Hybrid behavioral-analytical loss model for a high frequency and low load DC/DC buck converter

This work presents a behavioral-analytical hybrid loss model for a buck converter. The model has been designed for a wide operating frequency range up to 4MHz and a low power range (below 20W). It is focused on the switching losses obtained in the power MOSFETs. Main advantages of the model are the fast calculation time (below 8.5 seconds) and a good accuracy, which makes this model suitable for the optimization process of the losses in the design of a converter. It has been validated by simulation and experimentally with one GaN power transistor and three Si MOSFETs. Results show good agreement between measurements and the model

Overlapping Range Images using Genetics Algorithms

El artículo aborda el problema del encaje de diversas imágenes de una misma escena capturadas por escáner 3d para generar un único modelo tridimensional. Para ello se utilizaron algoritmos genéticos. ABSTRACT: This work introduces a solution based on genetic algorithms to find the overlapping area between two point cloud captures obtained from a three-dimensional scanner. Considering three translation coordinates and three rotation angles, the genetic algorithm evaluates the matching points in the overlapping area between the two captures given that transformation. Genetic simulated annealing is used to improve the accuracy of the results obtained by the genetic algorithm.
