Research Interests

My research interests encompass all areas associated with the delivery, transmission, distribution, utilization and management of energy at low (wireless, computers) and high power levels (utility, aerospace). Specific interests include: current limiting devices, power semiconductor applications, electrothermal modelling, signal processing and adaptive filtering in power engineering, electromagnetic compatibility, high frequency magnetics, control of power converters, and the application and modelling of novel light sources. Computational methods for the steady state analysis and for transients and dynamics in power systems.
