Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleINVESTIGATION ON THE DIAGNOSIS OF SIMPLE AND COMBINES MECHANICAL FAULTS IN ASYNCHRONOUS MOTOR BASED ELECTRIC DRIVESBouras A. Karim, Bouras Slimane, Hadjadj A. Elias et al.In this study, the problems of mechanical unbalance, parallel and angular misalignments and their combinations are analyzed experimentally. Such frequent defects in the drives mainly in the major powers are also responsible for the bearings degradation. However, they have not raised the attention of researchers, given the complexity of their modeling. The combination of the phasic current signal analysis and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 6 · 11 Apr 2014 · 6,688 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Drives and Control Integrated Time-Domain Dynamic Analysis and Modeling Approach Applied To Ultra-Precision Machine ToolsTianjian Li, Shijin Chen, Haijun Zhang, Kai ChengProblem statement: Machines dynamic performance depends not only upon the mechanical structure and components but also the drives and control system. However, the design of the machines is still at the nascent stage by working on an individual machine basis, hence lacks generic scientific approach and design guideline. Approach: Using computer models integrated drives and control system to predict the … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 29 Jul 2011 · 8,094 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFAULT DETECTION IN SWITCHED RELUCTANCE MOTOR DRIVES USING DISCRETE WAVELET TRANSFORM AND K-MEANS CLUSTERINGV. S. Chandrika, A. Ebenezer JeyakumarThis study presents a novel method of detection of inter turn shorts based on k means clustering technique. In addition to inter turn short detection, the other faults like open, short, phase to phase faults and DC volt-age faults are detected through wavelet transforms and k means clustering. Open and short faults are classified using artificial neural network. All other … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 30 Dec 2013 · 7,990 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleElectromagnetic Interference Mitigation for Inverter fed AC DrivesC. Karthikeyan, K. DuraiswamyProblem statement: In switched mode PWM inverter EMI noise occurs during high (dv/dt) transient period. This EMI noise is mitigated using Active Common mode EMI filter in front of the source. Approach: This study proposes a new active common mode Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) filter for switched mode PWM Inverter applications. The proposed filter is based on current sensing and compensation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 12 Sep 2011 · 7,313 accessesView PDFCite
