background: mechanical torque limiting devices (mtlds) are necessary tools to control a peak torque and achieving target values of screw component of dental implants. due to probable effect of autoclaving and number of use on the accuracy of these devices, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of sterilization and number of use on the accuracy of friction-style mechanical torque limiting devi...

This paper presents a detailed recent research trend on multi-phase induction machines, which include multiphase induction motor as well as the multiphase induction generator. Electrical power system developed so far was of three phases since the beginning of the last century but research in the field of multi-phase machines have attracted increased interest in recent years due to the several a...

Omni-drive systems operate by having individual wheels apply torque in one direction in the same way as a regular wheel, but are able to slide freely in another direction (often perpendicular to the torque vector). The key advantage of omni-drive systems is that translational and rotational motion are decoupled for simple motion. However, in considering the fastest possible motion this is not n...

The study presents the development and implementation of a new sensorless algorithm for estimating the rotor position at a wide range of operating conditions. The algorithm is designed to overcome difficulties in estimating the rotor position at starting as well as at the normal operation region. The algorithm is successfully implemented experimentally using SRM fed from a photovoltaic source w...

In this paper a comparison of classical, adaptive and neural control strategies for a robotic manipulator with two revolute joints is presented. The conventional computed-torque method is presented, as a starting point for the design of the adaptive and neural control techniques. Two adaptive control strategies, a non-model based neural control strategy and a model based neural control strategy...

Permanent magnet (PM) motors are rapidly replacing the squirrel cage induction for its energy efficient operation, smooth control and high power density. Although PM Motors efficient, they inherently affected by cogging torque ripple. Magnetic alignment between teeth of stator permanent rotors produce torque. Torque ripple is a dynamic oscillation during steady-steady operation which leads to v...

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 traction motor sizing for optimal urban fuel economy in two mild and three strong hybridization propulsion on front-wheel-drive vehicles. The traction motor sizes, by means of motor rated torque and speed, are optimized for maximum urban fuel economy. The two mild hybrids are Belt-Integrated-Starter-Generator (BISG) and Crankshaft-Integrated-Starter-Generator (C-ISG) sys...

in conventional direct torque control (dtc), the stator flux is usually kept constant by controlling the x-axis component of the stator voltage in the stator flux reference frame. the torque is then controlled by the y-axis component of stator voltage. in this scenario, the stator current does not exceed its permissible value. however, in the so-called optimal efficiency mode, the induction mot...
