Hardware Situational Awareness – Identifying the Onset of Failure in Power Electronics
IEEE Cincinnati Feb 28 Section Meeting
Hardware Situational Awareness – Identifying the Onset of Failure in Power Electronics
Power electronics play mission critical roles in automotive, aerospace, medical, telecom and power generation/distribution/transmission applications. A hardware failure in these areas can jeopardize safety and come with serious financial consequences. Prognostic Health Management (PHM) Systems provide real-time situational awareness on the status of equipment along with their constituent components. This enables owner/operators to better anticipate the onset of failures and optimize their preventative maintenance strategies. This presentation summarizes the use of this technology in industry and discusses on-going research in the field.

Speakers
Dr. Mark Scott of Miami University
Hardware Situational Awareness – Identifying the Onset of Failure in Power Electronics
Dr. Mark Scott is an assistant professor at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. He teaches courses on Electronics, Power Electronics, and Electric Vehicles. His research team evaluates the design trade-offs associated with using silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) power devices in electrified transportation and renewable energy applications. The emphasis of their work is on the conducted electromagnetic interference (EMI) and prognostic health management (PHM) techniques for power conversion hardware. Additionally, they explore the benefits of using wide bandgap devices in isolated DC/DC converters.
