Fluidic actuation enables movement in a wide range of mechanical systems, from simple laboratory devices to more complex industrial machinery. Fluids are used to generate motion of mechanical pieces. The term "fluids" encompasses two types of technologies: ...
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 ...

The intrinsic characteristic of a permanent magnet synchronous motor is defined by its internal dimensions, its material properties, as well as the power supply used in conjunction with the motor. When an extended operating range is desired but the electro ...
A power electronic transformer converter made of cascaded multiple cells with a medium frequency link can replace the bulky traditional transformer in various applications with several advantages, including reduced size and weight, and energy savings. This ...
The global problem of energy supply and the reduction of the carbon footprint can only be solved by a massive replacement of fossil fuels or atomic energy by renewable resources.
As the latter are mostly weather-dependent, they are uncontrollable and unpre ...
In this work, we demonstrate a state-of-the-art high step-up/down dual-active-bridge (DAB) converter designed with GaN transistors, to achieve a high efficiency and large power-density. A quasi-planar matrix transformer with high step-up/down ratio is demo ...
In the wide range of applications for power supplies, the ones dedicated to feeding superconducting magnets occupy a niche. This particular kind of magnets has the intrinsic property of having zero resistance, and is only used in high-end facilities for fu ...
The size and position difference of the windings determine the leakage flux path and give rise to unbalance of the short-circuit impedances, which strongly affects the transient behaviour of the transformer. This work proposes a new approach of modelling w ...
This paper proposes a power converter architecture for the implementation of an ultra-fast charging station for electric vehicles (EVs). The versatile converter topology is based on the concept of the Power Electronic Transformer (PET). For the direct tran ...
