Recently, multilevel applications have know n many improvements. Initially introduced to answer the problem of the series-connection of components in medium voltage applications, multilevel topologies have now to serve new purposes. Recent multilevel techn ...
The paper presents the general scheme and the relevant implementation of a Maximum Efficiency Point Tracking (MEPT) system for a Small Hydro Power (SHP) plant equipped with a variable-speed generator. This last consists of a Doubly Fed Induction Generator ...
The asymmetrical multilevel inverters allow to obtain a high resolution together with a good efficiency thanks to the switch hybridization. Nevertheless, the supplies of the cells must be insulated one from each other, which increases the converter complex ...
New applications in embedded systems are becoming Increasingly dynamic. In addition to increased dynamism, they have massive data storage needs. Therefore, they rely heavily on dynamic, run-time memory allocation. The design and configuration of a dynamic ...
Microcrystalline growth regimes and solar cells obtained in different pressure and silane depletion conditions are studied in a large area KAI-S plasma reactor. The microcrystalline material quality is systematically investigated by Fourier Transform Photo ...
G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the most abundant class of proteins in the cell body. Such receptors are of major interest as potential therapeutic targets. Downscaling and parallelization of bioanalytics opens novel routes to rapidly screen and id ...
An artificial neural network has been proved to be a sufficient tool for modelling fatigue life of multidirectional composite laminates made of GFRP composite materials and tested under constant amplitude loading patterns. Modelling efficiency of the netwo ...
Rankine cycles for low to medium power and low temperature heat using water as working fluid, were almost written off. The main arguments speaking against them are reviewed in this paper and the conceptual design of the equipment entirely revisited. An adv ...
This paper investigates the stability of dilution series of pin and nip microcrystalline silicon solar cells under low-energy proton irradiation (E = 405 keV). Variation of electrical parameters, defect-related absorption and Urbach parameter are investiga ...
Gossip algorithms have recently received significant attention, mainly because they constitute simple and robust algorithms for distributed information processing over networks. However for many topologies that are realistic for wireless ad-hoc and sensor ...
