Speed Estimation of High-Speed Hysteresis Motor Based on Extended Kalman Filter
Abstract: High-speed hysteresis motors are used in special industries such as medical centrifuges and gyroscopes. In spite of that, they are synchronous motors in some situations they may work in asynchronous speed. So, for reliable performance of hysteresis motor, closed loop control strategies are employed. On this way, speed/position of rotor must be known. Due to difficulty of using the speed sensors in high-speed hysteresis motor drives, employing the speed estimation …

Engineering Perspectives: Thermal and Structural Examination of Disc Brakes for Light Vehicles
Abstract: The procedure of braking transforms the kinetic energy of a car into mechanical energy that needs to be released as heat. High temperatures may result from the frictional heat produced at the disc and pad interface during the braking phase. Frictional heat produced on the rotor surface can contribute to an excessive rise in temperature, which can have unfavorable effects including premature wear, brake fluid vaporization (BFV), thermally excited vibrations …
