INTRODUCTION

Lecturers of the Static Converters Research Team

To adapt the form and characteristics of electrical energy, and thus satisfy the very wide range of applications, the need for static conversion of electrical energy was highlighted in the general introduction to the articles on Power Electronics [D 3 000] .
