Journal Article
Spargo, C. M., Mecrow, B. C., & Widmer, J. D. (2014). A Seminumerical Finite-Element Postprocessing Torque Ripple Analysis Technique for Synchronous Electric Machines Utilizing the Air-Gap Maxwell Stress Tensor. IEEE Transactions on Magnetics, 50(5), Article 7026909. https://doi.org/10.1109/tmag.2013.2295547

A novel method to calculate the harmonic torque components in synchronous machines is presented. Harmonic torque components create a torque ripple, which is undesirable in many applications. This torque ripple is a major cause of acoustic noise and v...
