Amar Bousbaine

Amar Bousbaine serves as Associate Professor in Power Electronics and Automotive Electrical Systems within the Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering at De Montfort University's College of Science and Engineering. His academic work bridges theoretical research with practical hardware implementation across power electronics, renewable energy systems, and advanced control engineering.

His research spans critical domains including:

• Power converter design for automotive applications (buck, boost, and buck-boost topologies)
• Renewable energy integration (solar, fuel cells) with hybrid storage systems (batteries, supercapacitors)
• Microgrid optimization for electric vehicle charging infrastructure
• Advanced control strategies for robotics (quadcopters, PUMA robots) using fuzzy logic, sliding mode, and Kalman filtering
• Thermal modeling of electrical machines and electro-thermal coupling analysis

Bousbaine's work emphasizes real-world validation through hardware implementation on platforms like Texas Instruments C2000 microcontrollers, demonstrating strong industry relevance in naval propulsion, cathodic protection, and electric transportation systems.

Analysis of his 15 most recent publications reveals dominant research trajectories in power electronics for renewable integration (40%), electric vehicle infrastructure (25%), and robotics control systems (35%). His work consistently combines simulation with experimental validation, particularly in DC-DC converter design, fuel cell applications, and quadcopter control algorithms.
