Research Group

New PhD and Post-doc Positions Available


The Power & Energy Team at Wayne State University is seeking multiple PhD students and Postdocs in the areas of power electronics, particularly in high-power DC/DC converters. Selected students/Postdocs will be advised by Prof. Caisheng Wang.

The successful candidates are expected to have a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering or closely related field. In addition to good publication records, it is preferable for the candidates to have strong hand-on ability and experiences in power converter circuits implementation. The suitable and interested applicants may contact Prof. Wang directly at cwang@wayne.edu with a detailed CV and a list of three references.

The Ph.D. students should have a MS degree in Electrical Engineering or closely related field. The Ph.D. students are expected to have necessary background and skills for carrying out high-quality research and implementation of power electronic converters that may include wide bandgap devices. The interested students please contact Prof. Wang at cwang@wayne.edu with their CVs, GRE scores, and TOFEL/IELTS scores (for international students).

Wayne State University is a premier, public, urban research university located in the heart of Detroit, where students from all backgrounds are offered a rich, high quality education.

Identifying Generation and Emission Sources for Individual Loads at Specific Locations and Times: Toward Environmentally Sensitive and Guided Electricity Usage, NSF

(1) Create a novel electric circuit theory based method for tracing power flows between individual loads and generation sources without any power flow distribution assumptions. The generation sources and the corresponding emissions will be accurately identified and calculated for the total demand of individual loads at any location and time.

(2) Construct an LMP based and binding constraint informed method to identify specific marginal generators and to quantify locational marginal emissions (LMEs) due to incremental changes of individual loads in real time. Since the proposed method requires only publicly available information, it is particularly suitable for regular users who do not have access to confidential or proprietary information of power grid.

(3) Develop and verify an economic/environmental optimal load management method based on LME and LMP signals. Just like the LMPs, the LME values can be published at specific locations in real time as well. Our focus is load management and the emission information delivery for residential users.
