Personal profile

Biography

Mahdieh S. Sadabadi is a Lecturer in Power Systems Group, the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the University of Manchester, ManchesterUnited Kingdom. Previously, she held academic positions at Queen Mary University of London and the University of Sheffield. She was a Research Associate in the Computational and Biological Learning (CBL) Group at the Department of Engineering, the University of Cambridge, and affiliated with Trinity College in Cambridge. She was a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Division of Automatic Control at the Department of Electrical Engineering, Linkoping University in Sweden. She received her Ph.D. in Control Systems from Automatic Control Laboratory (LA)Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland in February 2016. She was a Visiting Scholar at the Electrical Engineering Department, Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal, QC, Canada, Methods and Algorithms for Control (MAC) group, LAAS-CNRS in Toulouse, France, and HHMI Janelia Research Campus in Ashburn, VA, USA. Her research interests are generally centered on robust fixed-structure control of large-scale uncertain systems, networked control systems, and their applications in power grids, microgrids, and power electronic converters.

Research interests

My research area is mainly about cyber-physical energy systems. Within the theme, the following are of particular interest:

○ Microgrids.

○ Advanced control systems in power-electronics-rich power networks.

○ Enhancing resilience and reliability in cyber-physical systems.

○ Control of GFM and GFL inverters.

Please get in touch if you are interested in working with me on any of these topics or any relevant topics.

Opportunities

Postdoctoral Research Positions

There are no postdoctoral positions currently available. However, if you are interested in joining the research group for a postdoctoral role, funding may be accessible through established fellowship programs such as Marie Curie Individual and EPSRC Postdoctoral fellowships. Please feel free to contact me to discuss your research plans and funding options.

Academic Staff Research Visit

If you are interested in visiting my research group, please feel free to contact me. I am always open to discussing potential opportunities for you to conduct a short-term/long-term research visit with the group.

Important Note: Unfortunately, due to the University of Manchester's recent policies on fee structures for PhD visiting students, I am no longer able to accept visiting PhD students.
