2023 A Design Oriented Dynamic Teaching Approach for Power Electronics : Way to Attain Learning Outcomes
abstract
The objective of this work is to demonstrate a design-centric dynamic teaching technique in a power electronics course for undergraduate students at the National Institute of Technology Raipur. This strategy intends to provide a systematic approach for designing a converter over the course of a semester in order to acquire higher-order cognitive skills. Traditional teaching approaches, as well as several recently proposed techniques in the literature, are inadequate at fostering higher-order cognitive skills. Considering the aforementioned challenges, the proposed methodology involves dividing the enrolled students into groups exhibiting students of varying academic proficiency levels. These groups will be tasked with the completion of a semester-long project that entails the design and development of a DC-DC boost converter, from conception to a fully functional prototype. As a result, this technique will gradually instill many desirable skill sets such as managerial, communication, problem solving, critical thinking, software, and hardware development competency, and therefore they will be able to establish a creative mentality. Furthermore, these skill sets will drive students to pursue higher education, technical jobs, and research possibilities in the future. The course saw an increase in student interest and proficiency in practice.

2023 Reconfigurable Smart Charging Station with Multi-Segment Vehicle Accommodability: A Concept
abstract
In this study, a comprehensive analysis of existing charging stations and their emerging technologies is conducted to optimize the usage and intelligence of the existing charging station. Charging stations are currently designed for specific vehicles, such as two-wheelers, four-wheelers, and heavy commercial vehicles. The research proposes a solution that designs and analyzes smart charging stations, which can transform any existing charging station into a smart one. The technique describes the operation of smart charging stations, which employ a switching mode that accommodates various segments of electric vehicles. The analysis of switching mode involves consideration of power, current, and voltage, duty cycle is adjusted to achieve desired voltage level. Furthermore, the methodology demonstrates that the smart charger can communicate with electric vehicles battery packs and adapt the desired output power based on the battery pack configuration.
