In order to further improve the machine performance, an...
Recently, DC distribution has been more and more considered in shipbuilding industry as an emerging solution due to its potential to enhance the system performance in terms of fuel economy, reliability, volume and weight. Moreover, there is a growing trend to integrate alternative power sources (APSs) and energy storage systems (ESSs) into next-generation ships, and thus reducing cost and emission...
Synchronous machines exhibit, under normal operating conditions, torque oscillation problems. This work presents a study that proposes a methodology for the reduction of these oscillations.

With the development of the smart meters, demand response (DR) is able to provide fast ancillary services, such as frequency control. Some recent studies demonstrated that DR can perform like thermal generators in the frequency control. However, little attention has been paid to DR's effect on the electromechanical oscillations of the power system. Fast-response DR can not only affect system frequency,...
In this paper a flux weakening method for a wind power permanent magnet generator is proposed. In a wind energy conversion system, the rotor speed increases with the wind speed, hence a flux weakening (FW) algorithm should be implemented as a part of the control structure in order to prevent generator voltage from exceeding the maximum permissive value. On the other hand, it is essential to provide...
