Control in Power Electronics: Selected Problemsby Marian P. Kazmierkowski (Editor), Ramu Krishnan (Editor), Frede Blaabjerg, J. D. Irwin (Editor) Hardcover: 528 pages Dimensions (in inches): 1.15 x 10.22 x 7.14 Publisher: Academic Press ISBN: 0124027725 1st edition (August 2002) Check price @ amazon.com , amazon.ca , amazon.co.uk From the Publisher: Control in Power Electronics brings together a team of leading experts as contributors. This is the first book to thoroughly combine control methods and techniques for power electronic systems. The development of new semiconductor power components, new topologies of converters from one side coupled with advances in modern control theory and digital signal processors has made this book possible and presents the applications necessary for modern design engineers. Personal computers would be unwieldy and inefficient without power electronic dc supplies. Portable communication devices and computers would also be impractical. High-performance lighting systems, motor controls, and a wide range of industrial controls depend on power electronics. In the near future we can expect strong growth in automotive applications, dc power supplies for communication systems, portable applications, and high-end converters. We are approaching a time when all electrical energy will be processed and controlled through power electronics somewhere in the path from generation to end use. |
