June 2005 : Electrical Engineering Diploma
Title : Skin effect characterization in induction machines

Abstract: The aim of the thesis is to show off the influence of the skin effect upon the induction machine. Thus we began with a theoretical approach giving the variations of resistances and inductances versus the frequency. Afterwards we conducted a series of experiments on the machine in standstill in order to materialize the frequency effects on the machine’s parameters variations.
