Analysis, design, and control of advanced brushless synchronous machines with power converters

The major goal of the paper is to perform the comprehensive and thorough studies of developments in nonlinear analysis, design, control, and deployment of advanced electromechanical systems with synchronous machines (motors and generators). The integration of power converters, sensors, and microprocessors depicts the realistic situation encountered in engineering practice, and this realism has stimulated the industry and academia interest in advanced analysis and design to provide a means for developing newest systems to reduce the current drawbacks and satisfy industry needs. The paper approaches and solves extremely challenging nonlinear analysis and control problems for highly nonlinear electromechanical dynamic systems without placing the problem studied into the scope of pure theoretical research. Our goal is to derive mathematical models, develop innovative design methods, synthesize novel nonlinear controllers, implement control algorithms, and perform experimental studies.
