Ferdinand Freudenstein (1926-2006) is widely acknowledged to be the father of modern kinematics of mechanisms and machines. His Ph. D. thesis in 1954 and subsequent research papers by him and his students have influenced academic and industrial research, teaching and practice related to the analysis and design of mechanisms and machines throughout the world. In this article, we revisit Freudens...

Nowadays, electrical machines and drive systems are playing an essential role in different applications. Eventually, various failures occur long-term continuous operation. Due to the increased influence of such devices on industry, industrial branches, as well ordinary human life, condition monitoring timely fault diagnostics have gained a reasonable importance. In this review article, there st...

Thermal management of PEMD has become one the key enabling factors in delivering future high-specific-output solutions for low-/zero-emission electrified propulsion. This extended review paper evaluates HP technology application to EMs with focus on opportunities and challenges associated successful deployment such heat transfer/removal approaches. Although, use HPs been explored by numerous au...
