Biography

Aldo Boglietti received his doctor degree (Laurea) in Electrical Engineering from the Politecnico di Torino in 1981. He jointed the Electrical Engineering Department of the Politecnico di Torino as researcher in electrical machines and drives since 1 August 1984, and he was associated professor since 1 November 1992. He is now full professor in the same Department. His research activity in the electrical machines and drive has involved the following fields: energetic problems in electrical machines with main supply (high efficiency motors) energetic problems in electrical machines with inverter supply (losses analysis and derating methodologies) energetic application and energetic problems of electrical drives energetic behavior of magnetic materials with particular interest on their use in electrical machines energetic behavior of magnetic materials with inverter supply
