Practical Online Condition Monitoring of DC-Link Capacitors in Modular Multilevel Converters: A Comparative Approach

open access: yesIEEE Open Journal of Power Electronics
This article presents a novel scheme for condition monitoring of dc-link capacitors in modular multilevel converters (MMCs). The proposed solution uses estimated capacitance values of the dc-link capacitors for indicating their state-of-health (SoH ...

Water Permeates and Plasticizes Amorphous Carbon Dots: Unraveling the Inner Accessibility of the Nanoparticles by Glass Transition Studies

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The water permeability of amorphous carbon dots (CDs) is demonstrated by investigating their plasticization. Novel polyamide‐based and amorphous nanoparticles are synthesized by controlling their inner packing density. Water plasticization is evidenced by the decrease of the CDs glass transition temperature with increasing the hydration degree.

Electric vehicle possibilities using low power and light weight range extenders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Electric cars have the disadvantage of a limited range, and drivers may experience a range anxiety. This range anxiety can be solved by adding a range extender. But, the range extender should be light so as not to significantly increase the weight of the

Opportunities of Semiconducting Oxide Nanostructures as Advanced Luminescent Materials in Photonics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The review discusses the challenges of wide and ultrawide bandgap semiconducting oxides as a suitable material platform for photonics. They offer great versatility in terms of tuning microstructure, native defects, doping, anisotropy, and micro‐ and nano‐structuring. The review focuses on their light emission, light‐confinement in optical cavities, and

Self‐Assembled Inorganic Nanomembrane Tubes: Rolled‐Up Piezoelectrics for Microacoustic Wave‐Based Actuators and Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates a self‐assembly process to generate free‐standing piezoelectric nanomembranes, forming ultracompact microtubular acoustic wave sensors and actuators. The miniaturized 3D piezoelectric platform reported in this work can be applied in telecommunication, energy harvesting, and acoustofluidics. Moreover, the 3D self‐assembly can add

A Method for Suppressing DC-Link Ripples of Multilevel Packed U-Cell Inverter by Compensate-Control Combination

open access: yesIEEE Access
In order to suppress the influence of the DC-link ripples in the multilevel inverters, a compensate-control combination method for the Packed U-cell (PUC) multilevel inverter to suppress DC-link ripples is proposed in this paper.

Using transfer ratio to evaluate EMC design of adjustable speed drive systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
This paper proposes a way to evaluate the conducted electromagnetic compatibility performance of variable speed drive systems. It is considered that the measured noise level is determined by two factors, the level of the noise source and the conversion ...

POM‐Based Water Splitting Catalyst Under Acid Conditions Driven by Its Assembly on Carbon Nanotubes

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A newly‐engineered POM‐based electrocatalyst incorporating non‐innocent counter cations exhibits fast kinetics for either the OER or HER under strongly acidic conditions (1 m H2SO4), depending on whether it is assembled on carbon nanotubes (1@CNT) or physically mixed with them (1/CNT). In water‐splitting tests using a two‐electrode setup, these systems

Active voltage damping method with negative DC link current feedback in electric and hybrid electric transmissions

open access: yesНаучно-технический вестник информационных технологий, механики и оптики
Electric and hybrid electric transmissions in traction drive have a limited capacity power source. Since the traction drive operates in the torque source mode, the DC link voltage becomes unstable and goes into oscillatory mode.

Hybrid HVDC for supply of power to offshore oil platforms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
A HVDC hybrid system, comprising a line commutated thyristor HVDC converter and a STATCOM, is proposed in this paper for supplying power to offshore oil platforms that do not have their own generation. The proposed system combines the robust performance,
