PESC06 Tutorials Call for Proposals

The PESC06 Program Committee greatly appreciates a lot of proposals from the various specialists around the world for the PESC06 tutorials. Although all of the proposals are valuable and od enough to open for the tutorial program, following three courses are selected by the program committee as a first step because of the limitation of the time schedule and expected attendances. However, the program committee is considering one or two more 4-hour tutorial courses. Thus new proposal for the PESC06 tutorial is welcomed unitl Feb. 17th, 2006.

The proposals should be sent via e-mail to the address below according to the follwing format:

[Tutorial 3] New Ways to Teach Power Electronics and Electric Machines / Drives

Lecturing Time

4 hours

Organizer

Ned Mohan (Univ. of Minnesota, USA)

Presenters

Ned Mohan (Univ. of Minnesota, USA)

Content

This tutorial will describe how it is possible to teach courses in Power Electronics and Electric Machines/Drives with much higher breadth and depth simultaneously. For example, based on a building-block approach, the course on Power Electronics includes designing the feedback controller, SV-PWM and the Matrix Converter. Similarly, using the theory of space vectors explained very physically, it is possible to teach Electric Machines and Drives, from the very beginning to advanced Vector Control and sensorless DTC operation, in just tow courses.
