Electrical Motor Book for Automotive Robots?

AI Thread Summary
Recommendations for books on electrical motors that focus on calculating motor power and ratings for automotive robots are sought. The discussion emphasizes the need for clear explanations and practical examples, particularly for determining the power required to lift a robot arm. A key point mentioned is that power can be calculated as torque multiplied by RPM, with necessary unit conversions. Participants are encouraged to share specific titles that meet these criteria. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding motor specifications for effective robotic design.

Hi all,

Can anyone recommend a book on electrical motors that clearly explains and has plenty of examples on how to calculate the required motor power/rating for a automotive robot.

I'm trying to work out the required power to lift a robot arm, then somehow find the correct electric motor.

Hope this makes sense.

Yours

The power is the torque times the RPM, after converting the appropriate units.

Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'

I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...

Thread 'EMF (Electromagnetic Field) & EHS (Electromagnetic Hyper Sensitivity)'

Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
