I'll research that further, thanks

Actually, a couple links to some overviews would really be helpfull

Did I not explain it very well? I thought I posted enough info so it could be easily understood. Do you have any experience with buck or boost SMPS circuits?

I do, but for some reason I'm failing to see how they could be 'meshed' to fit into the context of returning current from a lower voltage generator. So I'm thinking you'd buck the battery voltage to apply to the motor, but then on the braking side you'd boost the gen voltage to charge the battery. Are you indicating this is done in a single circuit? Maybe even a block diagram?
