Flexible Work, Better Balance
Imperial College London – Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering
South Kensington, London, United Kingdom
Imperial College London invites applications for a funded PhD scholarship focused on the protection of multi‑terminal medium‑voltage direct current (MVDC) distribution systems. This doctoral research opportunity will explore the analysis of fault scenarios, development of fault detection and location methodologies, and enhancement of protection strategies for MVDC networks that integrate distributed energy resources such as photovoltaic (PV) generation and electric vehicle charging infrastructure. The successful candidate will investigate mathematical and simulation models for short‑circuit and other fault events, review relevant converter circuit topologies and semiconductors, and work on extending and validating protection...
