Modeling and control design simulations of a linear flux-switching permanent-magnet-levitated motor

For flux-switching PM (FSPM) motors, permanent magnets (PMs) are placed in the stator and not in the rotor structure as in the majority of PM motor designs. Recently, FSPM bearingless motors have been developed for special applications. The FSPM concept can be adapted to linear motors. For linear mo...
