Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

With the advances of artificial intelligence (AI) and related semiconductor technology, “AI for Science” has gradually become a new paradigm for cutting-edge scientific research. However, in the domain of a traditional discipline, motor drive systems, scholars have not yet constructed a mature theoretical system where AI can be feasibly applied. Several crucial problems urgently need to be solved to promote the cross-disciplinary integration of AI and motor drive systems: (1) Explainable AI (XAI) during the optimization and control processes of motor drive; (2) Stability and reliability of AI-assisted motor control; (3) Hardware's computational burden reduction for AI-assisted algorithm implementation.

This Special Issue welcomes manuscript submissions related to the integration of AI with motor drive systems, from electric machine material determination, topology design, structural parameter optimization, and motor control to fault diagnosis. Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Neural networks for optimal material composition determination of motors;
  • Physics-informed neutral networks for multi-physics analysis in motor drives;
  • Acceleration techniques for heuristic optimization algorithms in motor design;
  • Surrogate models for the motor’s structural parameter optimization;
  • Neural networks and Gaussian processes for motor control;
  • Computationally efficient AI-assisted algorithms for motor control;
  • Identification and compensation of nonlinear characteristics in motor drives based on AI algorithms;
  • AI-based motor condition monitoring algorithms and AI-assisted fault-tolerant control;
  • Intelligent sensor fusion and cooperative control in multi-motor systems;
  • AI-assisted motor drives for electric vehicle and robot applications.

This paper proposes an analytical model of the double-stator spoke-type permanent magnet vernier machine (DSSTVM) using the subdomain method (SDM), which can be used to calculate the magnetic field distribution and corresponding electromagnetic parameters of the DSSTVM. The whole field domain is divided into several subdomains according to the magnetic characteristics of each region, within which Laplace’s and Poisson’s equations are solved accordingly in terms of magnetic vector potential (MVP). Then, the corresponding magnetic flux density distribution, back electromotive force (EMF), and electromagnetic torque of the DSSTVM can be obtained. Ultimately, finite element analysis (FEA) is adopted to validate the proposed analytical model’s effectiveness for quickly predicting the no-load and on-load performances of the DSSTVM. Full article
