The AC induction motor (ACIM) is the most popular motor used in consumer and industrial applications. The motor is highly reliable, as its simple design has no brushes that could wear out, and it can ...

Both software and hardware are parts of all motor control systems such as IGBTs, WBG semiconductors and MCUs. Industry 4.0 strongly relies on motor control for its development but energy consumption ...

The topic of motors and motor control techniques is wide and varied. Part one of this two-part article will cover the principles of alternating-current (AC) motor operation and control. Part two will ...

High-performance motors need a control mechanism that ensures enhanced smoothness, reliability, and efficiency. One of the most apt examples of such an application is the motor used in ...

Designing robots requires precision and flexibility. When creating a humanoid robot system, there are mechanical and electrical considerations that you need to understand before beginning the actual ...

Permanent magnet dc motors need a chunky inductor in series with them if they are fed from an SCR (thyristor) based mains power controller. It is (probably!) possible to safely interface an Arduino to ...

Motors account for at least half of the energy consumed in the U.S. Selecting the right control method for an application lets the motor run most efficiently while maximizing torque and overall ...

Note: This specialization requires purchase of a hardware kit in order to apply your knowledge and skill with real world tools. The hardware will be used to complete the lab exercises across the four ...

Locomotion is a complex motor act that, to a large degree, is controlled by neuronal circuits in the spinal cord. Using a systems neuroscience approach in several model systems of non-limbed and ...
