Production of high purity silica by microfluidic-inclusion fracture using microwave pre-treatment (2018)
Journal Article
Buttress, A., Rodriguez, J., Ure, A., Ferrari, R., Dodds, C., & Kingman, S. (2019). Production of high purity silica by microfluidic-inclusion fracture using microwave pre-treatment. Minerals Engineering, 131, 407-419. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mineng.2018.11.025

© 2018 Demand for high purity silica used in component manufacture is set to outstrip current supply in the near future. As such, alternative processing routes to feed-stock materials suitable for use in lighting and solar cell fabrication are requir...

Conference Proceeding
Garcia, C., Rodriguez, J., Odhano, S., Zanchetta, P., & Davari, S. A. (2018). Modulated Model Predictive Speed Control for PMSM Drives. In 2018 IEEE International Conference on Electrical Systems for Aircraft, Railway, Ship Propulsion and Road Vehicles & International Transportation Electrification Conference (ESARS-ITEC) (1-6). https://doi.org/10.1109/ESARS-ITEC.2018.8607701

Model predictive control (MPC) presents important advantages in the control of the power converter and drives such as, fast dynamic response and capability to include non-linear constrains. These have positioned MPC as a powerful and realistic contro... Read More about Modulated Model Predictive Speed Control for PMSM Drives.
