NewsTeaching is one of the most difficult jobs today. But it provides challenges, excitement, personal reward and the chance to make a difference in the lives of young people. Working with students keeps you young and enthusiastic and allows you to guide them in becoming empowered and creative human beings.
The purpose of Electrical Machine I course is to introduce the Electrical Engineering 2nd year students to the fundamentals of electrical machines. Starting from basic concepts, the students are led to understand how the most used electrical machines are built and how force, torque, induced voltages and currents are developed in dc, induction and wound rotor synchronous machines. Then models of the machines are developed, in terms of both simpli?ed equations and of equivalent circuits. Equations are kept to a minimum, and in the examples only the basic equations are used to solve simple problems.
Industrial System Maintenance is an optional course for the 4th year students of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering. The course will offer comprehensive guidelines to understanding elements and procedures in the development of a cost effective maintenance policy. Testing procedures of major equipment, as cables, transformers, motors, as well as their practical aspects will be presented.
The Sustainable development for Electrical Engineering course addresses the 2nd year students of the master program of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering in Advanced Electrical structures and systems. The course contains content and worked examples that address sustainability issues and innovations of relevance to Electrical Engineering. Renewable energies, sustainable transport, life cycle assessment and eco-design are some of the topics that are to be presented to the students.
The integration of mechanical and electrical components with microelectronics opens many new possibilities for process design and automatic functions. Testing and diagnosis of mechatronic systems is a course addressing the challenging topic of validation, acceptance, diagnosis and maintenance tests for mechatronic systems, as part of advanced and complex systems as electric and hybrid vehicles, wind turbines, industrial applications. The course is part of the curriculum of the 2nd year of the Master program of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering in Control and monitoring systems in Electrical Engineering.
