Power Electronics and AC Drives for Traction Applications emphasises power electronics applications in transportation systems, i.e., elevators, ships, railways, electric vehicles, and industrial systems. It is an application-oriented book for the design and development of traction systems accompanied by a description of the core technology. The first four introductory chapters will describe the common knowledge and background required to understand the preceding chapters. After that, each new chapter will be dedicated to one specific application. The proposed chapters are as follows: CHAPTER 1: Introduction, CHAPTER 2: Asynchronous motors based drives, CHAPTER 3: Synchronous machines based drives, CHAPTER 4: Grid connected converters, CHAPTER 5: Elevators, CHAPTER 6: Ships, CHAPTER 7: Railway traction, CHAPTER 8: Electric vehicle, and CHAPTER 9: Industry applications. In each chapter the author will aim to: highlight the most important manufacturers involved with each application; provide a historical account of the technological evolution experienced by each application; differentiate the physics and mechanics of each application; and where possible will analyse a real life example of each application, providing the necessary models and simulation tools, control and model block diagrams, simulation based validations, etc.
