Considered to be the first book devoted to the subject, Linear
Synchronous Motors: Transportation and Automation Systems, Second
Edition evaluates the state of the art, demonstrating the
technological innovations that are improving the design,
construction, and performance of modern control systems. This new
edition not only illustrates the development of linear synchronous
motor drives, but it also discusses useful techniques for selecting
a motor that will meet the specific requirements of linear
electrical drives.
New Features for the Second Edition:
- Several updated and expanded sections, as well as two new
chapters on FEM
- Even more numerical examples, calculations, and mathematical
models
- Broadened target audience that includes researchers,
scientists, students, and more
Evaluating trends and practical techniques for achieving optimal
system performance, the authors showcase ready-to-implement
solutions for common roadblocks in this process. The book presents
fundamental equations and calculations used to determine and
evaluate system operation, efficiency, and reliability, with an
exploration of modern computer-aided design of linear synchronous
motors, including the finite element approach. It covers topics
such as linear sensors and stepping motors, magnetic levitation
systems, elevators, and factory automation systems. It also
features case studies on flat PM, tubular PM, air-cored, and hybrid
linear synchronous motors, as well as 3D finite element method
analysis of tubular linear reluctance motors, and linear
oscillatory actuators.
With such an exceptional presentation of practical tools and
conceptual illustrations, this volume is an especially powerful
resource. It will benefit readers from all walks by providing
numerical examples, models, guidelines, and diagrams to help
develop a clear understanding of linear synchronous motor
operations, characteristics, and much more.
