The purpose of this semester project is to move in 3D space the gripper to grab an object, move it and release it. To do so a cartesian 3D printer will be used to move the gripper. Some modifications needs to be done in order to install the gripper at the ...
The aim of this thesis is to investigate the mechanical and thermal behaviour of HTS coated conductor cables for EUROfusion DEMO magnets.One of the issue in large HTS magnets is the safety against a quench. A quench is a sudden thermal runway in which the ...
To best utilize power converters, a sound understanding of the relationship between the circuit topology and the power-semiconductor-device characteristics is required. This is especially important in high-frequency switching, where device parasitics start ...
The latest developments in dc transformer technology are enabling larger and more complex dc power distribution systems. However, the literature is scarce regarding the investigation and quantification of its impact on the dc grid. Therefore, this paper an ...
In this paper, we present an exact (i.e. non-approximated) and linear measurement model for hybrid AC/DC micro-grids for recursive state estimation (SE). More specifically, an exact linear model of a voltage source converter (VSC) is proposed. It relies on ...
GaN metal-oxide-semiconductor high electron mobility transistors (MOS)HEMTs) offer outstanding properties for next-generation power electronics devices. The high conductivity, high voltage blocking capability, high operation frequency, and device-level int ...
The concept of a multi-source inverter (MSI) based on NPC topology was recently introduced for hybrid-electric powertrains to connect several dc sources to the traction load in a single conversion stage without magnetics. This work proposes a new modulatio ...
Despite their high sensitivity and their suitability for miniaturization, biosensors are still limited for clinical applications due to the lack of reproducibility and specificity of their detection performance. The design and preparation of sensing surfac ...
This paper proposes a Linear Parameter-Varying loop-shaping controller for a power-synchronized grid-following inverter (PSGFLI). This control strategy regulates the inverter output active and reactive power at the terminal instead of the point of connecti ...
This project aims at designing, fabricating and characterising balanceable coupled NEMS resonators, in order to verify a theoretical model. In the field of sensing, coupled NEMS resonators benefit from an immensely increased sensitivity towards changes in ...
