This paper presents a performance evaluation of three-phase, three-switch, three-level, fixed-frequency pulse-width-modulated (PWM) rectifier, when an inductive connection is added between the DC-side capacitive mid-point and the AC-side source neutral. A new continuous-mode model that takes...

This paper presents a methodology for modeling and calculating PEM FCPP reliability. It includes the development of a state-space method to calculate the stand-alone PEM FCPP reliability using Markov Model (MM). The state-space method includes different states such as operation, derated, fully...

Energy companies can adjust the estimation of their reserves. We investigate how these revisions impact on the value of these firms. We analyze 100 revisions in seventeen countries for the period 2000-2010. We use an event study and find that the revisions of energy reserves significantly impact...
