Mass Minimization of DC -Dc Converters in Portable Electrical Energy Sources

Abstract

dc:description

This dissertation presents a methodology for optimal design of portable energy-source systems, leading to an increase in specific energy density. The interaction between the source and converter is considered, which can result in a different system design than when the components are considered separately.
