TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a real-time state estimation of the stability of a DC vehicular distribution system with constant power and resistive loads. But, they do not discuss the effect of different types of power loads on the performance of the system.

TL;DR: In this paper, a switched reluctance (SR) machine based starter/alternator (S/A) system for a more electric car is presented, where a novel method in active damping of the engine torque pulsation by controlling the braking torque of the SRG is introduced.
Abstract: This paper addresses various aspects of the switched reluctance (SR) machine based starter/alternator (S/A) system for a more electric car. Inherent simplicity of the machine geometry and control, offering high efficiency and a very long constant power speed ratio along with a rugged structure and safe operation are among the most salient attributes of an SRM drive. In addition, due to the absence of any magnetic source on the rotor, a robust performance in the presence of high temperatures is expected. The authors also introduce a novel method in active damping of the engine torque pulsation by controlling the braking torque of the SRG. This will reduce the engine shaft pulsation thereby enhancing the durability of the system while presenting a quiet engine/generator combination. Furthermore, to enhance the compactness of the system components a novel method for control of the phase current is presented.

TL;DR: In this paper, a lumped-parameter thermal model for a multi-barrier interior PM synchronous machine is presented, which consists of a network of 12 thermal resistances that make it possible to estimate temperatures at 9 critical points inside the machine including the stator end windings, rotor magnets, and the bearings.
Abstract: This paper presents a lumped-parameter thermal model for a multi-barrier interior PM synchronous machine. The model consists of a network of 12 thermal resistances that make it possible to estimate temperatures at 9 critical points inside the machine including the stator end windings, rotor magnets, and the bearings. The details of the model are presented and two machines are analyzed, including a 6 kW 12-pole automotive starter/alternator and a 0.5 kW 4-pole electric water pump machine. The lumped-parameter model results for both machines demonstrate good agreement with results obtained using detailed thermal finite element analysis.
