Prof. Dr.-Ing. Raimund Gottkehaskamp has been a Professor at Hochschule Düsseldorf (University of Applied Sciences) in the Faculty of Electrical Engineering & Information Technology since January 1997. He leads the Laboratory for Electrical Machines and teaches courses on Electrical Machines, Actuators, Theoretical Electrical Engineering, and Numerical Field Calculations. His research integrates industry collaborations with regional companies. Education: Doctor of Engineering (Dr.-Ing.), Universität Dortmund (1992) Diploma in Electrical Engineering, Universität Dortmund (1987) Research Focus: Prof. Gottkehaskamp specializes in the design, modeling, and optimization of electrical machines. His work spans analytical/numerical methods for induction motors, synchronous reluctance machines, thermal modeling, and electromagnetic field calculations. Key innovations include novel winding configurations, transient behavior analysis, and AI-assisted machine design. Publication Trends: Recent articles (2016-2025) demonstrate a consistent focus on improving efficiency and performance of electrical machines through advanced modeling techniques (FEM, analytical methods) and experimental validation. Dominant themes include synchronous reluctance motors, induction machines, thermal management, and optimization algorithms. Doctoral Supervision: He has mentored multiple PhD students in cooperative programs with institutions like TU Dortmund and Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, resulting in dissertations on motor design, transient modeling, and optimization techniques. Laboratory: Leads the Laboratory for Electrical Machines at Hochschule Düsseldorf, facilitating experimental research and industry partnerships.
