The Electric Power Steering (EPS) has been applied to the vehicles due to its better fuel efficiency, better steering feel, and the compact volume compared to the hydraulic power steering. The brushed PM (Permanent Magnet) DC motors had been adopted in most of the EPS systems until several years ago due to its easy control and a simple hardware configuration of the power converter, but nowadays the BLAC (Brushless AC) motor is becoming more popular for the EPS system because of its high efficiency and long lifetime. This paper reviews the configuration of the EPS system and the BLAC motor and drive technologies based on the papers published recently. The torque ripple reduction for steering feel and the fault detection algorithms for safety are also reviewed.

In this paper, the double inverted pendulum having a single actuator is built and the controller for the system is proposed. The lower link is hinged on the plate to free for rotation in the x-z plane. The upper link is connected to the lower link through a DC motor. The double inverted pendulum built can be kept upright posture by controlling the position of the upper link even though the proposed inverted pendulum has no actuator in lower hinge. The algorithm to control the inverted pendulum is consisted of a state feedback controller within a linearizable range and a fuzzy logic controller coupled with a feedback linearization control for the rest of the range. Concept of the virtual work is employed to drive the linearlized model for the state feedback controller. The feedback linearization controller drives a DC motor with the modified reference joint angle from the fuzzy controller which adjusts a upright posture of a proposed pendulum system. Finally, the experiments are conducted to show the validity of the proposed controller.

Accurate and quick positioning of the throttle valve in driving situation is required to implement the Traction Control System(TCS). Also, unlike a conventional throttle valve which is connected to the accelerator directly by a wire, an Electronic Throttle Valve(ETV) is driven by a DC motor and can move dependently upon the accurate position of the accelerator. In the research, the Electronic Throttle Body(ETB) and Controller for TCS application was developed. In order to drive the DC motor, the developed controller was built and interfaced to the ECU and ETB. The PID position control algorism and developed systems are designed to realize the robust tracking control of the ETV. Actual vehicle tests with these systems and PID position control algorithm. Finally, the performance of the proposed those are evaluated with the experimental studies.

This paper presents the photovoltaic(PV) water pumping system with a maximum power point tracking(MPPT). The wale- pumping system uses a variable speed single phase induction motor(SPIM) driven a centrifugal pimp by field oriented control(FOC) inverter. The MPPT using a DC-DC converter controlled the duty cycle to track maximum power from PV under different insolation conditions. The duty cycle directly relate with a flux producing current control($i_{ds}$). The FOC inverter uses a current control voltage source inverter(CC-VSI). The simulation results are shown that the characteristics and performance of drive system, which varies as each conditions of light by expresses in voltage ($V_{dq}$), current($I_{dq}$), speed of motor and torque.

A half-bridge ZVS-PWM converter with complementary switch is described in this paper. Zero Voltage Switching is analyzed taking into account the effect of the leakage inductor of transformer. The main advantages of this converter, that are high efficiency for low output voltage, soft-switching for primary and very small pulsation for DC motor, are shown in a simulation.

The chattering phenominon is the one of the problems on Variable Structure Controller(VSC). To alleviate this problem, Modified Variable Structure Controller(MVSC) with sliding sector is presented in this paper. This controller is adopted to the position drive system of brushless dc motor. For the simplification of hardware, the current controller also uses the sliding mode control method. Computer simulations are presented to show chattering alleviation of the proposed control scheme.

IoT(Internet of Things) is no longer just a concept, and It has become common as individual users have tried to implement it directly through small boards and components. This research implemented a system to control a general toy car using Raspberry pi and motor driver. This research will help develop ordinary toy cars to RC cars or learn on their own and drive on their own through further development.

Using back electro-motive force(EMF) signals of a brushless DC motor, the sensorless micro-processor controlled drive system was developed. In this new commutation method, the manual pulses are used for relatively short accelerating phase and then the exact commutational positions are detected based upon the back emf signals. The hardware and software implementations with the experiment to compare the performance of the developed system with the, conventional system using hall effect sensors are included. By reducing the number of the required sensors in the artificial heart control system, the total reliability will be incresed.

In this paper, in order to develop the three phase GTO CSI of high efficiency 1M drive with low loss commutation and snubber energy, we studied the energy recovery circuit to recover stored energy in clamping capacitor and DC link inductor(VCC-l and VCC-2), and snubber capacitor(VCC-3). By using an induction motor as the load of inverter, experimental results show that dissipated DC power is decreased and capacitor voltage Vc is effectively suppressed by VCC-2 and VCC-3 system, and the validity of VCC-3 system with low loss commutation and snubber energy is proofed.roofed.

In this paper, a single-phase to three-phase PWM converter topology using six switches only for low cost induction motor drive is proposed. The converter topology is of lower cost than the conventional one, which gives sinusoidal input current, unity power factor, dc output voltage control and bidirectional power flow In addition, the source voltage sensor is eliminated by controlling the deviation between the model current and the system current to be zero. The performance of the proposed converter has been demonstrated through the computer simulation.
