Dynamical electromechanical analysis of pole-piece rotors in pseudo direct-drive machines: Taking the next step towards tomorrow’s wind turbines

Wind energy has shown to be a great renewable energy source, with a possible penetration of 20 % by 2040. In order to increase its competitiveness with fossil fuels, the LCOE should decrease further than it already has. Increasing the power rating of wind turbines has proven to be an effective way to achieve this. However, this results in...
