Rotor flux oriented control of multiphase induction machines with sinusoidal MMF distribution can theoretically be realized by using only two current controllers in the synchronous reference frame. In practice however this is inadequate, as shown in the pa ...
n large cities, due to expensive land price, high-rise buildings are built, in which the space dedicated to the elevators is considerable and reduces the rented surfaces. To decrease these lost surfaces, a Multi Mobile System is proposed. It consists of se ...
The present invention concerns a permeable-magnetocaloric material for a magnetic refrigerator, a heat pump or a power generator comprising at least a magnet assembly for the generation of a magnetic field, a body disposed at least partially in said magnet ...
Multiphase variable-speed drives, supplied from two-level voltage-source inverters (VSIs), are nowadays considered for various industrial applications. Depending on the drive structure and/or the motor design, the VSI is required to generate either sinusoi ...

We present an original analytical determination of the force acting on the moving coil in an electromagnetic actuator. The actuator magnetic field is solved analytically by Schwarz-Christoffel (SC) mapping. The SC integral is solved analytically using the ...
We report on the mechanical characterization and modeling of a non-prestretched dielectric elastomer diaphragm microactuator with ion-implanted electrodes under the influence of a distributed load (pressure). Thin polydimethysiloxane (PDMS) membranes (30 u ...
Two-level multiphase voltage source inverters (VSIs) are typically used as the supply for multiphase machines. Such machines are often with concentrated winding in which case, certain low-order stator current harmonics are injected to provide torque enhanc ...
The paper reports the results of an experimental investigation of a five-phase two-motor drive system, consisting of a parallel connection of two induction machines (IM). Thanks to an appropriate connection of the motors, two machines are controlled indepe ...
This article presents the modeling, simulation, and practical application of a double-fed asynchronous motor-generator for pumped-storage plants equipped with a three-level VSI cascade. The problem of DC unbalance control is studied in this particular appl ...
Training for colonoscopy, which is the examination and treatment of the colon, is often performed on real patients once the physician has passed the novice level. This increases the risk to the patient and lengthens the procedure time. Since a decade ago, ...
