PROJECT TITLE
Fuel Cell DC-DC Power Converters
SUPERVISORY TEAM
PROJECT SUMMARY
This research based on to design, analyse, and develop a robust non-linear control strategy for DC-DC power converters in fuel cell applications, particularly for electric vehicles. The specific research objectives are:
- To develop a robust non-linear controller that ensures smooth and reliable operation of fuel cell networks, addressing their unique characteristics.
- To analyse and ensure the stability of the proposed non-linear control system using mathematical stability criteria, such as Lyapunov functions, under varying operating conditions and external disturbances.
- To validate the performance and reliability of the proposed non-linear control system through experimental testing and real-world implementation.
