power
Power electronics, electric-vehicle charging and power-system planning.
Research directions
Wireless charging of electric vehicles
Resonant inductive power transfer for EVs with LCC-LCC compensation: coil design, disturbance analysis of uncoordinated and coordinated source-transition methods in PV/grid interchangeable systems, and charging-grid interaction.
Drive electronics and reliability
Reliability-driven design of BLDC motor drives, with attention to warranty and field-failure behaviour (see consultancy).
Solar PV in regional grids
Optimal allocation of utility-scale photovoltaic plants in Bangladesh's regional transmission grid, using particle-swarm optimisation with static and time-series assessment.
Automatic voltage regulators (AVR)
Design, modelling and tuning of automatic voltage regulators for synchronous generators: excitation-system models, controller tuning, transient response and stability of the regulated terminal voltage.
Grid simulation and ML-based derating prediction
Power-system simulation of Bangladesh's grid, combined with machine-learning algorithms that predict the derating of power plants (the loss of available capacity under temperature, fuel and operating conditions) to support planning and dispatch.
