About

Dr. Duc-Kien Ngo is a rising expert in advanced motor drive systems and power electronics, with a focus on enhancing efficiency and reducing energy losses in electric machines. His key research areas include intelligent control algorithms, harmonic mitigation, and the application of wide-bandgap semiconductors such as silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFETs. In his most cited work, Dr. Ngo introduced a novel auto-tuning proportional-derivative (PD) fuzzy logic controller that selectively suppresses current harmonics in interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) drive systems. This contribution is particularly significant for reducing operational losses and improving performance in high-efficiency motor drives, a critical need for electric vehicles and industrial automation. Although early in his career, his innovative integration of fuzzy logic with real-time auto-tuning has already garnered attention, with his top paper receiving 2 citations. Dr. Ngo’s work represents a promising step toward smarter, more adaptive power electronic systems, positioning him as a researcher to watch in the evolving landscape of sustainable motor drive technologies.
