六、报告人简介：
Udaya K. Madawala graduated with a B.Sc. (Electrical Engineering) (Hons) degree from The University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka, and received his PhD (Power Electronics) from The University of Auckland, New Zealand as a Commonwealth Doctoral Scholar. At the completion of his PhD, he was employed as a Research and Development Engineer by Fisher & Paykel Ltd, New Zealand, to develop new technologies for PM motor drives. At present as a Full Professor in the Department of Electrical, Computer & Software Engineering at University of Auckland, New Zealand, he leads a group of researchers focusing on a number of power electronics projects that are related to energy and wireless EV charging systems for V2X applications.
Udaya is a Fellow of the IEEE, and has both industry and research experience in the fields of power electronics and energy. He has served both the IEEE Power Electronics and Industrial Electronics Societies in numerous roles, relating to editorial, advisory, conferences, administrative & technical committees and chapter activities. He was the General Chair of the 2nd IEEE Southern Power Electronics Conference (SPEC)- 2016, held in New Zealand, and is also the Chair of SPEC Steering Committee and a Distinguished Lecturer of the IEEE Industrial Electronic Society. He is the recipient of the IEEE PELS Milan M. Jovanović Award for Power Electronics Emerging Technology and the University of Auckland Research Excellence Medal in 2024. Udaya, who has over 300 journal and conference publications, holds a family of global patents related to wireless power transfer (WPT) technology and power converters, and is a consultant to industry.
七、报告内容简介：
Perceived as one of the most promising means of future transport, Electric vehicles (EVs) are currently gaining wider acceptance. However, there are many challenges in relation to techniques of charging and the impacts of EVs on the grid and demand. Hence, both grid integration and charging techniques of EVs have become one of the main focuses of current research. EVs can be charged either by wired or wireless means, and the latter, based primarily on inductively coupled wireless power transfer (WPT) technology, is becoming increasingly popular being convenient, safe, and ideal for both stationary and dynamic (while moving) EV charging. This seminar discusses the challenges related to EV charging and presents the fundamentals of WPT and technologies that have been developed for wireless EV charging & V2X applications.
