Congratulations to Parth and Nishanth!

Congratulations to Summer Graduates!
Nishanth and Parth at UW Madison’s Spring 2023 Commencement Ceremony

Parth completed his MS project investigating the electromagnetic design of a high speed linear machine to actuate a hydraulic valve. This project is part of the research group’s efforts to electrify the hydraulic power systems of off-highway vehicles. Parth has delved into the details of linear machine design, optimization, fabrication, and testing.

Severson, “Design and Optimization of a Fast-Switching Electromagnetic Valve Actuator for Off-highway Vehicle Hydraulic Systems,” 2023 IEEE Transportation Electrification Conference & Expo (ITEC), Detroit, MI, USA, 2023, pp. 1-6, doi: 10.1109/ITEC55900.2023.10187013.

 

Nishanth has just wrapped up his post-doc position with us (and before that, his PhD and MS). He is headed to GE Global Research where he will be making his mark on the future of aviation.
