Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent decades, significant advancements have been achieved in electrification, sustainability, and automation across many industries. Global electrification efforts to tackle carbon emissions and other environmental challenges will surely continue; therefore, the development of advanced electrical machines, which work as critical components in electrical propulsion and drive systems, is valuable for both academia and the industry sectors. To address the ever-increasing demands for electrical generation and propulsion systems in different applications, advanced electrical machines are required to provide high efficiency, high reliability, and the integrated design of machine drives.
The development of advanced electrical machines and drives, via the integration of electrical machine and power electronics devices, requires innovative approaches and efforts at both the component level and systematic level. Additionally, novel designs, optimization, and new techniques for manufacturing electrical machine and power electronics converters can facilitate the development of ground-breaking, high-performance machine and drive systems, thereby enabling high efficiency and high reliability. On the control side, cutting-edge control methods and algorithms, including predictive control, fault-tolerant control, and sensorless control, are being explored to enhance the performance of machine drive systems. Moreover, the integration of electrical machines and drives may also inspire further performance improvements from the systematic perspective. Thus, it is advantageous to promote the research and application of advanced electrical machines.
This Special Issue is dedicated to providing a platform for researchers to share their research and advancements in electrical machines and drives related to high efficiency, high reliability, and integrated machine drive systems, as well as to contribute to ongoing progress in this dynamic field.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Multi-phase electrical machines and drives;
- Fault diagnosis and fault-tolerant control of electrical machines and converters;
- Advanced linear motors and drives;
- High-speed electrical machines and drives;
- Non- or less permanent magnet machines (switched reluctance machine, hybrid excited machine, etc.);
- Sensorless control of electrical machines;
- High-power density motors and converters;
- Motor and drive integrated system;
- Loss modeling and high efficiency design of electrical machines and converters;
- High reliability topology, structure, and assembly of electrical machines;
- Multi-physics design of electrical machines;
- Artificial-intelligence-assisted design of electrical machines and drives.
We look forward to hearing from you.
