Abstract

A system for providing resonance damping is disclosed. The system comprises a power generation circuit arranged to supply power to a direct current (DC) bus. The DC bus comprises a first link conductor and a second link conductor arranged such that a current induced in either of the conductors generates a magnetic field having a plurality of magnetic flux lines that extend in a direction generally perpendicular to a first direction of current flow. At least one electronic circuit is coupled to the DC bus. A damping element is coupled to or arranged proximate the first link conductor and the second link conductor of the DC bus, and is arranged such that the plurality of magnetic flux lines induces a plurality of eddy currents having a second direction of current flow in at least one surface of the damping element to provide resonance damping of the system.
