Period-1 Motions and Bifurcations of a 3D Brushless DC Motor System with Voltage Disturbance.

In this paper, the nonlinear dynamic system of a brushless DC motor with voltage disturbance is studied analytically via a generalized harmonic balance method. A truncated Fourier series with time-varying coefficients is utilized to represent the analytical variations of nonlinear currents and voltages within this dynamic system. Bifurcations of periodic currents and voltages are obtained, and their stability is discussed through eigenvalue analysis. The frequency–amplitude characteristics of periodic currents and voltages exhibit complexity in the frequency domain. Comparative illustrations are provided to contrast the analytical solutions with numerical outcomes for periodic currents and voltages. These analytical findings can be effectively employed for controlling the brushless DC motors experiencing voltage disturbances. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
