Biography:
Udaya K. Madawala (Senior Member IEEE) graduated with B. Sc. (Electrical Engineering) (Hons) from The University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka in 1987 and received his PhD (Power Electronics), as a Commonwealth Doctoral Scholar, from The University of Auckland, New Zealand in 1993. At the completion of his PhD, he was employed by Fisher & Paykel Ltd, New Zealand, as a Research and Development Engineer to develop new technologies for motor drives in washing machines. In 1997, he joined the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at The University of Auckland as a Research Fellow, and currently works as a Full Professor, focusing on a number of energy related power electronics projects.
Professor Madawala has over 27 years of both industry and research experience in the fields of power electronics and magnetics. At present, he serves as an Associate Editor for IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics and IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics, and is a member of the Power Electronics Technical Committee and Renewable Energy Committee of IEEE Industrial Electronic Society and Power Electronics Society, respectively. He has over 200 international journal and conference publications, and holds a number of patents on Inductive Power Transfer and power converters with several pending. His research interests are in the fields of renewable energy, power electronics and inductive power transfer, for which he offers his service to industry as a consultant.
