  2. 2. Nonaxisymmetric experimental modal analysis and control of resistive wall MHD in RFPs : System identification and feedback control for the reversed-field pinch

    Author : K Erik J Olofsson; Per Brunsell; Marco Ariola; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Magnetic confinement fusion; Reversed-field pinch; System identification; Magnetohydrodynamics; Modal analysis; Automatic control; Resistive wall modes;

    Abstract : The reversed-field pinch (RFP) is a device for magnetic confinement of fusion plasmas. The main objective of fusion plasma research is to realise cost-effective thermonuclear fusion power plants. The RFP is highly unstable as can be explained by the theory of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). READ MORE

  3. 3. Novel RF MEMS Devices for W-Band Beam-Steering Front-Ends

    Author : Nutapong Somjit; Joachim Oberhammer; Pierre Blondy; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : This thesis presents novel millimeter-wave microelectromechanical-systems (MEMS) components for W-band reconfigurable beam-steering front-ends. The proposed MEMS components are novel monocrystalline-silicon dielectric-block phase shifters, and substrate-integrated three-dimensional (3D) micromachined helical antennas designed for the nominal frequency of 75 GHz.

  4. 4. Optimal Railroad Power Supply System Operation and Design : Detailed system studies, and aggregated investment models

    Author : Lars Abrahamsson; Lennart Söder; Arnd Stephan; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Railway power supply systems (RPSSs) differ mainly from public power systems from that the loads are moving. These moving loads are motoring trains. Trains can also be regenerating when braking and are then power sources. These loads consume comparatively much power, causing substantial voltage drops, not rarely so big that the loads are reduced.

  5. 5. Modeling and Design of Modular MultilevelConverters for Grid Applications

    Author : Kalle Ilves; Nee Hans-Peter; Alireza Nami; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Modular multilevel converter; feed-forward control; modulation; switching frequency; energy storage;

    Abstract : Grid-connected high-power converters are found in high-voltage direct current transmission (HVDC), static compensators (STATCOMs), and supplies for electric railways. Such power converters should have a high reliability, high efficiency, good harmonic performance, low cost, and a small footprint. READ MORE
