More electric aircraft (MEA) architectures consist of several subsystems, which must all comply with the settled safety requirements of aerospace applications. Thus, achieving reliability and fault-tolerance represents the main cornerstone when classifying different solutions. Hybrid electric aircra...

This article presents a harmonic-domain single-input single-output (SISO) equivalent modeling technique for the impedance modeling and stability analysis of a single-phase grid-connected voltage-source converter (VSC). The basis is a conversion technique that transforms a harmonic transfer function ...

Recent developments toward selfdriving cars combined with technology for wireless inductive power transfer can enable electric vehicles that are fully autonomous with respect to operation and energy requirements. Furthermore, technology for wireless opportunity charging and dynamic on-road inductive...

Eigenvalue-based analysis of small-signal dynamics in High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) transmission systems requires cable models that are compatible with a state-space representation. While distributed parameter models accounting for frequency-dependent effects are inherently incompatible with a ...

Safety-critical power conversion systems play a major role in the paradigm shift towards more electric aircraft (MEA) architectures. This paper reviews the electrical machines and their power electronic systems that are currently competing in the application of integrated starter-generators (S/Gs) i...

This paper presents a comparative eigenvalue analysis of the stability characteristics and small signal dynamics of four different control strategies for Synchronous Machine Emulation (SME) by power electronic converters, considering a Synchronous Machine (SM) as the benchmark system. The four SME t...

This paper presents an experimental performance evaluation of different control strategies for providing virtual inertia from power electronic converters. The evaluation is based on a laboratory-scale prototype of a point-to-point HVDC transmission system with Modular Multilevel Converters (MMCs). O...

This paper presents a technique for damping of oscillations in ac grids by control of VSC-HVDC links. The effect of the proposed controller is equivalent to a mechanical friction between two asynchronous networks (modelled as rotating masses) interconnected by the HVDC link. Therefore, the dynamics ...

This paper presents a distributed converter interface for the road-side infrastructure of dynamic inductive power transfer (IPT) systems for roadway-powered electric vehicles (RPEV). The proposed system configuration is based on a modular multilevel topology, with each individual module supplying po...
