van der Horst, Koen (author), Diab, I. (author), Chandra Mouli, G.R. (author), Bauer, P. (author)The traction substations of urban electric transport grids are oversized and underutilized in terms of their capacity. While their over-sizing is an unfortunate waste, their under-utilization creates the major hurdle for the integration of renewables into these grids due to the lack of a base load. Therefore, integrating smart grid loads such...journal article 2023

Bauer, G.E. (author), Tang, P. (author), Elyasi, M. (author), Blanter, Y.M. (author), Van Wees, B. J. (author)We discuss spin-wave transport in anisotropic ferromagnets with an emphasis on the zeros of the band edges as a function of a magnetic field. An associated divergence of the magnon spin should be observable by enhanced magnon conductivities in nonlocal configurations, especially in two-dimensional ferromagnets.journal article 2023

Liao, Jianquan (author), Zhou, Niancheng (author), Qin, Z. (author), Wang, Qianggang (author), Bauer, P. (author)The unbalanced power between positive and negative poles in a bipolar DC distribution network (DC-DN) generates an unbalanced current at the neutral line, which enlarges the power losses of the system and the voltage deviation of DC loads. An unbalanced power suppression strategy based on a series-parallel power flow controller (SP-PFC) is...journal article 2023

Xiao, J. (author), Wang, L. (author), Bauer, P. (author), Qin, Z. (author)Due to the mismatched feeder impedances in a resistive feeder AC microgrid, it's challenging to accurately share harmonic and active power while promising a low bus voltage distortion rate. To address this issue, this paper proposes a distributed philosophy-based virtual impedance modulation strategy. The proposed method regulates the...journal article 2023

Grazian, F. (author), Soeiro, Thiago B. (author), Bauer, P. (author)The lithium-ion battery of an electric vehicle (EV) is typically rated at either 400 or 800 V. When considering public parking infrastructures, EV wireless chargers must efficiently deliver electric power to both battery options. This can be normally achieved by regulating the output voltage through a dc-dc converter at the cost of higher...journal article 2023

Diab, I. (author), Eggermont, Rik (author), Chandra Mouli, G.R. (author), Bauer, P. (author)The decarbonization of urban bus fleets can be made by their electrification as in-motion-charging (IMC) buses which can run as trolleybuses or in battery mode. The benefit is that IMC buses can use the existing trolleygrid infrastructure where their route overlaps with it to charge the battery and operate in battery mode outside of it....journal article 2023
