This book introduces a novel soft-switching of boost converter by using ARCP method, which realizes the zero-current switching(ZCS) of the main and auxiliary switches and possesses the small power auxiliary circuit and full PWM capability. In the ZCS, the auxiliary switch is turned-on before the main switch is turned-on, the power circuit relies on the addition of an auxiliary switch, diode and inductor circuit to commutate the inductive load current from a main diode to an active device enabling a zero current turn-on of the main device. This book addresses the optimum selection of the...

This book comprises the proceedings of the TEQIP III Sponsored 2nd International Conference on “Gender Equity: Challenges and Opportunities” (2nd ICOGECAO 2020 -Virtual Mode), held at Sardar Vallabhbhai National Institute of Technology, Surat, Gujarat, India, from 25 to 27 November 2020. ICOGECAO provided a platform for researchers from multiple countries to present their views about the challenges associated with gender equity. Gender equity is one of the seventeen Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 5) set up by the United Nations in 2015, to promote and empower all genders equally. The...
