In this paper modelling and analysis of the SRM torque characteristics including torque ripples are described. Optimal control strategy based on genetic algorithm (GA) to minimize torque ripple is proposed. The optimization criteria depend on choosing the exact current profile based on the optimal excitation parameters which govern the torque shape. The model and control are carried out on high...

this paper gives a detailed analysis of direct torque control (dtc) strategy in a five-level drive and proposes a 24-sector switching table. the overvoltage problem due to high dv/dt is reduced compared to the 12-sector dtc. using all vectors leads to better flexibility and reduces speed oscillations. simulation and experimental results for a 3kva prototype confirm the proposed solutions. a tms...

A new torque control strategy for brushless motors with minimum torque ripple and minimum copper losses while maintaining the phase currents under magnetic (or current) saturation is presented. The optimal control { a nonlinear map from desired torque and position to the motor's phase currents { is the closed form solution to a quadratic programming problem. Experimental results demonstrate vir...

in direct torque control, the selection of an applied voltage vector is based on the measuredparameters at the beginning of the sampling period. the delay between the measurement and the application of the voltage vector is the origin of an extra torque ripple. in this paper, a new predictive controller is proposed for compensating this delay and reducing the torque ripple. the stator current i...

this paper presents the results of the assembly process of a gasketed bolted flanged pipe joint for two different bolt tightening strategies, i.e. asme and industrial using torque control of preload method.  the final clamping force is achieved in four and five passes in asme and industrial strategy respectively. axial bolt stress variation, at the end of each pass, individual bolt bending beha...

Torque smoothness is an essential requirement for high-performance motor drive applications. Synchronous reluctance machines (SyRM) have high torque ripple due to non-linear magnetic circuit and saturation. Typically, in Permanent magnet the active compensation achieved by injecting a compensating current q-axis. For SyRM, injection method cancellation can be used both d-axis Howe...

Given that power-split transmission (PST) is considered to be a major powertrain technology for hybrid heavy-duty vehicles (HDVs), the development and application of PST in the HDVs make mode shift control an essential aspect of powertrain system design. This paper presents a shift schedule design and torque control strategy for a hybrid HDV with PST during mode shift, intended to reduce the ou...

The paper deals with a Dual Induction Motor control. A control strategy based on the Average Differential Control (ADC) is developed and adapted to work as an anti-slip control in a railway traction system. In addition to cancel the behaviour deviation between the motors supplied by a single inverter in case of an adhesion loss (or an unbalanced load), the proposed control strategy permits an a...
