportation systems. Nowadays, linear motors are meant to replace a system using a rotating motor and a transmission to realize a linear movement. With linear motors the performances increase ...
The aim of this project is the design and the optimization of the electrical motors used in the Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) system currently under development at JTEKT, an automotive part supplier company. Two motors are needed for the control ...
The paper presents a method to determine hysteresis losses in synchronous permanent magnet (PM) motors. The method comprises four steps: (1) experimental determination of the B-H loop, (2) analytical modeling of the B-H loop by applying different models, ( ...
This paper presents a combined analytical and finite-element (FE) method for computation of the no-load voltage waveform of laminated salient-pole synchronous generators. The described method takes into account saturation effects as well as the damper bar ...
This paper deals with the determination of large synchronous machine characteristic quantities using an extended 2D-finite element method and based on the knowledge of the geometry and of the physical properties of the electrical and magnetic circuits of t ...
It has been suggested that the shape of the normalized time-varying elastance curve [E(n)(t(n))] is conserved in different cardiac pathologies. We hypothesize, however, that the E(n)(t(n)) differs quantitatively after myocardial infarction (MI). Sprague-Da ...
The paper presents a simplified analytical method to design a small two-pole slotless brushless dc motor. Using only a few approximations, the motor analytical model is formulated to generate a system of equations. The system can be solved analytically, pr ...
A new hearing therapy called Direct Acoustical Cochlear Stimulation (DACS) was developed and validated in a first clinical trial with four patients. The key component of this therapy based on an implantable hearing device is a micro-actuator that is implan ...
