description While extensive research has addressed electromechanical systems interacting with power electronic converters, most studies lack a unified modeling framework that simultaneously captures converter switching behavior, nonlinear dynamics, and linearized control-oriented representations. In particular, the dynamic interaction between two-level full-bridge converters and angular-motion electromechanical switching devices (EMDs) is often simplified or abstracted, thereby limiting control system design and frequency-domain analysis. This work presents a comprehensive dynamic modeling methodology for an angular-motion EMD driven by a full-bridge dc-dc converter. The modeling framework includes (i) a detailed nonlinear switching model, (ii) an averaged nonlinear model suitable for control design, and (iii) a small-signal linearized model for deriving transfer functions and evaluating system stability. The proposed models are rigorously validated through time-domain simulations and Bode frequency analysis, confirming both theoretical equilibrium points and dynamic characteristics such as resonant frequencies and phase margins. The results demonstrate strong consistency across the modeling hierarchy and reveal critical features—such as ripple-induced resonance and low-frequency coupling—that are essential for robust controller design. This framework established a foundational tool for advancing the control and optimization of electromechanical switching systems in high-performance applications.
