1 Introduction A drive system requires energy for acceleration or constant movement that must be supplied to the system. During deceleration, a motor acts as a generator . A considerable por- tion of the kinetic energy is re-generated as electrical energy . Since electrical energy can only be stored to a limited extent in a sin- gle drive, a drive [...]
