Horizon Selection in Physics-Enhanced Neural ODEs: Theoretical Insights and Flux Linkage Application

The integration horizon during the training plays a critical role in Physics-Enhanced Neural Ordinary Differential Equations. We draw conclusions about horizon extension in the training of Neural Ordinary Differential Equations based on classical nonlinear system identification of input-output models. In light of this insight, we propose a framework that exploits longer horizons to reduce bias in physical parameter estimates, extracts residual information from data, and acts as a regularizer improving generalization. In the learning of a model for permanent magnet synchronous machine, the method is used to jointly estimate the flux map and the resistance.

Joint identification of permanent magnet synchronous machine and inverter

In electric drive modeling, identifying the magnetic flux maps is essential for predicting accurately the torque, parameterizing a controller for tracking the torque or creating a simulation model. However, the voltage output by the controller (commanded voltage) is usually disturbed by non-linearity of the inverter, which needs to be taken into account. This paper presents a novel approach to enhance the offline flux identification from commanded voltage inputs, circumventing the need for prior identification of inverter parameters. In the dq reference frame, the flux maps are represented as static relationships between dq fluxes and dq currents. We utilize a tensor product spline model to accurately capture saturation and cross-saturation effects. The effects of the voltage disturbance on the estimated flux maps are not negligible. It is demonstrated that a joint identification of the flux maps and a simple model of the inverter can highly improve the flux model. The method is validated on FEM simulation and test-bench data.

Adaptive Time-Domain Harmonic Control for Noise-Vibration-Harshness Reduction of Electric Drives

Reducing Noise, Vibration, and Harshness (NVH) in electric drives is crucial for applications such as electric vehicle drivetrains and heat-pump compressors, where strict NVH requirements directly affect user satisfaction and component longevity. This work presents the integration of an adaptive time-domain harmonic controller into an existing electric-drive control loop to attenuate harmonic disturbances. Three control structures are proposed and analyzed, along with a modified parameter-estimation scheme that reduces computational effort while preserving estimation accuracy, making the method suitable for embedded real-time implementation. To cope with fast operating-point changes, a delta-learning approach combines adaptive control with a lookup-table-based feedforward estimator, ensuring fast convergence and robustness. The proposed controller architectures are validated through simulation and testbench experiments on a permanent-magnet synchronous machine drive, demonstrating substantial NVH reductions across operating conditions. The results confirm that time-domain adaptive harmonic control offers a practical and theoretically grounded solution for real-time NVH mitigation in electric drives.
