Walsh Analysis with MATLAB®

Third Edition Turan Gönen

Anish Deb Suchismita Ghosh

California State University, Sacramento, USA

"This book uses Walsh Series, a switching orthogonal set of functions, to more effectively represent waveforms in power electronics. The book may be the only one in the market with this philosophy."

"…a very accessible overview of topics in distribution engineering, from fundamental design principles to the transition to a smarter, more active distribution grid.”

––J Jesus Rico-Melgoza, Universidad Michoacana de San Nicolas de Hidalgo, Morelia, Mexico

Presenting orthogonal Walsh functions for power electronic systems analysis, this book covers two major members of the piecewise constant orthogonal function family: orthogonal Walsh and block pulse functions. These bi-valued functions are compatible to digital processing and by increasing the number of component functions, a continuous-like solution can be obtained. Offering a unique approach, the text: • Provides an alternate framework to Fourier analysis • Develops a novel operational transfer function technique for power electronic systems • Discusses signal processing components for piecewise linear systems, including switch converters

—Dr. James Pilgrim, University of Southampton, UK

Designed for junior- and senior-level electrical engineering courses, this Third Edition demonstrates how to design, analyze, and perform modern distribution system engineering. Drawing on decades of experience, the author covers everything from basic system planning and concepts to system protection and reliability.

Emphasizing real-life experimentation, this book introduces the principles of operation and the implementation of controllers for induction motor drives through both simulation and experimental results. It not only shows how the induction machine can be modeled in various reference frames, but also introduces basic types of controllers by implementing them in actual experimentation. The goal of the text is to assist the reader in testing a controller for induction motor drives using a Simulink® model provided on the book’s accompanying CD-ROM. The reader can then quickly develop a prototype and validate the simulation results through experimentation with the prototype. The accompanying CD also includes MATLAB® models. The text: • Describes different controls, from Scalar to vector • Demonstrates implementation of the controller • Dedicates a chapter to system development using dSPACE 1104

Richard Lee Ozenbaugh Ozenbaugh Engineering, Checotah, Oklahoma, USA

T.A. Lipo

Rockwell Collins, Cedar Rapids, Iowa, USA

University of Wisconsin, Middleton, USA

This Second Edition approaches the study of electric machines by directly dealing with the electromagnetic fields. Focusing on the terminal rather than on the internal characteristics of machines, the text characterizes the machine in term of coupled magnetic circuits rather than magnetic fields. It provides problem sets and numerical examples, addresses Park’s equations starting from winding functions, describes operation as a LCI motor drive, and presents synchronous machine transient simulation as well as voltage regulation. It also: • Demonstrates the use of MathCAD to solve steady state operating conditions • Shows how MATLAB®/Simulink® are used in large-signal modeling of synchronous machines

Using a mix of practical methods and theoretical analysis, this text presents both a hands-on and academic approach to the design of EMI filters and the selection of components values. Through proven design methodology and application of formal techniques, readers learn how to develop simple filter solutions.

The fully revised and updated Third Edition offers analysis techniques necessary for passive filter realization, matrix method and transfer function analysis approaches for LC filter structure design, and a deeper look at EMI filters and the overall design process.

The Industrial Electronics Handbook Second Edition - Five Volume Set Edited by

Bogdan M. Wilamowski Auburn University, Alabama, USA

J. David Irwin Auburn University, Alabama, USA

Industrial electronics systems govern many different functions that vary in complexity—from the operation of relatively simple applications, such as electric motors, to that of more complicated machines and systems, including robots and entire fabrication processes.

The Industrial Electronics Handbook, Second Edition combines traditional and newer, more specialized knowledge that will help industrial electronics engineers develop practical solutions for the design and implementation of modern industrial systems.

Embracing the broad technological scope of the field, this collection explores fundamental areas, including analog and digital circuits, electronics, electromagnetic machines, and signal processing. It also facilitates the use of intelligent systems—such as neural networks, fuzzy systems, and evolutionary methods—in terms of a hierarchical structure that makes factory control and supervision more efficient by addressing the needs of all production components.

Assembling the world’s leading researchers to cover key aspects of this branch of science, the handbook includes the following volumes, which are available individually or as a complete set: • Fundamentals of Industrial Electronics • Industrial Communication Systems • Intelligent Systems • Power Electronics and Motor Drives • Control and Mechatronics Enhancing its value, this fully updated collection presents research and global trends as published in the IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics Journal, one of the largest and most respected publications in the field.

Nonlinear Control of Dynamic Networks Tengfei Liu

The primary purpose of control is to force desired behavior in an unpredictable environment, under often-arbitrary disturbances and initial conditions. Thus tracking and tracking control synthesis are fundamental control issues.

Surprisingly, however, tracking theory has not been well developed, and stability theory has dominated.

This book presents the fundamentals of tracking theory for control systems. It introduces the full transfer function matrix, which changes the theory of linear dynamical and control systems and enables a novel synthesis of tracking control that works more effectively in real conditions. It: • Establishes the new fundamentals of the complex domain theory of linear dynamic and control systems • Presents novel, sophisticated approaches and methods for tracking control design • Includes theorem proofs in the appendices
