This is our third one day online course for anyone starting out in motor design. If you’re a new graduate, an experienced ICE engine designer starting work on electric vehicles, or an old hand looking for a refresher, this course will give you the basics. Leading cross-discipline experts from many different companies will teach the basics and speak from their own experiences gained over many years.

Course content

  • Basics in magnetics, magnetic measurements, and magnetising

  • Overview on magnetic materials, both hard and soft magnetic materials

  • General principles of electrical machines and control

  • Modelling electrical machines

NB The course is generously supported by the speakers’ organisations; as such they will be using their own tools and processes as appropriate. Other tools and consultancies are available, but we are grateful to the speakers for their support.

Course Delivery

The course will be delivered over one day on Zoom. A link will be provided once you have registered for the course.
