    Abstract: A cable tie having a strain sensing device incorporated therein. In one embodiment, the strain sensing device is a fiber Bragg grating (FBG), which is preferably molded within the strap. In this case, the cable tie further includes a socket in optical communication with the fiber Bragg grating for coupling of the cable tie to an external light source. In another embodiment, the strain sensing device is a mechanical fuse that activates in the presence of a predetermined amount of strain on the cable tie. The mechanical fuse is preferably disposed on the strap and is made of a fuse material having a mechanical strength lower than a mechanical strength of the material of the strap so that the mechanical fuse will fracture or deform earlier than the material of the underlying strap when both the fuse and the strap experience the same increasing strain.

    Abstract: A method for manufacturing for an electrical machine includes: stacking a plurality of rotor laminations to form an axial rotor segment, the rotor segment formed of at least two laminations, each lamination having a plurality of openings therein, the openings forming a plurality of rotor poles in the rotor segment, each pole having a plurality of passages formed from the openings; rotating the rotor segment to place a first pole of the plurality of poles in an alignment position; injecting into the passages of the first pole a polymer bonded permanent magnet (PBM) material in molten form, wherein the (PBM) material includes magnetic particles suspended within a polymeric matrix; subjecting the first pole to a desired magnetic field to align the magnetic particles into a desired orientation prior to solidification of the (PBM) material; and solidifying the (PBM) material to form permanent magnets within the passages of the first pole.
