An electro-dynamic Magnetic Levitation vehicular system has been
modelled and studied. In practice, a MagLev vehicle will consist of a
number of cars which are mechanically coupled to each other. It is
reasonable to assume that each of these cars will be independently
controlled with the help of a supervisory...
A Brushless, Doubly Fed Machine (BDFM) attempts to combine the advantages
of conventional induction and synchronous types of electrical machines by its unique
architecture. The validation of BDFM designs in an actual test environment requires the
estimation of the BDFM model parameters from actual experimentation. Accurate values
for the parameters...
