Analysis of system wide distortion in an integrated power system utilizing a high voltage DC bus and silicon carbide power devices
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)
This research investigates the distortion on the electrical distribution system for a high voltage DC Integrated Power System (IPS). The analysis was concentrated on the power supplied to a propulsion motor driven by an ...
Shipboard applications of non-intrusive load monitoring
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)
The Non-Intrusive Load Monitor (NILM) provides a method of measuring component performance and source power quality through a single point of entry in the power distribution system. A study was performed utilizing the NILM ...
DC to DC power conversion module for the all-electric ship
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)
The MIT end to end electric ship model is being developed to study competing electric ship designs. This project produced a model of a Power Conversion Module (PCM)- 4, DC-to-DC converter which interfaces with the MIT ...
Evaluation and comparison of electric propulsion motors for submarines
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)
Autonomous adaptation and collaboration of unmanned vehicles for tracking submerged contacts
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)
Autonomous operations are vital to future naval operations. Unmanned systems, including autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) and autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs), are anticipated to play a key role for critical tasks ...
Shipboard condition based maintenance and integrated power system initiatives
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)
With the U.S. Navy's continued focus on developing and implementing a robust integrated power system aboard future combatants, there has been an ever increasing effort to guarantee an electrical distribution system that ...
High speed linear induction motor efficiency optimization
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)
One of the reasons linear motors, a technology nearly a century old, have not been adopted for a large number of linear motion applications is that they have historically had poor efficiencies. This has restricted the ...
Modeling for ship power system emulation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)
With the U.S. Navy's continued focus on Integrated Fight Thru Power (IFTP) there has been an ever increasing effort to ensure an electrical distribution system that maintains maximum capabilities in the event of system ...
Analysis of harmonic distortion in an Integrated Power System for naval applications
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)
This research quantifies the voltage distortion over the broad range of operating conditions experienced by a Naval warship. A steady state model of an Integrated Power System (IPS) was developed in a commercially available ...
Cooperative tracking for persistent littoral undersea surveillance
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)
The US Navy has identified a need for an autonomous, persistent, forward deployed system to Detect, Classify, and Locate submarines. In this context, we investigate a novel method for multiple sensor platforms acting ...
