On real-time simulation of induction motors

We address concerns relating to building real-time executable software models to simulate the dynamics of an induction motor driving a vehicle. Using an example, we investigate how the selection of a reference frame influences the ability to simulate the induction motor dynamics in real-time. We also investigate the possible advantages of a state transition matrix based approach over the standard simulation techniques based on Euler integration.
