The MLS has the advantages of inherent overload capability, high force density, no mechanical friction, and low maintenance. Therefore, in this paper, a wave power generation system consists of MLS and a permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) is proposed. And a linear motor is used to simulate the sea wave.

A poorly designed stator insulation can lead to safety issues and stator faults. Approximately, 20–30% of faults in traction machines are stator faults. In order to safeguard a healthy operation of the traction machine, condition monitoring of the traction machine while the electric vehicle is running or at standstill can be applied. This paper summarizes the state of the art of stator insulation systems, presents various root causes leading to stator faults and classifies onboard condition monitoring techniques under a proposed characterization structure, distinguishing between self analysis and traction mode. This characterization aims at providing a broad perspective on stator fault monitoring techniques to automotive engineers and researchers, focusing on permanent magnet synchronous machines.","PeriodicalId":187719,"journal":{"name":"IECON 2019 - 45th Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121670914","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, in low-power applications, most of the existing wireless chargers would employ redundant power conversion and isolation stages in order to be compatible with the wire-connected chargers, which leads to low overall charging efficiency. This paper proposes a novel wireless fast charger by using a two-stage configuration. An unregulated IPT stage can not only offer galvanic isolation but also provide high step-down conversion ratio, and it works like a transformer-based isolated converter. Then the whole charger only needs one more regulation stage to meet the output requirement. This paper focus on the IPT stage with high-input voltage and low-output voltage. The LCC-C compensation is selected for the voltage step-down purpose. In the analysis, the influence of layout size, resonance frequency, and the power level are discussed, based on which the circuit parameters are optimally designed. Finally, a 2MHz 25W IPT stage is used as an example to achieve 120V /12V conversion. The measured peak efficiency is 82 %, which is 9 % higher than the stage of the art product (5W, 5V/5V conversion).","PeriodicalId":187719,"journal":{"name":"IECON 2019 - 45th Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121802809","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the first method, a relay feedback test is used to obtain ultimate gain and period measurements experimentally. PI and PID controllers are then tuned according to the classic Ziegler-Nichols formulae. In the second and third method, a converter model is developed based on experimental identification and analytical derivation, respectively. PI and PID controllers are then designed through optimization of an integral performance criterion applied to the simulated step response. Experimental tests show that all three approaches to controller tuning provide comparable and acceptable results, but the simplicity of the approach based on the relay feedback test makes it a viable alternative to offline-tuned optimal controllers given the ability of the former to retune the controller to adapt to system changes. Results also suggest that with some improvements to the test and tuning rules, a well-tuned controller may be produced with reasonable computational effort in the auto-tuning schema.","PeriodicalId":187719,"journal":{"name":"IECON 2019 - 45th Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126497337","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The feedforward action is designed to account for the effects of the reference signal, considered as known disturbance, on the tracking error dynamics. The disturbance-observer-based control law is proposed to deal with the modeling uncertainties as well as unknown disturbances. Using the concepts of $V$-stability and H∞ control, the feedback component is designed to satisfy some predefined closed-loop specifications, aiming to improve the tracking performance. The effectiveness of the new tracking control method is demonstrated with a multibody model of a 2-DoF SCARA robot manipulator.

The bottom of the seat is a spherical section, supported and driven by three omnidirectional wheels. An aluminum bar flanked with dumbbells is connected to the wheelchair through a universal joint as the test subject. The motion model is decoupled into two 2-D inverted pendulum models in the vertical plane and one rotation model in the horizontal plane. Two linear state feedback controllers based on the linear quadratic regulator method are used to stabilize the test subject in the vertical plane.
