iRel4.0 will strengthen the industrial competitiveness of electronic components and systems for transport and mobility, digital industry and energy application by reliability along the value chain. IWO works on 3 Use Cases: E-1: a magnetic sensor for detecting partial discharges DI-3:
Providing next-generation silicon-based power solutions in transport and machinery for significant decarbonisation in the next decade IWO contribution: Systematic product develeopment of power electronics focussing on research of test-methods and applied statistics Result: Improved algorithm for linear regression weights Digital twin concept Application of similarity index to compare distributions Partners: Infineon (Lead), IPbv, Alfen, TU…
A future proof electrical infrastructure asset management model based on data driven maintenance methods and strategies IWO contribution: Predictive Health Index and resilience; main focus: statistical techniques based on light-weight computing for decision-making after early failures Result: IWO Data Analyzer for resilience. Made available as freeware Partners: HAN (Lead), IPbv, TenneT, TU Delft, GE, Stedin…
Energy saving: in a conventional degaussing installation the total energy consumption is converted into heat losses in the coils. High Temperature Superconductivity (HTS) open opportunities to apply super conducting cables on board ships, drastically reducing the energy demand of the degaussing system. IWO contribution: Bridging interface between users and researchers, supervision of TUD PhD student….
