Resilient Power Electronic Systems

Resilient Power Electronic Systems explores the challenges in power electronic converters, analyzing failure mechanisms, including internal and external faults. This book expertly presents advanced techniques for reducing noise effect on fault detection and prognosis. Comprised in thirteen chapters, the authors Â- noted experts on the topic Â- deal with resilience and effective operative life concepts in the field of power electronics. Methods for resilience and power electronic converters are presented, in addition to the difference between high reliability and high efficiency systems. This book demonstrates how high efficiency is not equivalent to high reliability in complex systems and various methods are presented to improve the resilience of power converters.
