Bursting Oscillations and Sliding Motion in Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor Systems with Friction Factor.

The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the qualitative effects of external excitation and friction factor on the response of permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) system. Three different modes of bursting oscillations are found. In particular, the introduction of friction function changes the governing equations from a smooth type to a nonsmooth (Filippov) type in which the special sliding motion is observed. The mechanism, attractor structure, vector field structure, and analytic bifurcation conditions of bursting oscillation and sliding motion are discussed in detail. The validity of theoretical results obtained is verified by numerical simulations and analysis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
