Bipolar stepper motors are used in many applications, from driving paper through a printer to moving an XY stage in industrial equipment. Typically, the motors are driven and controlled by inexpensive ...

An optimal design and control technology of a wheel motor for electric passenger cars is proposed. The objectives are to maximize the driving torque, efficiency, rated speed, and to minimize weight of ...

A previous article (Standard Step-Motor Driver Interface Limits Performance) on step-motors berated open-loop stepping and the desperate methods used to avoid missed steps and acceleration limitations ...

The appeal of optimality principles lies in their ability to transform a parsimonious performance criterion into elaborate predictions regarding the behavior of a given system. Optimal control models ...
