Permanent-magnet (PM) machines have attracted a lot of interest in various applications
since they have the merits of high torque density, high power density and high efficiency …

Linear motion is richly present in various industries, from direct electric propulsion in urban
and interurban people movers on wheels or on magnetic “cushions”(MAGLEVs) to indoor …

This paper proposes a novel linear permanent-magnet (PM) vernier machine, which offers
high force density, high efficiency, simple structure, and low cost. The novelty of the …

Linear machines (LMs) produce linear motion without any intermediate transmission
mechanisms, thus the whole electromechanical system has simple structure and its …

In this paper, a transverse-flux flux-reversal linear motor (TF-FRLM) is proposed. With
magnets on the primary side, the proposed motor is suitable for long-stroke application …

Magnetically levitated planar motor is a new-generation motion device in modern precision
industry, while its advanced motion controller design is still of main concern. In this paper, a …

In this paper, two main kinds of the secondary, ie, the solid and laminated back iron
secondary, are applied in linear metro, as well as electromagnetic forces and secondary …

This paper proposed a new fault-tolerant direct thrust force control (DTFC) for a dual inverter
fed open-end winding linear vernier permanent-magnet (LVPM) motor. First, the topology …

Linear flux-switching permanent magnet (LFSPM) motors have drawn extensive concern for
rail transit drive systems because permanent magnets and armature windings are all located …

In this paper, a global task coordinate frame (GTCF)-based learning adaptive robust
contouring controller is proposed for an industrial X–Y linear-motor-driven stage to achieve …
