This hands-on, interactive training course focuses on how Simscape Electrical can be used to master modeling, control, test and verification of digitally controlled switched-mode power electronic converters in motor drive systems of electrical vehicles.
Topics include:
Modeling direct current (DC) power electronic systems
Parameterizing power semiconductor devices
Controlling the level of fidelity in a model
Developing digital controls for power electronics
Modeling three-phase alternating current (AC) power electronic systems
Controlling power electronics for motor drive applications
Integrating electrical components and controllers into a system-level model
Speaker: Antonino Riccobono (PhD)
Antonino Riccobono (PhD) is a Principal Training Engineer at MathWorks, based in Turin, Italy. He leads worldwide projects and initiatives in the field of Electrification, with a strong focus on Power Electronics and Digital Control for Power Electronic Systems. He received his Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of South Carolina, focusing his research on the modeling, control, and stability of power-electronic-based DC Power Systems.
Prior to joining MathWorks in 2017, he was a Post-Doctoral Research Associate at the E.ON Energy Research Center at RWTH Aachen University, where he led the Real-Time Simulation and Hardware-in-the-Loop team, focusing on modeling, control, and stability of Complex Power Systems.
At MathWorks, Antonino Riccobono has made significant contributions to the development and dissemination of model-based design workflows for power electronics, including:
Systematic Digital Control Design for power converters using MATLAB/Simulink and Simscape Electrical™.
Techniques for frequency response estimation and small-signal stability analysis of DC and AC power distribution systems.
Authoring technical articles and delivering global training sessions that bridge theory and practical implementation in electrification systems.
His work continues to empower engineers and researchers to design, simulate, and deploy robust digital control systems for modern power electronic applications.
