Electric motorAn electric motor is an electrical machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force in the form of torque applied on the motor's shaft. An electric generator is mechanically identical to an electric motor, but operates with a reversed flow of power, converting mechanical energy into electrical energy.
AC motorAn AC motor is an electric motor driven by an alternating current (AC). The AC motor commonly consists of two basic parts, an outside stator having coils supplied with alternating current to produce a rotating magnetic field, and an inside rotor attached to the output shaft producing a second rotating magnetic field. The rotor magnetic field may be produced by permanent magnets, reluctance saliency, or DC or AC electrical windings.
Théorie du contrôleEn mathématiques et en sciences de l'ingénieur, la théorie du contrôle a comme objet l'étude du comportement de systèmes dynamiques paramétrés en fonction des trajectoires de leurs paramètres. On se place dans un ensemble, l'espace d'état sur lequel on définit une dynamique, c'est-à-dire une loi mathématiques caractérisant l'évolution de variables (dites variables d'état) au sein de cet ensemble. Le déroulement du temps est modélisé par un entier .
Brushed DC electric motorA brushed DC electric motor is an internally commutated electric motor designed to be run from a direct current power source and utilizing an electric brush for contact. Brushed motors were the first commercially important application of electric power to driving mechanical energy, and DC distribution systems were used for more than 100 years to operate motors in commercial and industrial buildings. Brushed DC motors can be varied in speed by changing the operating voltage or the strength of the magnetic field.
Moteur sans balaisUn moteur sans balais, ou « moteur brushless », ou machine synchrone auto-pilotée à aimants permanents, est une machine électrique de la catégorie des machines synchrones, dont le rotor est constitué d'un ou de plusieurs aimants permanents et pourvu d'origine d'un capteur de position rotorique : capteur à effet Hall, synchro-résolver, codeur rotatif (par exemple codeur incrémental), ou tout autre système permettant l'auto-pilotage de la machine. Vu de l'extérieur, il fonctionne en courant continu.
Induction motorAn induction motor or asynchronous motor is an AC electric motor in which the electric current in the rotor needed to produce torque is obtained by electromagnetic induction from the magnetic field of the stator winding. An induction motor can therefore be made without electrical connections to the rotor. An induction motor's rotor can be either wound type or squirrel-cage type. Three-phase squirrel-cage induction motors are widely used as industrial drives because they are self-starting, reliable, and economical.
Traction motorA traction motor is an electric motor used for propulsion of a vehicle, such as locomotives, electric or hydrogen vehicles, or electric multiple unit trains. Traction motors are used in electrically powered railway vehicles (electric multiple units) and other electric vehicles including electric milk floats, trolleybuses, elevators, roller coasters, and conveyors, as well as vehicles with electrical transmission systems (diesel-electric locomotives, electric hybrid vehicles), and battery electric vehicles.
Robotique molleLa robotique molle () est un domaine de la robotique. Ce domaine traite des « robots mous » incluant certains types de drones, et construits en matériaux ou structures souples, élastiques ou déformables tels que le silicone, le plastique, le caoutchouc et autres polymères, les tissus, etc., ou des pièces mécaniques déformables utilisées en robotique, par exemple les ressorts, les élastiques ou les absorbeurs de chocs ou de vibrations.
DC motorA DC motor is an electrical motor that uses direct current (DC) to produce mechanical force. The most common types rely on magnetic forces produced by currents in the coils. Nearly all types of DC motors have some internal mechanism, either electromechanical or electronic, to periodically change the direction of current in part of the motor. DC motors were the first form of motors widely used, as they could be powered from existing direct-current lighting power distribution systems.
AutomatiqueL’automatique est une science qui traite de la modélisation, de l’analyse, de l’identification et de la commande des systèmes dynamiques. Elle inclut la cybernétique au sens étymologique du terme, et a pour fondements théoriques les mathématiques, la théorie du signal et l’informatique théorique. L’automatique permet de commander un système en respectant un cahier des charges (rapidité, précision, stabilité...). Les professionnels en automatique se nomment automaticiens.
