My primary focus is sustainability of power electronics -- exploring ways to make power electronic systems more environmentally friendly and resource efficient.

My organisation

The Institute for Electrical Machines, Drives and Rail Vehicles (IMAB) at TU Braunschweig is a leading interdisciplinary research and teaching center dedicated to electrification and sustainable power systems. The institute combines expertise in electrical machine design, power electronics, high-performance electromobility, inductive charging, and rail traction technologies. https://www.tu-braunschweig.de/imab Research Areas Electric Drives & Machines: Advanced development of motors—from conventional to superconducting designs—optimized through electromagnetic, thermal, and mechanical modelling, including rotor dynamics and high-speed stability analyses ., Power Electronics: Design and reliability testing of compact, efficient converters using Wide‑Band‑Gap semiconductors such as SiC and GaN. The NetFlexum project exemplifies efforts to enhance lifetime and safety under diverse operating conditions., Mobility Solutions: Research spans electric vehicle drive systems, inductive wireless charging (e.g., IMAB–RACER and the “emil” electric bus project), and grid-supportive prosumer energy systems., Aerospace Electrification: Electric propulsion and cooling systems for aviation motors, including superconducting drives and modular machine topologies—for example, within the SE²A cluster.
