Optimising the structure of a cascaded modular battery system for enhancing the performance of battery packs (2019)
Journal Article

The overall performance of battery packs may be affected by imbalances between the series connected cells which is more likely in packs with high number of cells needed to provide a high voltage as needed for example in electric vehicles. In this cas... Read More about Optimising the structure of a cascaded modular battery system for enhancing the performance of battery packs.

Design and evaluation of an energy storage system for helicopters (2019)
Journal Article

This paper presents the design and evaluation of an energy storage system (ESS) for helicopters with the aim to recover the kinetic energy in the rotor available after landing and to be able to control the 270 V DC bus voltage during load disturbance...

Sizing guidelines for grid-connected decentralised energy storage systems: single house application (2019)
Journal Article

Nowadays, the existing hierarchical, centrally controlled power grid faces new challenges due to the increase penetration of renewable sources, the need of implementing demand-side management and the 2020 and 2050 environmental targets. A promising c... Read More about Sizing guidelines for grid-connected decentralised energy storage systems: single house application.

New modulation scheme for bidirectional qZS modular multi-level converters (2019)
Journal Article

This study proposes a dedicated modulation scheme for a bidirectional quasi-Z-source (qZS) modular multi-level converter. The operation principle and a suitable pulse-width modulation method are proposed. The relation between the modulation index and...
