Electric Motors and Drives: Fundamentals, Types and Applications

For professional reasons I needed to get
a clear overview on the fundamentals of electric motors and their
drives, without delving into details. This book completely satisfied my
requests. More intensively every day software is involved in the
design of drives for electric motors. DSP and microcontrollers are the
cores of this drives. Software engineers don’t need to know the
details of functionality of the motors therefore can get a benefit
from reading this book in order to understand why some algorithms are
implemented in the programs they develop. I found very interesting the
explicit intention to explain the fundamentals of electric motors in a
non quantitative way: in complicated formulas the essence of reality
gets lost. Now, after reading this book, I can say that I have
understood how the electric motors work.
