Electric Machinery Fundamentals continues to be a best-selling machinery text due to its accessible, student-friendly coverage of the important topics in the field.

In the fifth edition, the use of MATLAB® continues to be incorporated in examples and problems, where applicable. The targeted and thought-provoking problems you’ve come to appreciate have been retained in this edition.

Chapman continues to share his up-to-date knowledge and experiences in the field in an engaging and understandable style.

Key Features of the Fifth Edition:
– Learning objectives have been added to the beginning of each chapter to enhance student learning.
– Flexible topic coverage allows either ac or dc material to be covered first.
– A wealth of end-of-chapter problems are included, many of them new or revised. These revisions include new synchronous machine and induction motor problems based on the data sheets of real machines.
– MATLAB coverage is integrated into problems and examples.
– Updated coverage of topics appears throughout the text, including increased coverage of new trends in the industry, such as the use of induction generators for cell phone towers.

Electric Machinery Fundamentals is accompanied by a website found at www.mhhe.com/chapman, which provides solutions for instructors, as well as source code, MATLAB tools, a supplement on Introduction to Power Electronics, and more.

Stephen J. Chapman received a B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Louisiana State University (1975) and an M.S.E. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Central Florida (1979), and pursued further graduate studies at Rice University.
From 1975 to 1980, he served as an officer in the U.S. Navy, assigned to teach electrical engineering at the U.S. Naval Nuclear Power School in Orlando, Florida. From 1980 to 1982, he was affiliated with the University of Houston, where he ran the power systems program in the College of Technology.
From 1982 to 1988 and from 1991 to 1995, he served as a member of the technical staff of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Lincoln Laboratory, both at the main facility in Lexington, Massachusetts, and at the field site on Kwajalein Atoll in the Republic of the Marshall Islands. While there, he did research in radar signal processing systems. He ultimately became the leader of four large operational range instrumentation radars at the Kwajalein field site (TRADEX, ALTAIR, ALCOR, and MMW).
From 1988 to 1991, Mr. Chapman was a research engineer for Shell Devel-opment Company in Houston, Texas, where he did seismic signal processing re-search. He was also affiliated with the University of Houston, where he continued to teach on a part-time basis.
Mr. Chapman is currently manager of systems modeling and operational analysis for BAE Systems Australia, in Melbourne.
Mr. Chapman is a senior member of the Institute of Electrical and Elec-tronic Engineers (and several of its component societies). He is also a member of Engineers Australia.
