Dr Soheil Ranjbar

Profile

I am a postgraduate researcher (PGR) in Smart Energy Systems at the University of Leeds. I completed my PhD in power engineering at the Electrical Engineering Department in Shahid Beheshti University (SBU), in 2018 Tehran, IRAN. In 2021, I have been an assistant professor at the Electrical Engineering Department of Velayat University, Iranshahr, Iran. In 2023, I joined the University of Leeds as a PGR member at the Power Electronic Laboratory, School of Electronic and Electrical Engineering, Leeds, UK. My current research areas broadly include power system dynamic stability and state estimation algorithms with integrated renewable energy systems. I also focus on Wide-Area Measurement, Centralized Control and Protection, and Damping Controllers Design as alternative research topics.
