The paper presents generator design considerations to meet the demands of the intended application. In addition, the paper concentrates on novel aspects of generator modelling using electromagnetic finite element analysis, which were adopted to fully characterise the generator performance at the development stage, hence alleviating the need for prototyping, the cost of which was unacceptable for this application.}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/fea-modelling-novel-tubular-linear-generator/}, edition = {Linear Drives for Industrial Applications}, }
