Modeling and simulation of a permanent magnetic spherical motor based on solidworks and ADAMS

As the shortcomings of multi-rigid-body mathematical modeling for permanent magnetic spherical motor (PMSM), such as the complexities vary greatly and even lead to considerable deviations from the actual system. A novel physical modeling method and dynamic simulation based on computer software are proposed in this paper. Firstly, the physical model of PMSM rotor was set up in Solidworks. And then, the dynamic model was imported in ADAMS. Dynamic simulation considering the friction and the gravity or not was analyzed respectively. The results offer a reliable approach for the subsequent closed-loop control about PMSM, as well as in-depth study of its dynamic characteristics.
