Since many years the EPFL Laboratory of Electrical Machines develops SIMSEN, a numerical software package for the simulation of electrical power systems and adjustable speed drives, in transient and steady-state conditions, having an arbitrary topology. SI ...
Diesel - electric traction is a well established technology in railways systems, mainly for lines with a low traffic potential. In those conditions, the choice of a diesel powered locomotive is due to the reduced costs compared to the infrastructure cost o ...
The reliability of new overhead electric and telecommunication lines depends principally on the quality of their support structures. These structures are generally made of wood, metal or concrete. The complexity of a natural substance such as wood requires ...
The present paper addresses the correlation between mechanical damage and the change in electrical resistance of CFRP under tensile loading. A linear relation between the strain and the electrical resistance of single carbon fibers was obtained experimenta ...

An electrolytic cell assembly, e.g. for use in solar panels, is formed by placing coated metal wires between the conducting layers of two conducting glasses, resp. A pressure force is applied to press the metal wires between the conducting layers and to br ...

An optimization tool to identify optimum structure/parameters of hybrid electric vehicles (hereafter abbreviated as HEV) is proposed, which can take account of various criteria regarding environmental impacts, cost minimization, or minimum fuel consumption ...
