Sobhi Barg serves as an Assistant Senior Lecturer in Power Electronics at Mälardalen University's Department of Computer and Electrical Engineering (DET) in Sundsvall, Sweden. His position within the STC Research Centre focuses on advanced power conversion systems and magnetic component design for electric vehicles and renewable energy applications.
Education:
- PhD in Electrical Engineering from National Engineering School of Sfax (2018)
- Erasmus Master in Sustainable Transportation and Electrical Power Systems (University of Oviedo, University of Nottingham, Polytechnic Institute of Coimbra) (2015)
- Master in Electrical Systems from National Engineering School of Tunis (2010)
- Engineering Degree from National Engineering School of Tunis (2008)
His research centers on multi-objective optimization of power electronic systems, with expertise in core loss modeling for high-frequency magnetics, wireless power transfer, and EV power conversion. Recent work demonstrates innovative approaches to planar magnetics using unbalanced-flux techniques and precise core loss calculation for non-sinusoidal waveforms, significantly advancing efficiency in power converter design.
Publications since 2019 reveal strong focus on magnetic component optimization and loss modeling, with 50% appearing in IEEE Transactions journals. Key trends include development of empirical core loss models for complex waveforms (2025), novel unbalanced-flux approaches for planar magnetics (2023-2024), and multi-objective GA optimization techniques for flyback transformers (2019).
Scientific Recognition:
- Erasmus Mundus Scholarship-Category A (48,000 Euro) for Master studies in Sustainable Transportation and Electrical Power Systems (2013-2015)
Dr. Barg teaches Analog Electronics and Electric Circuits laboratory courses while contributing to the STORE (Electrical Energy Storage) and MDOBC research projects. His work at the STC Research Centre bridges theoretical modeling with practical applications in renewable energy systems and electric vehicle powertrains, emphasizing experimental validation through Seebeck effect measurements and FEA simulations.
Current research activities include DC inductor design based on Ampere's Law (2024) and continued refinement of core loss models for next-generation power converters, with significant implications for high-efficiency energy conversion in sustainable transportation systems.
