Closing date :26/08/2012
Location :Sackville Street
Reference :EPS-01103
Hours per week :35
Salary : £29,249 to £35,938
Faculty / Organisational unit :Engineering Physical Sciences
Division :Electrical & Electronic Engineering
Employment type :Fixed Term Duration:12 months
Applications are invited for three post-doctoral Research Associates (PDRA) positions to contribute to the development of novel Smart Wide Area Monitoring, Protection and Control (WAMPAC) applications.
You will be working on development of novel Smart Wide Area Monitoring, Protection and Control (WAMPAC) Applications, targeting at least two new patents and products which will in 2014 be included in the platform of one of world major developer and manufacturer of WAMPAC/EMS/DMS systems. The project is strongly supported by National Grid, UK and as such offers an intensive research into WAMPAC challenges with a very high Technical Readiness Level, i.e. closely related to very practical applications.
The WAMPAC applications to be developed are:
a) Intentional Controlled Islanding and
b) Power System Restoration.
They will be tested using a flexible software and hardware platform which will also be developed during the project. You will be strongly supported by existing PhD students (10+) and colleagues within the School and from industry involved in the project.
You should have or be about to obtain a PhD or equivalent in Electrical Engineering or in another relevant discipline, and candidates who have not yet finished their PhD program are strongly encouraged to apply. Experience in assessing large scale power networks and in developing software/hardware platforms, in power systems, in particular wide area monitoring and in protection & control, is highly desirable.
You should have a proven ability to work independently, carry out data analysis, and present results in an effective manner. Good written and oral communication skills are also essential.
The University of Manchester values a diverse workforce and welcomes applications from all sections of the community.
