In the last years, static power converters have become widely used in various applications. They can be found in domestic applications, railways, urban and ship transport, and even in several industrial systems. Some of these applications require a high or ...
This paper proposes a linear two-port model for an N-stage modified-Greinacher full-wave rectifier. It predicts the overall conversion efficiency at Iow power levels where the diodes are operating near their threshold voltage. The output electrical behavio ...
In this paper, we present new dynamic features derived from the modulation spectrum of the cepstral traje ctories of the speech signal. Cepstral trajectories are projected over the basis of sines and cosines yie lding the cepstral modulation frequency resp ...
This paper highlights some effects of an asymmetrical design on three phase multilevel inverters from a supply network point of view. The investigated topology is based on a series connection of single phase inverters (partial cell) in each phase. Each par ...
In this paper, a high quality single-phase rectifier with reduced ripple of the input current is proposed. the chosen solution has the main advantage of reducing cither the current ripple or the operating switching frequency, by a compensation effect of tw ...
The paper presents a new method for the automatic monitoring of bridges deformations. Based on the use of electronic high precision inclinometers, this method permits to accurately reconstruct the deflected shape of the bridge and to follow its long-term e ...

Three 30 kV/10 mA solid state pulsed modulators have been delivered to the CRPP in Lausanne, by the company JEMA. Each modulator supplies the anode grid of a triode type gyrotron, used for heating purpose at the third harmonic in the TCV Tokamak. The main ...
This paper deals with a software package for the numerical analysis in transient and steady-state modes of power electrical networks or variable speed drives with arbitrary topologies. The package is composed of a series of units, each representing a speci ...
We propose a simple quantum structure which exhibits resonant tunneling under one bias and simple tunneling under the opposite one, thus acting as a rectifier. The diode consists of a single laterally-indented barrier. Due to its particular conduction-band ...
