Research
I am
currently doing research in the broad area of distributed generation
(microgrids) both at a component level studying power electronics
interfaces, and at a system level through controls analysis, and
improvements in terms of reliability and efficiency.
Some of my current research topics are:
- Microgrids architectures and control.
- Power infrastructure in hurricanes (please click on
any of the hurricane logos below to see pictures from my site-surveys).
NSF
CAREER award #0845828.
- Interactions between microgrids and the power grid
with focus on "smart-grid' applications. Please check the Pecan St. Project page
for information about Austin's participation in the development of the
future power grid.
- Multiple-input dc-dc converters.
- Datacenters and telecom power infrastructure.
- Constant-power loads control.
- Interfaces and controls for photovoltaic systems.
- Power electronics for oil production from algae.
- Low-input voltage and high-power converters.

Note
for prospective and current students. I am currently seeking
students with background in power electronics and power systems, and
with strong and verifiable math knowledge, particularly in statistical
and probabilistic analysis.
