Subject description
The postgraduate subject is industrial electrical engineering with special focus on mathematical modelling and measurement systems for electric road systems.
The division of Industrial Electrical Engineering and Automation has a fundamental role in a national evaluation project of electric road systems (Evolution Road). An essential part of this work is related extensive measurements and analysis of electric characteristics related to the energy transfer of the electric road. The work involves collection of data, reconciliation of data, analysis of data and publication of selected aggregated data in both popular science journals and scientific journals.
Industrial electrical engineering is focused on technology and systems for electrical and electromechanical energy conversion. The subject is by nature interdisciplinary with strong elements of electromagnetism, power electronics and electronics, materials technology, electrical machine design, control technology, as well as real-time systems, industrial automation, and electrical measurement technology.
The subject is linked to industrial automation where research problems at a more general system level are included. Research in industrial electrical engineering is often inspired by industrial problems.
