Previous Notable Researchers:
-
Alfredo Beltran, Graduate Research Assistant
-
Alfredo Beltran was a Graduate Research Assistant, who worked under Dr. Das' supervision on novel MPPT algorithm development. His research and Master's Project involved Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) of Photovoltaic Arrays and PV Systems by improved Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) technique. He has co-authored three IEEE Conference Proceedings papers (IEEE PVSC and IEEE SoutheastCon). Alfredo graduated in 2020 with a M.S. degree in Applied Engineering - Electrical from KSU.
