2. 1. On Techno-economic Assessment of a Multi-terminal VSC-HVDC in AC Transmission Systems

   Author : Feng Wang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Transmission Grid.; Loss minimization; AC DC system; Transmission expansion planning; Multi-terminal VSC-HVDC; Cost minimization; Cost-benefit analysis; Electric power system; Optimal power flow;

   Abstract : The Voltage Source Converter based Multi-Terminal high voltage Direct Current transmission system (VSC-MTDC) is currently considered as an attractive technical option for increased transmission capacity and improved controllability and flexibility of an electric power grid, thanks to its unique performance characteristics, and the possibility of using the extruded XLPE cables. In the planning process of embedding a VSC-MTDC system into an ac transmission grid, one must assess the potential values in terms of improved energy efficiency, i. READ MORE

4. 2. On Functional Tolerances in Machine Design

   Author : Rikard Söderberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; loss functions; tolerance chains; quality loss; computer aided tolerancing; manufacturing cost; functional tolerances; quality; tolerances;

   Abstract : This thesis describes a method that allows tolerances on critical dimensions to be assigned with respect to both quality and manufacturing cost. To be able to quantify and include customer needs in the process of assigning tolerances, the concept of functionality loss is used. READ MORE

5. 3. Control of permanent-magnet synchronous machines in automotive applications

   Author : Oskar Wallmark; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electric drive; electric vehicle; fault tolerance; hybrid electric vehicle; inverter; in-wheel motor; loss minimization; permanent-magnet synchronous machine; phase-locked loop; position estimation; sensorless control; vector control;

   Abstract : This thesis deals with the design and analysis of control system structures for electric drives equipped with permanent-magnet synchronous machines (PMSMs) in automotive applications. Sensorless control, meaning vector control without a mechanical rotor position sensor, is considered and a speed and position estimator of phase-locked loop type is analyzed thoroughly. READ MORE

6. 4. Energy Saving vs. Performance: Trade-offs in Optical Networks

   Author : Pawel Wiatr; Paolo Monti; Josep Solé-Pareta; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; energy-efficiency; optical networks; RWA; side-effects; device reliability performance; network performance; operational cost; benefits; loss; Informations- och kommunikationsteknik; Information and Communication Technology;

   Abstract : The energy consumption of communication networks is continuously growing. Many energy saving approaches have been proposed at the device, system, and network level. The most promising way to address this problem is to utilize photonic technologies as much as possible thanks to their low energy consumption per bit performance. READ MORE

7. 5. Power loss minimization in electric cars by wheel force allocation

   Author : Juliette Torinsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; control allocation; electric vehicles; energy efficiency;

   Abstract : The need for lowering the emission levels has never been greater than now. In the vehicle industry, electrification seems to be an irreversible way ahead but user-related challenges such as limited range delay electricity as the primary energy source for personal transportation.
