Electromagnetic Actuator Laboratory
Developing motor technology that is friendly to the earth and people
Our laboratory is conducting research to improve the performance of conventional motors as well as developing new motors, besides conducting research on how to control them. As it has been over 100 years since the invention of motor, it seems like an old technology, but motors are indispensable in supporting modern lives. Therefore, the motor, while old, is still a new technology because of the advancements being made to it even today.
This lab is for this SDG activity:
STUDY FIELDS
- Electrical engineering
FOR SOCIETY
Electric vehicles and trains are motor driven. Moreover, motors are used in many conventional automobiles, wrist watches and mobile phones. This indicates that people are near motor all the time.
RESEARCH THEMES
- Research on technologies that will control motors for electric vehicles
- Research on the development of new linear motors and their control methods
- Research on making motor highly efficient
