Electromechanical Motion Devices, 3rd Edition, provides an introduction to electric machines and their operational theory. The volume examines modern electromechanical devices alongside applications in hybrid and electric vehicles.

The textbook presents Nikola Tesla's rotating magnetic field as the foundation for reference frame theory. The authors review direct-current machines, induction machines, synchronous machines, and permanent-magnet alternating-current devices.

Prepared for electrical engineering students and practicing engineers in automotive and utility engineering, the text includes illustrative examples, practice problems, and online animations to support study.
