This paper deals with the torque characteristic of AFPM Brushless DC motor, which is driven by 3 phase inverter and with the effect of phase of input voltage to the output by varying the input voltage to the induced voltage in stator of motor. To accomplish this, a prototype AFPM Brushless DC Motor was produced and phase variation was detected by a set of photo interrupter. In this realized system. method to maximize the output torque depend on the speed of motor is presented.

This paper focuses on improvement of the reliability for endurance test to serve military automobiles. The driving loads have been measured by use of the wireless telemetry system for the drive shaft of the 4-wheel drive car. In order to analyze the transmission input torque and engine revolution of loads of the test courses and unpaved road have been made use of the revolution counting and cumulative damage by miner's rule. This paper presents the evaluated result for quantified damage about the test courses and roads.

In this study, a new design of an one-body type of an unbalanced-fixed- displacement type vane pump combined with an induction type electric motor was suggested. By the application of the new design scheme, it was possible to reduce the number of parts of the pump system and to cut down the volume of power package than that of already-used products. The case in this study enabled efficient heat transfer and electricity insulation of hydraulic fluid. Thus oil moves through the inside of the package for cooling and returns to the reservoir. Because of this design, it was difficult to measure the shaft-input torque. Therefore the package overall efficiency in the paper was evaluated with a ratio of hydraulic power and electric power.

This study proposes an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS)-based rotor position controller for brushless direct current (BLDC) motors to improve the control performance of the drive under transient and steady-state conditions. The dynamic response of a BLDC motor to the proposed ANFIS controller is considered as standard reference input. The effectiveness of the proposed controller is compared with that of the proportional integral derivative (PID) controller and fuzzy PID controller. The proposed controller solves the problem of nonlinearities and uncertainties caused by the reference input changes of BLDC motors and guarantees a fast and accurate dynamic response with an outstanding steady-state performance. Furthermore, the ANFIS controller provides low torque ripples and high starting torque. The detailed study includes a MATLAB-based simulation and an experimental prototype to illustrate the feasibility of the proposed topology.

A continuously variable transmission (CVT) with an inner spherical traction drive was conceptually designed for bicycle usage. The range of the overall speed ratio is from 1.0 to 4.5. The rated power and pedal speed are 100 Watts and 6 rad/s, respectively. The peculiar packageability, high-level power efficiency and high torque capacity were considered in the design process. A compact CVT that can be installed within a $244\times125\times160mm^3$ space and is above 0.9 in efficiency for the rated values was numerically designed. The distribution of efficiency according to the input torque and input speed were calculated. Gradeability in the prescribed operation mode was simulated.

A computer aided design of a Stephenson type of Chained six-link mechanism with synthesis equations of the precision positions technigue to generate a required point path is presented. Analysis of this mechanism is carried out by the matrix method. The torque on the input link required to operate the mechanism was obtained by considering inertia and gravity forces of the coupler link.

Purpose: This study aims to establish the effect of pinhole position errors in the planet carrier of a planetary gear set (PGS) on load sharing among the planet gears in the hydromechanical transmission (HMT) system of an agricultural tractor. Methods: A simulation model of a PGS with five planet gears was developed to analyze load sharing among the planet gears. The simulation model was verified by comparing i ts r esults w ith those of a model developed in a previous s tudy. The verified simulation model was used to analyze the load-sharing characteristics of the planet gears with respect to the pinhole position error and the input torque to the PGS. Results: Both simulation models had identical load magnitude sequences for the five planet gears. However, the load magnitudes on the corresponding planet gears differed between the models because of the different stiffnesses of the PGS components and the input torques to the PGS. The verified simulation model demonstrated that the evenness of load sharing among the planet gears increases with decreasing pinhole position error and increasing input torque. Conclusions: The geometrical tolerance of the pinhole position should be properly considered during the design of the planet carrier to improve the service life of the PGS and load sharing among the planet gears.

Direct torque control (DTC) of induction machines (IM) is a well-known strategy of these drives control which has a fast dynamic and a good tracking response. In this paper a nonlinear DTC of speed sensorless IM drives is presented which is based on input-output feedback linearization control theory. The IM model includes iron losses using a speed dependent shunt resistance which is determined through some effective experiments. A stator flux vector is estimated through a simple integrator based on stator voltage equations in the stationary frame. A novel method is introduced for DC offset compensation which is a major problem of AC machines, especially at low speeds. Rotor speed is also determined using a rotor flux sliding-mode (SM) observer which is capable of rotor flux space vector and rotor speed simultaneous estimation. In addition, stator and rotor resistances are estimated using a simple but effective recursive least squares (RLS) method combined with the so-called SM observer. The proposed control idea is experimentally implemented in real time using a FPGA board synchronized with a personal computer (PC). Simulation and experimental results are presented to show the capability and validity of the proposed control method.

This paper analyzes fault tolerance under a stator turn fault, according to the winding configuration. Improvement of torque characteristics and fault tolerance can be achieved by winding configuration without additional methods. And, torque characteristics and fault tolerance according to the winding configuration can be usually analyzed by analytical method. But, when the stator turn fault generates, compare to the steady-state, analysis of torque characteristics and fault tolerance using the analytical method is not accurate because it does not reflect influence in mutual inductance and magnetic non-linearity. Therefore, analysis of torque characteristics and fault tolerance has to be performed by using the numerical method under fault condition. This paper develops fault characteristics according to the winding configuration using the FEM-base model considered magnetic non-linearity. And, this paper suggests fault tolerance improvement according to the winding configuration, by the comparison of 8/12 and 10/12 models, under fault condition.

This paper presents a robust controller design for uncertain nonlinear systems with input saturation. In actual application, the robust controller may require a high input torque so that it faces input saturation due to power limitation of the system. The satruation problem may cause instability of the system. To improve this problem, a robust controller using a fuzzy logic control is proposed. The proposed controller keeps state errors bounded. To validate the proposed controller, an invert pendulum and its control system is set up. The experimental result shows bounded angular position errors under saturated input torques.
