Electrical Actuators: Identification and Observation

This helpful resource covers a large range of information regarding electrical actuators. In particular, robustness, a very problematic issue, is fully explored in a dedicated chapter. The text also deals with he estimate of non-measurable mechanical variables by examining the estimate of load moment, then observation of the positioning of a command without mechanical sensor. Finally, it examines the conditions needed to measure variables and real implementation of numerical algorithms. This is a key working resource for electrical engineers.Content: Chapter 1 Identification of Induction Motor in Sinusoidal Mode (pages 1–48): Edouard Laroche and Jean?Paul LouisChapter 2 Modeling and Parameter Determination of the Saturated Synchronous Machine (pages 49–117): Ernest Matagne and Emmanuel de JaegerChapter 3 Real?Time Estimation of the Induction Machine Parameters (pages 119–174): Luc LoronChapter 4 Linear Estimators and Observers for the Induction Machine (IM) (pages 175–250): Maria Pietrzak?David, Bernard de Fornel and Alain BouscayrolChapter 5 Decomposition of a Determinist Flux Observer for the Induction Machine: Cartesian and Reduced Order Structures (pages 251–283): Alain Bouscayrol, Maria Pietrzak?David and Bernard de FornelChapter 6 Observer Gain Determination Based on Parameter Sensitivity Analysis (pages 285–319): Benoit RobynsChapter 7 Observation of the Load Torque of an Electrical Machine (pages 321–404): Maurice Fadel and Bernard de FornelChapter 8 Observation of the Rotor Position to Control the Synchronous Machine without Mechanical Sensor (pages 405–459): Stephane Caux and Maurice Fadel
