Low-cost PWM speed controller for an electric mini-baja type vehicle
(Journal of the Brazilian Society of Mechanical Sciences and Engineering, 2007-01-01) [Artigo]
This paperwork presents a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) speed controller for an electric mini-baja-type car. A battery-fed 1-kW three-phase induction motor provides the electric vehicle traction. The open-loop speed control ...
Electrical and Magnetic Characterization of BSCCO and YBCO HTS Tapes for Fault Current Limiter Application
(IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity, 2011-06-01) [Artigo]
Several high temperature superconductor (HTS) tapes have been developed since the late eighties. Due to the new techniques applied for their production, HTS tapes are becoming feasible and practical for many applications. ...
Fault current limiter using transformer and modular device of YBCO coated conductor
(IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity, 2013-04-08) [Artigo]
In this work, we report on the evaluation of a superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL). It is consisted of a modular superconducting device combined with a short-circuited transformer with a primary copper winding ...
Fault Current Limiter Using YBCO Coated Conductor-The Limiting Factor and Its Recovery Time
(IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity, 2009-06-01) [Artigo]
A fault current limiter (FCL) based on an arrangement of parallel connected high temperature superconducting tapes constituting a limiter element was designed and tested in 220 V line for a fault current peak between 1 kA ...

The evaluation of the electrical characteristics of technical HTS tapes are of the key importance in determining the design and operational features of superconducting power apparatuses as well as to understand the external ...
Test of a Modular Fault Current Limiter for 220 V Line Using YBCO Coated Conductor Tapes With Shunt Protection
(IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity, 2011-06-01) [Artigo]
A modular superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) consisting of 16 elements was constructed and tested in a 220 V line for a fault current between 1 kA to 7.4 kA. The elements are made up of second generation (2G) ...
Evaluation of Electrical Properties of Lap Joints for BSCCO and YBCO Tapes
(IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity, 2009-06-01) [Artigo]
The joint process between tapes of coated conductors is a critical issue for the most of the applications of high temperature superconductors (HTS). Using different fabrication techniques joints of YBCO coated superconductors ...
Optimization procedures in the design of continuous induction hardening and tempering installations for magnetic steel bars
(IEEE Transactions on Magnetics, 1998-12-01) [Artigo]
An inverse problem concerning the industrial process of steel bars hardening and tempering is considered. The associated optimization problem is formulated in terms of membership functions and, for the sake of comparison, ...
Improving Science Education Through New Perspectives
(Proceedings Of The Fourth Ieee Global Humanitarian Technology Conference (ghtc 2014), 2014-01-01) [Trabalho apresentado em evento]
The demand for engineers has always been high in growing countries, however, the world's seventh largest economy, Brazil, is still far from being one of the places with highest development in engineering. Through the normal ...
