Core loss resistance impact on sensorless speed control of an induction motor using hybrid adaptive sliding mode observer
PublicationInduction motors (IMs) experience power losses when a portion of the input power is converted to heat instead of driving the load. The combined effect of copper losses, core losses, and mechanical losses results in IM power losses. Unfortunately, the core losses in the motor, which have a considerable impact on its energy efficiency, are not taken into account by the generally employed dynamic model in the majority of the studies. Due...

Effect of electrode resistance on admittance spectra of planar organic device carrying SCLC and on charge carrier mobility extracted from susceptance
PublicationThe work presents small signal admittance spectra of a sandwich system with thin organic layer carrying a space charge limited current. The effect of series resistance of electrodes on the spectra is discussed. Spectra of small signal capacitance are added to get more detailed insight.
