In Part 1 of this two-part series, we presented a 3-phase, 480VAC motor circuit with its associated controls (Figure). We stepped through a logical, systematic approach to troubleshoot the main power ...

The motor system can be considered at three levels: motor behaviour, limb mechanics and neural control. Although our understanding at each level continues to grow, linking these levels into a cohesive ...

Figure 1 shows a block diagram of the dynamometer’s architecture. Table 1 describes each of the dynamometer components with the reasons for selection. 1. Shown is a block diagram of dynamometer. The ...

I was planning to use the opto-coupler speed sensor as part of a motor speed control – making the motor into the VCO block in a phase-locked loop. When this technique works, using it is simple: put ...
