This study reviews the causes of power losses in a DC/DC converter, relates those losses
with efficiency profiles, and details different strategies for maximising efficiency when several …

Electric motorcycles use a battery storage system and a controlled inverter (motor drive) to
drive the wheels. Given that the sale of electric motorcycles is expected to grow significantly …

This paper presents a novel bidirectional series resonant converter for energy storage
systems (ESS). Conversion between a dc energy storage device and an ac grid has grown …

This study analyses a novel technique for obtaining a voltage conversion ratio greater than
one in a bidirectional series‐resonant DC/DC converter (SRC). The converter works in a …

This paper proposes, analyses and validates, both computationally and experimentally, an
AC small signal model for a Trans quasi-Z-source inverter working in continuous conduction …

Electric motorcycles offer a clean and efficient solution for urban transportation. With their
