Increasing DC loads along with DC nature of distributed energy resources (DERs) raises interest to DC microgrids. Conventional droop/non-droop power-sharing in microgrids suffers from load dependent voltage deviation, slow transient response, and requires the parameters of the loads, system and DERs connection status. In this paper, a new nonlinear decentralized back-stepping control strategy f...

A static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) is generally used to regulate voltage and improve transient stability in transmission and distribution networks. This is achieved by controlling reactive power exchange between STATCOM and the grid. Unbalanced sags are the most common type of voltage sags in distribution networks. A static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) is generally used to maintain...

Microgrid control in isolated mode is a highly important subject area. In the present paper, a new method is used for controlling the isolated microgrids. This method was used based on the classification of the microgrids into two groups, namely fast-dynamic (battery and flywheel) and slow-dynamic (diesel generator, electrolyzer, fuel cell). For the microgrid components with fast dynamics, a se...

Dynamic response of a converter plays an important role in many applications which change load in a rapid manner, especially in PoL(Point of load)applicat ions. Here a new method for improving the dynamic response of a converter is presented. Here separate control schemes are implemented during steady state as well as transient load conditions. A three level buck converter topology with fast tr...

pet (positron emission tomography) is a powerful imaging technique that can provide quantitative information on the distribution of positron emitter labeled radiopharmaceuticals (pet radiopharmaceuticals) in the body. positrons (ß+) are positively charged beta particles. they are emitted when the atom is proton rich. a positron has only a transient existence. after losing all of its kinetic ene...

The main goal of this study is the use of Lyapunov’s stability theory to a three-phase four-wire shunt active power filter (SAPF), since this method has been applied effectively to other areas of converter. The dynamic model of the SAPF is first established, after that, a combination of fuzzy tracking control and Lyapunov function is suggested in order to impose a desired transient waveform on ...
