Despite two decades of massive strides in research and development on control strategies
and their subsequent implementation, most books on permanent magnet motor drives still …

This paper compares the many fault tolerant three-phase ac motor drive topologies that have
been proposed to provide output capacity for the inverter faults of switch short or open …

Permanent-magnet (PM) motors with both magnets and armature windings on the stator
(stator PM motors) have attracted considerable attention due to their simple structure, robust …

In this paper, a two-level fault-tolerant voltage source inverter (VSI) for permanent magnet
drives is systematically designed and tested. A standard two-level inverter consists of three …

The paper describes a study and an experimental verification of remedial strategies against
failures occurring in the inverter power devices of a permanent-magnet synchronous motor …

With the rise of application industries such as aerospace, wind power generation, and ship
propulsion in recent years, the dependability requirements of motor systems have become …

In this paper, an optimal control technique for n-phase permanent-magnet (PM) machines
under various open circuit faults is presented. Under the fault conditions, the currents in the …

A closed-form solution is presented for the steady-state response of interior permanent
magnet (IPM) synchronous machines to symmetrical short circuits including the effects of q …

Interior permanent-magnet (PM) synchronous motors are extensively used in many
industrial drives and the development of fault-tolerant control techniques may extend their …

The detection of noncatastrophic faults in conjunction with other factors can be used to
determine the remaining life of an electric drive. As the frequency and severity of these faults …
