The main objective of this research paper is to deliver the selection criteria of PMBLDC Motor for certain industrial applications. In general, Industries uses large Horsepower (HP) Brushless DC Motors as the special drives. These motors offer low starting currents with high starting torque, and the ability to supply reactive KVA to the plant system if desired. For specific industrial applicati...

The discovery of the spin-torque effect has made magnetic nanodevices realistic candidates for active elements of memory devices and applications. Magnetoresistive effects allow the read-out of increasingly small magnetic bits, and the spin torque provides an efficient tool to manipulate - precisely, rapidly and at low energy cost - the magnetic state, which is in turn the central information m...

Ankle inversion-eversion compliance is an important feature of conventional prosthetic feet, and control of inversion, or roll, in robotic devices could improve balance for people with amputation. We designed a tethered ankle-foot prosthesis with two independently-actuated toes that are coordinated to provide plantarflexion and inversion-eversion torques. This configuration allows elegant, ligh...

– We study the torque arising between two corrugated metallic plates due to the interaction with electromagnetic vacuum. This Casimir torque can be measured with torsion pendulum techniques for separation distances as large as 1μm. It allows one to probe the nontrivial geometry dependence of the Casimir energy in a configuration which can be evaluated theoretically with accuracy. In the optimal...

The aim of this study is to employ the novel Adaptive Network-based Fuzzy Inference System to optimize the torque applied on the knee link of a rehabilitation robot. Given the special conditions of stroke or spinal cord injury patients, devices with minimum error are required for performing the rehabilitation exercises. After examining the anthropometric data tables of human body, parameters su...

Robotic prostheses have the potential to significantly improve mobility for people with lower-limb amputation. Humans exhibit complex responses to mechanical interactions with these devices, however, and computational models are not yet able to predict such responses meaningfully. Experiments therefore play a critical role in development, but have been limited by the use of product-like prototy...

The advantages/disadvantages of energy storage devices, which can provide nonpolluting automobile systems are discussed. Four types of storage devices are identified: electro-chemical (batteries) hydrogen electro-mechanical (flywheels) Molten salt heat storage A high speed flywheel with a small permanent magnet motor/generator has more advantages than any of the other systems and might become a...

Flagellated bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, are propelled by helical flagellar filaments, each driven at its base by a reversible rotary motor, powered by a transmembrane proton flux. Torque is generated by the interaction of stator proteins, MotA and MotB, with a rotor protein FliG. The physiology of the motor has been studied extensively in the regime of relatively high load and low speed...

The assembly of precision threaded parts in an automated assembly cell environment was examined. This task requires the application of torque to the parts at a precise level without overshoot. Piecewise linear and nonlinear dynamic models for threaded part mating were developed based upon experimental data. A torque control method using DC motor current feedback was implemented. Process and con...
