    An Adaptation Mechanism of Model Reference Adaptive System Based on Variable Structure Control for Online Parameter Estimation of IPMSM
    (Wiley, 2026-01) Tekgun, Burak; Barut, Murat; Ates, Ertugrul
    This study introduces stator currents-based model reference adaptive system (MRAS) estimators that employ variable structured control (VSC) in the adaptation mechanism to enable the online estimation of stator resistance and permanent magnet (PM) flux in interior permanent magnet synchronous motors (IPMSMs). These MRAS estimators estimate stator resistance and PM flux by analysing the error between the stator currents measured as the reference model and the stator currents generated by the adaptive model. The performance of the proposed estimators is assessed through simulation studies. Furthermore, the proposed approach is compared to a conventional MRAS employing a fixed-gain proportional-integral (PI) controller. Simulation results and error analyses indicate that the VSC-based MRAS algorithms outperform traditional PI-based MRAS in terms of accuracy and reliability. Additionally, the proposed method eliminates the reliance on a fixed-gain PI controller, a common component in conventional MRAS systems.

    Comparative Analysis of Modulation Shapes on Laser Diode Performance with a High-Efficiency LLC Resonant Converter Driver
    (Wiley, 2026-02-06) Yigit, Hayri; Rifat boynuegri, Ali; Tekgun, Burak; Rifat Boynuegri, Ali
    High-power laser diodes (LDs) are key components in laser-based wireless power transfer (WPT) systems, where end-to-end efficiency is one of the most critical performance metrics. This study investigates the driving performance of an LD powered by a high-efficiency LLC resonant converter under three distinct excitation waveforms-sinusoidal, triangular, and rectified-sine-using a MATLAB/SIMULINK model and an experimental setup designed to reproduce real-world operating conditions. Each waveform is synthesized through frequency modulation of a full-bridge inverter stage and filtered at the output. The analysis examines the impact of modulation shape on output current ripple, converter efficiency, and overall LD efficiency. Experimental validation confirms the simulation trends, underscoring the trade-offs between waveform smoothness, implementation complexity, and efficiency. Beyond confirming that constant-current operation yields the highest LD efficiency, this study explicitly quantifies how low-frequency current ripple induced by different modulation waveforms propagates through the LLC resonant converter, alters RMS current stress, and translates into measurable efficiency degradation at both the driver and LD levels. By experimentally correlating waveform symmetry, ripple magnitude, and loss mechanisms, the work establishes practical design boundaries for waveform-modulated laser drivers in WPT systems.

    Sliding Mode Control of a Switched Reluctance Motor Drive With Four-Switch Bi-Directional Dc-Dc Converter for Torque Ripple Minimization
    (IEEE, 2020-09) Ates, Ertugrul; Tekgun, Burak; Ablay, Gunyaz
    In this paper, a method to drive switched reluctance motors (SRM) with a modular four-switch bi-directional DC-DC converter and an H-bridge is proposed. The DC-DC converter operates as a buck or a boost converter with constant frequency to control each phase current while the H-bridge inverter switches only twice in a period to adjust the polarity of the phase voltage. Sliding mode control is designed to have fast and robust current control in the DC-DC converter. The sliding surface equation which is derived for all operation modes including buck and boost modes in motoring and regenerating conditions is defined with the estimated inductor current. The proposed drive system eliminates the bulk DC-capacitors and allows one to adjust the bus voltage individually for all phases. Moreover, the proposed system topology works with only one high-frequency switching device in the DC-DC conversion stage rather than two in conventional drives which provides a simpler current control and reduced switching losses.

    In-Pipe Electrical Machine Design for Smart Clean Water Grid Monitoring and Control Stations
    (IEEE, 2025-06-11) Erkan, Murat; Boynuegri, Ali Rifat; Tekgun, Burak
    This study presents the design of an electric machine intended to supply the electrical energy required for the operation of electronic devices and mechanical equipment that form part of a clean water smart grid network powered by renewable energy sources. The proposed machine is a permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG), specifically designed to operate under realistic physical and hydraulic conditions within clean water distribution infrastructure. The in-pipe turbine responsible for driving the rotor of the generator was selected based on findings from a symposium paper identified through a comprehensive literature review. The daily energy requirements of the smart grid's electronic and industrial mechanical components were both theoretically estimated and experimentally validated, leading to the selection of a suitable energy storage unit. Pressure data from the clean water distribution line located on the street of the design office was measured and recorded at one second intervals over a 24-hour period. Using this dataset, the optimal hydraulic conditions and time frame for battery charging were identified from the pressure-time profile. A representative duty cycle was then defined, and the performance analysis of the in-pipe permanent magnet synchronous generator was carried out accordingly.

    Development and Radiation Test of a Secondary Emission Ionization Calorimetry Module
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2025-06) Paran, Nejdet; Tiras, Emrah; Tekgun, Burak; Abubakar, Saleh
    The demand for precise, robust, and reliable radiation-resistant particle detectors and ionization calorimeters intensifies due to the escalating luminosity and unprecedented radiation conditions at particle colliders and accelerators. Secondary Emission (SE) Ionization Calorimetry is a novel technology designed to measure the energy of electromagnetic and hadronic particles, particularly in extreme radiation conditions. In this study, we have tested and investigated the development and radiation tests of the novel SE modules. The modules were developed by modifying the conventional Hamamatsu single-anode R7761 Photomultiplier Tubes (PMTs). Three different voltage conditions for the same module were created and the new modules were tested using cosmic and gamma radiation sources, Co-60. The results show that all three modes have good sensitivity to electromagnetic showers, and they are suitable for harsh radiation environments. This study also indicates that the SE module is a promising technology shedding light on future radiation-resistant nuclear and high-energy detectors. Here, we discuss the technical design, test characteristics, and cosmic and particle interaction results of the newly developed SE modules.

    Design Optimization of an Outer Rotor Pmsm for a Drive Cycle Using an Improved Mode Algorithm for a Lightweight Racing Vehicle
    (IEEE, 2020-10-05) Cosdu, Muhammed Muhsin; Hacan, Ahmet Furkan; Tekgun, Burak
    Hub motors are widely used for light-weight electric drives. The aim of this paper is to design a highly efficient out-runner permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) for a specific drive cycle in order to use it in an electro mobile contest called the "Efficiency Challenge". A multiobjective differential evaluation (MODE) algorithm is used to obtain a variety of different design options. The MODE algorithm is altered to incur less computational cost and yield better-distributed results in a comparison with traditional MODE. The alteration is performed in five different aspects: Pareto Front, Selection Algorithm, Population Size, Scaling Factor, and Rectification. The objectives for differential evaluation optimization are minimizing the motor mass and maximizing efficiency for the target drive cycle. The voltage limit and the torque ripple are defined as constraints. The optimization algorithm is written in MATLAB and the finite element analysis (FEA) is conducted in ANSYS/Maxwell 2D. The modified MODE algorithm is optimized for the PMSM with 100 generations and 3282 candidate designs. A well-distributed Pareto optimal solution set is obtained, and a suitable design is selected to be manufactured.

    A Dithered Carrier Level Shifted Sine Pulse Width Modulation Technique for EMI Reduction in Cascaded H-Bridge Multi-Level Inverters
    (IEEE, 2025-06-11) Unal, Semih; Tekgun, Burak
    Growing utilization of high-power equipment, particularly in renewable energy systems and electric vehicle applications, has increased the popularity of multi-level inverters (MLI), owing to their capacity to produce high-fidelity sine wave output, compactness, and readily modifiable control devices. Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) is a prevalent problem associated with MLI topologies. Passive EMI filters can easily eliminate this problem. Still, the bulky components used inside these filters lead to a rise in the system's overall size, weight, and production cost. This work presents a novel modulation technique called dithered carrier level shifted sine pulse width modulation (DCLS-SPWM) with the target of reducing electromagnetic interference in cascaded H-bridge multi-level inverters (CHB-MLIs). This method reduces EMI by diffusing harmonics, typically concentrated in lower frequency bands, into higher stages. In the case of DCLS-SPWM, the carrier signal frequency is dithered over a time interval while maintaining the same overall number of switching events. This destabilizes the steady-state conditions intrinsic to the modulation, resulting in a more uniform harmonic distribution. In this study, a 9-level CHB-MLI simulation is built using MATLAB-Simulink, where each module receives a 100V DC input. The efficacy of the proposed DCLS-SPWM method on harmonic reduction is analyzed and validated.
