Multi-level high-voltage power supply for dea application

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Morgan Almanza, Lucas Pniak, Lucas Depreux

In order to reap the benefits of Dielectric Elastomer Actuator (DEA) high energy density, the electronics powering the actuator should be as small as possible. Knowing that only a small fraction of the energy delivered to DEAs is effectively converted into ...

Transcutaneous Wireless Power & Data Transfer for Medical Applications

The Center for Artificial Muscle (CAM) is in the process of designing a new type of Vascular Assist Device (VAD) that uses the mechanical and electrical properties of Dielectric Elastomer Actuators (DEAs). The main challenges with these actuators are that ...

An Energy Efficient Power Converter for Zero Power Wearable Devices

Milad Ataei Ashtiani

Early diagnosis of Alzheimer's and epilepsy requires monitoring a subject's development of symptoms through electroencephalography (EEG) signals over long periods. Wearable devices enable convenient monitoring of biosignals, unlike complex and costly hospi ...

Following an unintended disconnection of a synchronous generator (SG) from the power system, what is also known as a loss of generation (LoG), it is not trivial to precisely estimate the post-event power system's inertia and the LoG size. One of reasons fo ...

Medium Voltage DC-DC Converter for Power Collection Links

Gina Kristin Steinke

Nowadays electrical energy generation is an important topic discussed in the society. Since technologies like wind or solar energy generation are most of the time placed far away from the city centres one point to focus on is the transmission of the energy ...

Gas Turbine: Optimization of Energy Production and High Efficiency by Using Power Electronics

Alfred Rufer, Aziza Benaboud

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 ...

Reachability-based Control Synthesis for Power System Stability

Maryam Kamgarpour

We present a nonlinear reachability framework for control of power system transients. The power system consists of synchronous generators, coupled by transmission lines and controlled HVDC links. The approach consists of characterisation of the region of a ...

Experimental Implementation of Frequency Regulation Service Using Commercial Buildings

Colin Neil Jones, Ioannis Lymperopoulos, Tomasz Tadeusz Gorecki, Faran Ahmed Qureshi, Luca Fabietti, Altug Bitlislioglu

Frequency control reserves are a fundamental mechanism in the current electric power system to preserve the balance between demand and generation of active power at all times. The traditional approach is to exploit conventional power plants for frequency r ...

Optimal voltage control processes in active distribution networks

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Mario Paolone, Dan-Cristian Tomozei, Konstantina Christakou

Typical optimal controls of power systems, such as scheduling of generators, voltage control, losses reduction, have been so far commonly investigated in the domain of high-voltage transmission networks. However, during the past years, the increased connec ...
