The Faculty of
Electrical Engineering has a long tradition in carrying
out research activities which range from basic to applied
research.
The teaching
staff expertise lies in the following research areas:
- Fossil and renewable sources
of energy research and development
- Electricity transmission
and distribution research and development; developing
new tools used in practical analyses and project
designs
- Efficient energy use research
- Managing safety, reliability
and stability of electric power systems using various
approaches and algorithms
- Electricity market research
- Research on distributed
energy sources and smart grids in measurement and
control devices with two-way communication in electricity
production, transmission, distribution and consumption
- Electricity quality research
- Linear, non-linear and hybrid
system of automatic control research
- Robotics research - design
of various control and sensors systems
- Optimal control and signal
processing research
- Automobile sub-system electronic
control unit (ECU) research and development
- Research on image processing
and analysis for digital photography (robot vision,
medical images)
- Information and communications
technology research
- Developing ICT software
solutions
Research
activities are carried out through implementation of
projects supported by:
- Doctoral dissertations and
masters’ theses research carried out in doctoral
and masters’ studies
- Research and development
projects supported by the interested business sectors
(power industry, electrical power industry, car
industry, chemical industry, mines)
- Projects supported by governmental
and non-governmental funds for science (Ministries,
SOROS, WUS)
- Research and development
projects supported by the EU and USA funds for science
(European Commission, German/Swiss/British/Norwegian/USA
government)
Results of research activities are published
in relevant indexed journals (CC, SCI indexes)
(IEEE Transaction, Elsevier, Springer...), other relevant
journals (WSEAS, Transactions, Energija/Energy), referent
conferences and congresses (IEEE, IFAC, IASTED, WSEAS,
MIPRO, CIGRE...), doctoral dissertations (55) and masters’
theses (77).
