A major change in the electrical transmission and distribution system is taking place in Europe at the moment. The shift from a centralised energy production to a distributed generation profoundly changes the behaviour of the grid. Environmental or social ...
Increasing concerns regarding global warming caused by greenhouse gases, which are mainly generated by conventional energy resources, e.g., fossil fuels, have created significant interest for the research and development in the field of renewable energies. ...
The paper presents a set of experimental investigations related to the study of the dynamic behavior of supercapacitors. The experimentally-inferred results are then used as inputs for an improved version of one of the most common supercapacitor RC-circuit ...
This paper presents a modular control platform which is tailored for teaching and research applications. It aims at being entirely “student-proof” and features software-independent safety mechanisms, extensive signal conditioning and easy-to-use interfaces ...
This work is part of the innovative "Active Generator" (AG) project. AG is a concept that suggests a new arrangement of the turbine-generator line of a high power utility (a few hundred of MW) in order to de-synchronize the rotation speed of the turbine-ge ...
This paper presents an eigenvalues analysis method for an induction machine model based on phase variables a, b, c. This approach is validated by comparison with ad, q approach and applied to a variable speed pump-turbine unit using a simplified model of t ...
This paper presents a study on the power conditioning features of hybrid powertrain, especially regarding diesel-electric locomotives. Equipped with an embarked energy buffer for diesel generator support and utility grid interface, such a locomotive can be ...
With the advance in microelectronics and microsystems, better instruments in every domain are designed and built. For many years, scientists have tried to understand nature, and engineers to mimic the perfect design. One example of this is the human knee, ...
This paper proposes a new experimental investigation of the ageing mechanisms of super capacitors. Starting from the main ageing mechanisms of these devices reported in the literature, the paper proposes a suitably developed procedure aimed at evaluating t ...
Inductive Coupled Power Transfer (ICPT) is a widely used technique to transfer electrical power from a power supply to one or more load(s) without any physical link. Even with large airgaps between primary and secondary coils, a very high power transfer ef ...
