Course Description: Energy transfer between magnetic and electric fields produce linear and rotational forces which underlie numerous engineering applications. Through the examination of magnetic material properties and coupling fields and derivation of physics-based equivalent circuit representations, students will gain the ability to understand, model, simulate and design a large class of electromechanical devices. Devices investigated include: linear motors, switched reluctance stepper and servo motors, DC and AC rotational machines. This course also provides foundational knowledge for other topics such as robotics and hybrid electric vehicles.
