Worked on the development of multiphysics sensor array for power electronic converter prognostics for electric vehicle applications
Created a sensing platform to quantify the health status of power electronic modules within electric vehicle drive systems, using an array of multi-physical sensors to generate a spatially sparse IMAGE of measurements. This IMAGE consisted of temperature, electrical quantities (V, I, Z), mechanical displacement (wire bond movement/device deformity) at different time scales
Collaborated with four universities and two industrial partners
Developed control strategies for autonomous control of AC/DC microgrids with energy storage and power electronic compensators for voltage and/or frequency control
Completed the project on the coordination of power electronic compensators in a distribution system
Provided guidance and supervision to PhD students working in the research group
Developed an integrated approach to voltage and/or frequency control, and demand response in distribution networks by autonomous control of power electronic compensators to increase the number of renewable energy units and electric vehicle charging stations in a power system.
Reviewed papers for IEEE Transactions on Smart Grids, IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery and IEEE Transactions on Sustainable Energy
Worked in LEA Laboratory (Power Electronics and Electrical Drives lab)
Participated in the research for the development of a Linear Rail Cab System using linear induction motor technology, and supercapacitors/batteries hybrid energy systems
