Linear Synchronous Motors: Transportation and Automation Systems (Electric Power Engineering Series)

Contrary to some opinions, electric motors are decidedly not part of an old-fashioned area of research. They are, in fact, the most popular machines of everyday life, and the number of types increase almost every year. Advances in materials engineering, power electronics, and control strategies along with energy and reliability demands continue to stimulate the development of exciting new technologies and applications. Ranking high among the most exciting of these technologies are linear synchronous motors (LSMs).

Linear Synchronous Motors: Transportation and Automation Systems provides a comprehensive treatment of all types of brushless LSMs-their construction, electromagnetic effects, control, and applications. It explains the physics of hard magnetic materials, discusses permanent magnet and superconducting excitation systems, and addresses applications in factory automation and high-speed transportation systems.
LSMs have better performance and higher power density than their induction counterparts, and they can operate with a larger mechanical clearance between their stationary and moving parts. Paying equal attention to the design and the applications of LSMs, Linear Synchronous Motors offers a unique opportunity to master the inner workings of LSMs, discover new research results, and keep abreast of their emerging applications. Electromechanical designers, electrical and mechanical engineers, as well as linear motor enthusiasts will welcome this broad and authoritative work to their reference collections.

Brilliant engineer’s legacy can change your life

You are one of the few lucky patriots who get the chance to hear this…

A brilliant engineer from Lexington, Kentucky developed a one-of-a-kind device
that will start a major scandal and even had administration worry about it.

Build Magnetic Generator

In the near future all green energy technology will replace all current energy grid and
it will all start with this device.

It’s 10 times more powerful than any solar panel.

Grab yours ahead now while it's still out there... and prepare to
learn something amazing!


P.S. I really recommend you stop what you're doing right now and watch
this short presentation.I don't know how much longer they can leave it up.


Linear Synchronous Motors: Transportation and Automation Systems (Electric Power Engineering Series) - Review

'Linear Synchronous Motors' is a worthwhile book on linear motors, with a strong bias toward the transportation and automation fields. There is much useful information here, the writing is reasonably clear and the explanations good.

The book is let down by the terrible quality of the reproduction and lackluster editorial checking. The reproduction resembles poor photocopying in many cases - I could have got a better result printing a PDF of it on an ordinary laser printer. This is annoying, as this book is not cheap. It also contains numerous small spelling errors; inexcusable with modern word processing; doubly so had the editorial checking been up to the mark.

I expect a book of this sort to have first class, clear printing with top-notch quality control and editing in evidence. This isn't up to that standard, which is a shame, as the content merits such care.

A good book, let down by a cheap publisher. Four stars for the technical content alone.
