Kinds of Electronics Circuits Selected AbstractsAn educational tool for power electronics circuitsCOMPUTER APPLICATIONS IN ENGINEERING EDUCATION, Issue 1 2010Cetin Elmas Abstract In this study, an educational tool has been prepared for a shorter term and more economic education of power electronics circuits. In parallel with the improvements of semiconductor technology, the development of power electronics circuits has magnified the importance of either teorical or practical education of power electronics course. The education of power electronic circuits in laboratory is an agelong, costly piece of work. In this study, to overcome the mentioned negativities, a tool has been prepared for the education of power electronic circuits. The tool, which has been prepared on C++ Builder environment has a flexible structure and a graphical interface. It has enabled the analysis of working principles of the circuits and traceability of the system response by the help of graphics, under different conditions created by changing the values of circuit elements. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

C. Tam Abstract Simulation of steady-state waveforms is important to the design of power electronics circuits, as it reveals the maximum voltage and current stresses being imposed upon specific devices and components. This paper proposes an improved approach to finding steady-state waveforms of power electronics circuits based on wavelet approximation. The proposed method exploits the time-domain piecewise property of power electronics circuits in order to improve the accuracy and computational efficiency. Instead of applying one wavelet approximation to the whole period, several wavelet approximations are applied in a piecewise manner to fit the entire waveform. This wavelet-based piecewise approximation approach can provide very accurate and efficient solution, with much less number of wavelet terms, for approximating steady-state waveforms of power electronics circuits.
