Biografia

I received the B.Sc. and M.Sc. degree in electrical engineering in 2016 and 2019, respectively, from Politecnico di Torino, Turin, Italy. My master thesis project concerned the study, comparison and development of personal solutions for the digital control of electrical drives with Permanent Magnet Motors (PM) for light electric vehicles with the focus to the flux weakening operation.

After University, I joined the R&D department of the company Prima Electro S.p.A. to deepen my interests in power electronics and motion control. I dealt with the design of:
  • Sensorless solutions for the motion control of Permanent Magnet Motors (PM) and Induction Motors (IM).
  • Self-commissioning algorithms for PM and IM motors.
  • Thermal modelling of power electronics for the improvement of the reliability.
  • Active Power Filter (APF) for the grid power quality improvement.
  • Alternative PWM techniques for DC/AC power converters.
I joined the Power Electronics Innovation Center (PEIC), Politecnico di Torino in 2022. I am focusing my PhD activity on the advanced control of grid side power converters for fast charging systems. I am interested in the implementation of innovative solutions for the grid support as virtual synchronous generators, able to provide a virtual inertia and reactive power generation in case of faults.
