New demands in electric vehicles have resulted in design changes for the power electronic components such as the capacitor to incur lower volume, higher operating temperatures, and dielectric properties (high dielectric permittivity and high electrical breakdown strengths).
A new, simpler power module and manifold design shows lower weight and volume, which allows higher power density compared with current state of the art.
Modern automobiles are operated by small computers that communicate critical information via a broadcast-based network architecture called controller area network (CAN).
Wind or hydro power are predominantly large-scale with giant generators to convert wind or water captured by turbines into electricity. But residential-sized wind turbines could generate power for a whole house.
There is a strong drive to improve the electrical performance of a power module for power electronics applications including transportation, buildings, renewables, and power delivery.
We have developed an aerosol sampling technique to enable collection of trace materials such as actinides in the atmosphere.
Electrical utility substations are wired with intelligent electronic devices (IEDs), such as protective relays, power meters, and communication switches.
Real-time tracking and monitoring of radioactive/nuclear materials during transportation is a critical need to ensure safety and security. Current technologies rely on simple tagging, using sensors attached to transport containers, but they have limitations.
