TL;DR: A method to equalize the aging of the power modules of parallel-connected dc–dc converters is presented based on the power routing concept forcing a nonequalized power sharing among the modules of the modular converter reducing the maintenance costs.

TL;DR: Two power converter structures able to achieve this goal are analyzed and compared and compared in view of their contribution to improve the overall system resiliency and are found suitable for achieving the desired goals.

TL;DR: Simulation results which have been obtained from a MMC with 5 sub-modules at every arm, have validated the novel proposed circulating current control and the spectrum of the simulated line to line voltage waveform has proved the correct performance of the proposed (2N+1) SHE-PWM implementation method.

TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of the synchronization response on the stability of a weak microgrid system is demonstrated using a benchmark system simulated in MATLAB/Simulink, and it is shown that the idealized models normally used for static stability analysis do underestimate the voltage stability issue in the investigated micro grid system.

TL;DR: This article proposes an advanced discontinuous modulation, which enables to manipulate thermal stress in different cells independently, and investigates the impact of the algorithm on the overall system's efficiency as well as potential lifetime of the power semiconductors in the different building blocks.
