Description
The joint conferences SPEC (Southern Power Electronics Conference) and COBEP (Brazilian Power Electronics Conference) are the most important forums for researchers in power electronics in the south hemisphere. It offers an ideal opportunity for researchers, engineers, academics and students from all over the world to bring the latest technological advances and applications in Power Electronics to the Southern Hemisphere, as well as to network and promote the discipline, strengthening the relationship between industry and academia professionals
Cutting edge researchers will present keynote speeches during a four day programma that also features tutorials and technical sessions on theory, analysis, design, testing and advances within the field of power electronics.
Scholarships will be offered for students, and the papers presented at the conference will be included in the IEEEXplore Digital Library.
The 15th COBEP and the 5th SPEC are being organized by the Brazilian Power Electronics Association (SOBRAEP), the IEEE Power Electronics Society (PELS) and by the Universities at the state of São Paulo: University of Campinas, University of São Paulo, State University of São Paulo and Federal University of ABC.
