This paper proposes a method for braking the variable flux-intensifying interior permanent-magnet synchronous motor (FI IPMSM) under a minimal time condition while operating in the high-speed region. The rare-earth PMs retain its magnetization as the flux weakening current is decreased. This inherent feature of the PMs makes the braking torque maximization possible for IPMSMs, thus minimal-time br... View full abstract»

Almost all the developing countries are electrifying more and more rail routes with high-voltage ac electric power, mostly with 25 kV, 50 Hz, or 60 Hz. However, electrified nonsuburban areas of tracks are prone to the risk of railway systems’ reliability. Deviation of 1 km in the informed fault location from the actual shall consume 40–50 min in excess to clear those faults off. This paper made in... View full abstract»
