Our research focuses on advanced electrical machines and electromechanical systems, integrating novel machine topologies, intelligent design and control with applications in robotics, transportation electrification, and green power generation.
We investigate advanced electrical machines, with particular interests in multiport machines, flux-modulation machines, machine control and drives, and AI-assisted machine design. Our research aims to achieve high torque and power density, flexible energy conversion, and highly integrated electromechanical systems.
Advanced Machine Design · Machine Optimization · Machine Control · AI in Machine Design

We investigate advanced electrical machines and integrated propulsion systems for electric and hybrid transportation, including automotive, marine, and aviation applications. Multiport machine technologies are explored for flexible speed, torque, and power-flow regulation in compact propulsion systems.
Electric & Hybrid Vehicles · Marine Propulsion · Aviation Electrification

We explore advanced electrical machines for renewable energy conversion, with particular interest in contra-rotating and multiport generator systems. Representative applications include wind and wave energy generation, targeting improved power density and system integration.
Wind Power · Wave Energy · Contra-Rotating Generators

We develop compact and highly integrated actuators for robotic systems, with particular interest in novel machine topologies and multi-degree-of-freedom actuation. Our research also explores intelligent actuator control toward more integrated robotic platforms.
