The drawbacks of conventional Modular Multilevel Converters (MMC) are described in terms of short-circuits. The configuration of MMC-transformer-MMC proves to handle short-circuits at the input and output without the need for additional DC or AC circuit br ...
For the simulation of electrical power systems (adjustable speed drives, wind farms, complete grids, etc.) the Kirchhoff's model is used. Each of the components of this model (transmission line, circuit breaker, electrical machines, etc.) is represented by ...
This paper presents a new hybrid circuit breaker topology based on the use of serial and parallel semiconductors that allows to increase the supply voltage and default current with no arc, and to benefit from a current limitation function. A concrete marin ...
Air-magnetic circuit breakers are widely used for short-circuit protection in dc electric railways or industrial plants. The well-known drawbacks of these breakers are mainly a slow breaking action, a short lifetime, and high maintenance costs due to the d ...

The appraisal of the response of distribution networks to the excitation of lightning electro magnetic pulse (LEMP) requires the availability of accurate models of LEMP-illuminated lines. These models should be able to take into account the presence of shi ...
This paper deals with the calculation of lightning-induced overvoltages on medium-voltage (MV) and low-voltage (LV) distribution networks taking into account the presence of MV-LV distribution transformers and, in particular, the surge transfer through the ...
In this paper, we investigate the effect of periodically-grounded shielding wires and surge arresters on the attenuation of lightning-induced voltages. We discuss the adequacy of the commonly made simplification of assuming the shielding wire at ground pot ...
We investigate amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) thin film solar cells in the n-i-p or substrate configuration that allows the use of nontransparent and flexible substrates such as metal or plastic foils such as polyethylene- naphtalate (PEN). A substrate texture ...
We present a new electronic device – the single-electron bipolar avalanche transistor (SEBAT) – which allows for the detection of single charges with a bandwidth typically above 1 GHz, exceeding by far the bandwidth of other room-temperature single-electro ...
