Electric Machines
MIT OpenCourseWare offers this advanced course on the principles and analysis of electromechanical systems. Students develop analytical techniques for predicting how electric machines and their driving systems interact, and learn to design major classes of machines such as induction, synchronous, and DC motors and generators. Problem sets tie electromechanical phenomena to examples drawn from current research, pushing beyond textbook cases into applied design questions. Materials include lecture notes, assignments, and exams typical of MIT's OpenCourseWare offerings, allowing self-study of graduate-level electromechanics without enrollment. The course assumes prior exposure to electromagnetics and circuit theory, and builds toward independent analysis of coupled electrical and mechanical systems. No certificate is offered, but the full set of course materials is free to access and download under MIT's open license.
