Fault-tolerant Traction Electric Drives: Reliability, Topologies and Components Design (1st ed. 2020.)

This concise book focuses on the reliability of traction electrical drives.

The first chapter presents the Lz-transform approach for the comparative analysis of the fault tolerance of multi-motor electrical drives with multi-phase traction motors.

The second chapter then provides an estimate of the value of the operational availability and performance of a diesel-electric multi-drive propulsion system, while the third chapter introduces the concept of a more electric aircraft.

Lastly, the fourth chapter analyzes the requirements for multi-phase permanent-magnet motors applicable in various aircraft systems.
