Inductive power transfer technology is an attractive solution for medium voltage applications by eliminating the need for high voltage cables or wired connections in general. This paper introduces an inductive power transfer system which has multiple indep ...
High power variable speed drives play a major role in many industrial applications. At the moment, these high power loads are supplied by the source (grid/generator) through the state-of-the-art MVAC power distribution network. The voltage levels, in these ...
This research work has been triggered by an industrial project aimed at modelling and manufacturing a small-scale very high speed motor. Very high speed electrical motors offer the main advantage of reducing the size of a system. Indeed, at constant output ...
Dielectric elastomer generators (DEG) are suited for harvesting energy from low frequency and high strain natural sources including wind, wave and human movement. The stack configuration, for instance, in which a number of layers of DE membrane are placed ...
We analyze the direct excitation of wide one-dimensional spectra of nuclei with spin I = 1/2 or 1 in rotating solids submitted to pulse trains in the manner of Delays Alternating with Nutations for Tailored Excitation (DANTE), either with one short rotor-s ...
This paper addresses the design of a new hybrid microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) micromotor. It is a small three-phase axial flux brushless dc (BLDC) motor. The stator is developed following the almost-standard CMOS technology rules used for MEMS manu ...

Multiferroics are materials in which ferroelectric and magnetic e.g., ferromagnetic or antiferromagnetic orders co-exist. Some of these show the magnetoelectric effect which is the coupling between electric and magnetic degrees of freedom leading to induct ...
Arch-shaped axially magnetized bodies tend to appear frequently in electrical machine analysis such as in the overhang parts of the classical radial-flux machines as well as in the main parts of the axial-flux machines. The calculation of the 3-D fields or ...
This paper addresses the design of a new hybrid MEMS micromotor. It gives insights on the choices, which led to the fabrication of a small 3-phases axial flux BLDC motor. The stator is developed following the almost CMOS technology rules used for MEMS manu ...
The use of gas turbines in the power generation industry has been increasing. Their demand represents more than 50% of the world market of thermal power plants. Electric power generators using gas turbines as power sources are connected to the turbines thr ...
