Abstract: This chapter introduces the "forcing function" of the magnetic field of a typical AC machine, namely the stator magnetomotive force (MMF). The stator MMF primarily acts to magnetize the ...

Once the control method of choice only in high-performance industrial ac-servo drives, FOC (field-oriented control) is finding its way into lower end industrial and many appliance applications with ...

Abstract: Fault-tolerant operation capability has become important in AC machine drives as their applications are rapidly expanding towards transportation, renewable energy generation, and ...
