Early incarnations of the electric motor first appeared in the 1740s through the work of Scottish Benedictine monk and scientist, Andrew Gordon. Other scientists such as Michael Faraday and Joseph ...
Scientists at the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) have developed a new class of lightweight, highly conductive carbon nanotube (CNT) wiring that does away with copper and aluminum ...
Nikesh Kooverjee has been contributing to the automotive sphere for 11 years. His previous roles include Digital Editor at CAR South Africa and associate editor at CarBuzz. He has always had a strong ...
We’ve long-admired internal combustion engines for their power density pursuits. Extremely high horsepower-to-liter ratios for naturally aspirated cars like the Honda S2000, Ferrari 458 Speciale, or, ...
Methods for measuring and reporting horsepower of electric outboards are debated within the industry. Trolling-motor makers such as Minn Kota, Lowrance, Garmin and Rhodan report the power of their ...
The use of axial flux motors is gaining traction across industries, particularly in the electric motor space. Axial flux motors or pancake motors are mechanically configured to provide specific ...
An introduction to the symmetric, multiphase, wound-rotor “synchronous” doubly-fed motor or generator system, called SYNCHRO-SYM. How SYNCHRO-SYM is only possible with brushless, automatic, ...
System-level thermal signature control designed to reduce detectable heat concentration while maintaining efficiency and reliability. Thermal signature is a first-order constraint for deployable ...
How the challenges of electric-motor control design can be overcome using digital twins in all design and test phases. How automated testing within a continuous and integrated toolchain is able to ...
