His pioneering work in power electronic systems and high-speed motor drives f or next-generation aircraft has led to impactful collaborations with indus try leaders like Safran\, Leonardo Aircraft\, and Dassault Aviation. Dr. Y ang's contributions are extensive and influential with over 120 peer-revie wed journal and conference papers and five book chapters.\n\nDr. Yang is a n esteemed Industrial Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering and an IE T Fellow. He is also a very active IEEE member. As the Chair of Technical Committee on Aerospace Power in IEEE Power Electronics Society and the Ina ugural Chair of Technical Committee on Emerging Technologies for Transport ation in the IEEE Transportation Electrification Council\, Dr. Yang plays a key role in shaping the future of aerospace power electronics and digita l twinning for transportation electrification. He also contributes to indu stry standards as an SAE AE-7M Standards Committee member.\n\nSUMMARY:\n\n In this talk\, Dr. Yang will present the latest research advancements from his team on aviation electrification\, with a focus on contributions with in the EU CleanSky & Clean Aviation programme. The discussion will span cu tting-edge developments\, from high-speed integrated motor drive systems f or a turboprop engine mild-hybridisation to development of MW-level electr ical propulsion. Emphasising key technological breakthroughs\, challenges\ , and future directions\, this talk will provide insights into how these i nnovations shape the next generation of sustainable aviation.\n\nContact: Dr. Zian Qin\, IEEE Benelux TEC Chair\, z.qin-2@tudelft.nl\n\nVirtual: htt ps://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/514647 LOCATION:Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/514647 ORGANIZER:z.qin-2@tudelft.nl SEQUENCE:23 SUMMARY:Turboprop Aircraft Electrification - from Mild Hybridisation to Ele ctric Propulsion URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/514647 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p class="MsoNormal"><strong>--Technical Webi nar Series by IEEE Benelux Section Transportation Electrification Council Chapter--</strong></p>\n<p class="MsoNormal"><strong>Topic: Turboprop Airc raft Electrification - from Mild Hybridisation to Electric Propulsion</str ong></p>\n<p class="MsoNormal"><strong>Speaker: Dr. Tao Yang<span lang="EN -US">\, Full Professor\, University of Nottingham\, UK</span></strong></p> \n<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><img src="https://events.vtools. ieee.org/vtools_ui/media/display/d1e3e6ca-ab8f-489c-890b-fecc7dba4f5e" wid th="172" height="215"></span></p>\n<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" ><strong>Bio:</strong>&nbsp\;</span></p>\n<p class="MsoNormal">Dr. Tao Yan g is a full professor of aerospace electrical systems at the Power Electro nics\, Machines\, and Control Institute within the University of Nottingha m\, UK\, and a leading global expert in aviation electrification.
