Linear Synchronous Motors: Transportation and Automation Systems, Second Edition

By Zbigniew J Piech, Bronislaw Tomczuk, Jacek F. Gieras, et al.

Book Overview

This book focuses on the construction, electromagnetic effects, control, applications, and selection of electromechanical drives with linear synchronous motors. Fully revised and updated throughout, this edition offers several new chapters, new illustrative material, and more numerical examples. It explains the physics of hard magnetic material and superconductors and addresses technologies in factory automation and high speed transportation systems with linear motors. The authors also discuss modern applications of brushless linear synchronous motors with permanent magnets and superconducting excitation systems.
