High speed electrical machines are replacing existing subsystems in aircraft. Electrical drives need to have high availability and good power density to be considered a viable replacement. To achieve high availability fault tolerance is added to the system design. Power density i

The use of concentrated windings in electrical machines leads to significant rotor losses due to severe space harmonics in the airgap. Metallic retaining sleeves and sintered magnets used in high speed rotor construction have low electrical resistivities, leading to larger associ
