Core Technology for Sustainability and Environments
Electric Energy Systems Research Group
We research on electric energy systems for solving the problems of energy depletions and environment pollutions, and the sustainable developments. Our research areas are ‘Power Electronics’ and ‘Electric Machine.’ The traditional electric energy systems consisted of the passive elements such as wire, transformer, and switch. But, the active elements have been recently introduced to the electric energy systems. New power circuits, electric machines, and the control are researched from the technologies of the power devices and various energy materials, and the developed information technology. The focused research areas are as follows: Electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles/ Energy storage, conversion, charge, management/ Electric drives and electrifications/ Renewable energy device and systems including solar and wind energy / Robotic and electro-magnetic manipulation systems/ Various electric machines/ Electro-magnetic design, analysis, and optimization/ Superconducting devices and systems
