As a contribution towards improving the environment, a new position controller for vector controlled electric drives employing permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) is presented that achieves approximately 27% less frictional energy loss than a ...

A new closed loop control system for permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drives is presented that minimises energy loss for changes of position of a balanced mechanical load in a specified manoeuvre time with zero initial and final velocities. An ...

This paper presents a vision for the future design of electrical machines and the systems in which they are employed with a view to achieving a contribution to the overall energy consumption minimisation throughout industry. For example, developments in ...
