FEM approach for diagnosis of induction machines' non-adjacent broken rotor bars by short-time Fourier transform spectrogram (2019)
Journal Article
Panagiotou, P., Arvanitakis, I., Lophitis, N., Antonino-Daviu, {. A., & Gyftakis, {. N. (2019). FEM approach for diagnosis of induction machines' non-adjacent broken rotor bars by short-time Fourier transform spectrogram. Journal of Engineering, 2019(17), 4566--4570. https://doi.org/10.1049/joe.2018.8240

Rotor electrical faults are an issue frequently encountered when applying condition monitoring and fault diagnosis on induction machines. The detection via the analysis of the stator current becomes challenging when the rotor cage suffers from multip...

Vector control strategies to enable equal frequency operation of the modular multilevel matrix converter (2019)
Journal Article
Diaz, M., Espinosa, M., Rojas, F., Wheeler, P., & Cardenas, R. (2019). Vector control strategies to enable equal frequency operation of the modular multilevel matrix converter. Journal of Engineering, 2019(17), 4214-4219. https://doi.org/10.1049/joe.2018.8028

The modular multilevel matrix converter (M3C) is a power converter topology for ac to ac conversion that is suitable for high-power applications. The control of this converter is complex, particularly if ac system frequencies are similar. In these ca...
