I have seen many papers where the authors explain the benefits of their proposed circuits. Honestly, saying these benefits are not impactful if you can't describe a specific application where it can be used, which should be the ultimate purpose? Using words like microgrids, nano-grids, high-frequency applications, high-gain converters, etc. with no concrete discussion in the rest of the paper seems to be spreading rather fast. My suggestion is to allow a paragraph or two suggesting how the proposed converter can be used in some applications and how it is beneficial with a top-level comparison to the existing state-of-the-art.
Let me know what you all think.
Dear Rahman Syed ,
The purpose of writing an application based research paper is to apply established research findings and theories to contemporary problems and issues in psychology. For example, it could be an application for a research grant, a proposal for a service learning project, or a recommendation to an agency.
Hello Rahman Syed ,
I agree with your observation, and not just in the case of circuits. The use of jargon coupled with the need to be first in some ultra-specialized area of endeavor can and does produce papers with little apparent mooring in day-to-day reality and need. I have always thought that every paper should be prefaced with a historical account of how we got here; a sort of roadmap for the generalist so that they may have some chance to come up to speed without having to consult external sources. Unfortunately, the world, being as it is, does not admit to this soft-start to most technical papers. Only review articles seem to take the time to try and ramp-up the explanation, and not subject the reader to a step-function discontinuity of information, and even here the results are many times suboptimal.

You are absolutely right. It is really helpful for the readers If authors explain the real applications of any specific converter, it will be good and useful too. Many authors already focus on the applications as well, if their paper is about the applications, but it is good if most of the papers discuss the same.
