Personal profile
Research interests
My primary focus in research has revolved around several key areas. These include the condition monitoring of electric motors, as well as the diagnosis and prognosis of faults in rotational machines such as helicopter gearboxes and compressors. Another significant aspect of my research has been in the field of asset management. Additionally, I have explored the application of artificial intelligence (AI) specifically in the realm of power electronics, encompassing applications in both electrical and mechanical systems.
