This article deals with a methodology for a computer-aided design of electromechanical actuators from the preliminary design of components to the detail design of the electrical motor. The developed library of components for the simulation takes advantage of the non-causal and object oriented characteristics of the Modelica language. The capabilities of the Modelica language and the LMS.Imagine.Lab AMESim or Dymola Platforms are strongly used in order to build a fully integrated process to design and size the different component of the final actuator. The proposed approach is illustrated with the sizing of a flight control actuator.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
