The dynamic response and the mooring line tension of a 1/75 scale model of spar-type platform for 2.5 MW floating offshore wind turbine subject to one-dimensional regular harmonic wave are investigated numerically and verified by experiment. The upper part of wind turbine which is composed of three rotor blades, hub and nacelle is modeled as a lumped mass the scale model and three mooring lines are pre-tensioned by means of linear springs. The coupled fluid-rigid body interaction is numerically simulated by a coupled FEM-cable dynamics code, while the experiment is performed in a wave tank with the specially-designed vision and data acquisition system. The time responses of surge, heave and pitch motions of the scale platform and the mooring line tensions are obtained numerically and the frequency domain-converted RAOs are compared with the experiment.

In this study, it carried out Electromagnetic Field Analysis of Magnetic Bearing due to stator structure and it got the electrical characteristics of 3 structure types of AMB(Active magnetic bearing) systems to get optimal design criteria. The results of simulation in three types of AMB, using FEM method, type 1, 2, and 3 had many paths to move magnetic flux vectors from N pole to S pole and magnetic flux lines are transferred to rotor as a shaft. The paths help to rotate the rotors. So, their data of electrical properties carry out design of magnetic bearing system and the data help to make design criteria.

Climate change and other pollutions make a huge demand of environment friendly and high efficient motors especially Brushless DC (BLDC) motors. Generally, bidirectional energized BLDC motors are used widely; however, inverter devices used in the driver put fear of being effected by noise. This paper proposes unidirectional energized BLDC motor which utilizes asymmetrical H-bridge circuit as the driver circuit. The Minato motor is one of the pioneers in unidirectional energized system. The use of bar magnets in the rotor is one of the biggest disadvantages of the motor. We proposed using tabular magnets. The paper compares the power consumption and efficiency of the Minato motor and the proposed motor. During high speed rotation, undesirable armature current is generated that has a deceleration characteristic. This current lowers the motor's efficiency. In this paper, we propose the solutions and show comparison through equations of the copper loss ratio for the Minato and our proposed motors. The third motor, which has the highest efficiency, was discovered during examination of the equations.

Fixed speed wind turbine generators system that uses induction generator as a wind generator has the stability problem similar to a synchronous generator. On the other hand, doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) has the flexibility to control its real and reactive powers independently while being operated in variable speed mode. This paper focuses on a scheme where IG is stabilized by using DFIG during grid fault. In that case, DFIG will be heavily stressed and a remedy should be found out to protect the frequency converter as well as to allow the independent control of real and reactive powers without loosing the synchronism. For that purpose, a crowbar protection switch or DC-link protecting device can be considered. This paper presents a comparative study between two protective schemes, a crowbar circuit connected across the rotor of the DFIG and a protective device connected in the DC-link circuit of the frequency converter. Simulation analysis by using PSCAD/EMTDC shows that both schemes could effectively protect the DFIG, but the latter scheme is superior to the former, because of less circuitry involved.

The vibration and noise reduction issue is very important in helicopter since the thrust and flight control force of helicopter are generated by rotating drive system. In past, there was a passive method to reduce vibration and noise to focus on specified frequency. Now, there are various active method to reduce vibration and noise due to technology development. This paper describes the worldwide technology trend of vibration and noise active control in helicopter. At introduction, generalmethod of vibration and noise reduction.

This paper deals with the torque ripple reduction of permanent magnet synchronous motor using harmonic current injection. Torque ripple of electric motor reduces system stability and performances, therefore efforts to reduce torque ripple are exerted in the design process. Torque ripple can be reduced by appropriate pole/slot combination, skew of rotor or stator, design of magnetic circuit, etc. In addition, torque ripple can be also reduced by input voltage and current, and many researches have been conducted to reduce torque ripple for six-step drive. Torque ripple reduction for current vector controlled permanent magnet synchronous motor also have been conducted and verified by investigating back emf wave form. Torque ripple reduction in this paper started from getting torque profile according to input current and electrical angle calculated by FEA, then instantaneous currents at each electrical angles for constant torque are calculated and applied to experiments. Therefore, 0% of torque ripple can be obtained theoretically with harmonic current injection. In order to maximize the effect of torque ripple reduction, a BLDC motor having high harmonic component of back emf is chosen. With sinusoidal current drive, over 100% of torque ripple is obtained initially, then 0.5 % of torque ripple is obtained by FEA using harmonic current injection. The effect is verified by experiment and the presented method can be effectively applicable to Electric Power Steering(EPS).

This paper is proposed a fuzzy neural network controller based on the vector controlled surface permanent magnet synchronous motor(SPMSM) drive system. The hybrid combination of neural network and fuzzy control will produce a powerful representation flexibility and numerical processing capability. Also, this paper is proposed speed control of SPMSM using neuro-fuzzy control(NFC) and estimation of speed using artificial neural network(ANN) Controller. The back propagation neural network technique is used to provide a real time adaptive estimation of the motor speed. The error between the desired state variable and the actual one is back-propagated to adjust the rotor speed, so that the actual state variable will coincide with the desired one. The back propagation mechanism is easy to derive and the estimated speed tracks precisely the actual motor speed. This paper is proposed the theoretical analysis as well as the simulation results to verify the effectiveness of the new method.

The dynamic model of ac servo motor is influenced very much due to rotor resistance change and nonlinear characteristic. By using the sliding mode control the dynamic behavior of system can be made insensitive to plant parameter change and external disturbance. This paper describes the application of the sliding mode control for position control of ac servo motor. The control scheme is derived and designed. A design method based on external load parameters has been developed for the robust control of ac induction servo drive. The proposed control scheme are given based on the variable structure controller and slip frequency vector control. Simulated results are given to verify the proposed design method by adoption of sliding mode and show robust control for a change of shaft initial J, viscous friction B and torque disturbance.

In our design and analysis, rotor consisting of permanent magnets and slot less iron-cored coil stator are treated in a uniform way via vector potiential. For one such motor structure we give analytical formulas for its magnetic field, opitimal permanent magnet and winding coil thickness, trust force. We also provide comparisons of three types in Halbach, vertical, and horizontal magnet array.

This paper deals with the design of 1-kW troidal type gyro. In general, gyro can be used as magnet bearing or flywheel energy storage device. The proposed troidal type gyro is used as a flywheel energy storage device. The gyro is capable of high-speed rotation in the air. The coriolis effect is taken into account when designing the rotor of the proposed gyro. Also the repulsive power of the permanent magnet is considered while selecting the shape and the thickness of the magnet. The neodymium is used as material of the magnets in this paper. The number of magnets are selected accordingly to reduce these torque ripples because torque ripples is an important factor while designing the gyro. The designed troidal type gyro is verified through the Finite Element Method (FEM).
