1. Electro-mechanical modelling and analysis of hydroelectric rotor systems
Abstract : Hydroelectric power generation supplies about 20 percent of the world's electricity and is the most important renewable energy converting industry. The installed capacity of Hydro-electrical power generation is approximately 700GW with a production of 2600TWh/year. The technically feasible potential of hydro power is 14000TWh/year. READ MORE

2. On the Design of Ultra-fast Electro-Mechanical Actuators
Abstract : The continuously increasing demand for connecting electric grids with remote renewable energy sources such as wind power and photovoltaic cells has rekindled interest in high voltage direct current (HVDC) multi-terminal networks. Although HVDC networks have numerous benefits, their adoption relies entirely on the availability of HVDC circuit breakers which, compared to traditional alternating current circuit breakers, have to operate in a time frame of milliseconds.

3. Electro-viscoelastic Modeling of Electroactive Polymers
Abstract : While traditionally treated separately, the research disciplines dealing with electromagnetic fields respectively continuum mechanics are naturally connected. Not only are the basic equations formulated in a similar way, but the presence of electromagnetic fields affect the balance equations of continuum mechanics and likewise, the presence of material continua affect the electromagnetic fields.

4. Modeling and simulation of electro-viscoelastic polymers
Abstract : The electroactive polymer materials considered in this work react to electric stimuli by producing deformations. In some cases, the electrically induced deformations are moderate, while in other cases they can be very large and the specimen is stretched to more than twice its original length. READ MORE

5. Mid-infrared photonic devices for on-chip optical gas sensing
Abstract : Gas detection is crucial in a wide range of fields and applications, such as safety and process control in the industry, atmospheric sciences, and breath diagnostics. Optical gas sensing offers some key advantages, compared to other sensing methods such as electrochemical and semiconductor sensing: high specificity, fast response, and minimal drift. READ MORE
