This book is dedicated to induction machines and treats a wide spectrum of issues such as induction machine applications, principles and topologies, materials, starting and speed control methods, flux harmonics and parasitic torques, skin and saturation effects, design optimization, three-phase induction generators, linear induction motors...

Numerical examples, design case studies, and transient behavior waveforms are presented throughout the chapters to make the book self-sufficient and easy to use by the young or experienced readers from academia and industry.
