A Design Procedure for the Applications-Specific Electric Motors

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

Recent Advancement in the Thermal Design of Electric Motors

Traditionally electric motor manufactures have tended to concentrate effort on improving the electromagnetic design and have only dealt with the thermal design aspects superficially. However the increasing requirement for miniaturisation, energy efficiency and cost reduction, and the need to fully exploit new topologies and materials, make it imperative to analyse the thermal circuit to the sam...

Optimal Design of Axial Flux Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor for Electric Vehicle Applications Using GAand FEM

Axial Flux Permanent Magnet (AFPM) machines are attractive candidates for Electric Vehicles (EVs) applications due to their axial compact structure, high efficiency, high power and torque density. This paper presents general design characteristics of AFPM machines. Moreover, torque density of the machine which is selected as main objective function, is enhanced by using Genetic Algorithm (GA) a...
