The Electrical and Computer Engineering Department of National University of Singapore (NUS) is looking for a Research Fellow (Postdoc) to work on novel intelligent control algorithm in electric traction motors for electric vehicles. This research work conducted will lead to publications in high-impact journals, patent filing as well as licensing agreement with collaborating local companies. The position is available to start immediately.
Responsibilities
The roles of this position include:
Development of new intelligent control algorithm for Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSMs).
Development of computationally-efficient control optimization or machine learning for motor performance enhancement, including but not limited to energy efficiency, rider comfort, safety etc.
Collaborate with fellow researchers to implement and test the control algorithm in commercially available Motor Control Unit (MCU) from STM, Infineon etc.
Requirements
Candidates with the following qualifications are encouraged to apply:
PhD in Electrical and Electronic Engineering or related field
Expertise the following areas is preferred: motor control, optimization and machine learning.
Previous experience in developing learning-based control methods is advantageous.
Good problem solving skills
Good publication track record
