A global approach dedicated to EMC and energy efficiency

In order to provide a "multi-scale" design of the power electrical systems, two kinds of devices are identified: (i) those dedicated to power conversion; and their (ii) couplings. While the finite element method appears to be the natural design tool in the former, the so-called PEEC method is the more suitable in the latter. All devices should achieve EMC and design should be sought within the life cycle assessment framework to take network management considerations into account
