Research Background
My research work has historically focused on electrical machines, drives and power electronics. I have worked on:
- Experimental validation of new electric machine designs, Synchronous Reluctance Machine (SynRM) and a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine (PMSM)
- Development of a novel control strategy for a variable flux PMSM
- Development of a three level inverter SynRM drive for traction applications
- Development of a new modulation scheme for a three level inverter drive
- Core loss performance of a SynRM under a three level inverter drive
Research Openings
I am actively recruiting new research students in the following areas
- Renewable energy systems
- Rotating electric machines and drives
- Control of rotating electrical machines
- Condition monitoring of rotating electric machines
