Electromechanical Motion Systems

This course covers the fundamental concepts of electromechanical motion systems. It begins with an exploration of the singly excited linear system, using a coil bound around a hollow length with an iron bar as an example. The course then delves into the concept of inductance in electromechanical systems, focusing on linear and rotational systems, and uses a solenoid switch as an illustrative example. The course further explores the concept of field energy and its changes over time, using a system with a cylindrical stator and rotor as an example. It also introduces the concept of stable and unstable equilibrium points. The course concludes with a detailed study of non-linear magnetic systems, discussing the rate of change of field energy with respect to time and how it helps derive an expression for the generated forces and torque in the non-linear magnetic system.
