Doubly fed induction generators (DFIGs), often organized in wind parks, are the most
important generators used for variable-speed wind energy generation. This paper reviews …

Switched reluctance machines (SRMs) are witnessing increased interests and applications
in the industry and scientific communities thanks to the advantages of rigid structures, high …

This paper proposes a novel solution to the problems that exist in the conventional hill climb
searching (HCS) maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm for the wind energy …

Wind energy is becoming more important in recent years due to its contribution to the
independence of power generation industry from traditional fossil energy resources and …

This paper addresses the analysis and performance of several model reference adaptive
system (MRAS) observers for sensorless vector control of doubly-fed induction machines …

This paper presents two three-phase switched reluctance machine systems. One is the dual
motors drive for the electric locomotive traction; the other is the variable-speed generator …

This paper proposes a new control strategy to reduce torque ripple in a switched reluctance
motor (SRM). The flux linkage in this paper is related to model predictive flux control (MPFC) …

With the rapid development of wind power generation technology worldwide, the influence
of intermittent and fluctuating characteristics of wind power generation on the microgrid and …

In this paper, the performance of a grid-connected wind energy conversion system (WECS),
based on a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) fed by a matrix converter (MC), is …

Unlike conventional power plants, wind plants emit no air pollutants or greenhouse gases—
and wind energy is a free, renewable resource. However, the induction machines commonly …
