Biography

Ebrahim Rahimpour (SM’10) received the B.Sc. degree in electrical engineering from Tabriz University in 1993, and the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical power engineering from the Faculty of Engineering of Tehran University, Tehran, Iran, in 1995 and 2002, respectively.

He was an Associate Professor at the University of Zanjan, working on modeling and monitoring of electrical machines, especially transformers from 2002 to 2007. He acquired a Georg Forster Research Fellowship of the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation (AvH) Scholarship in 2007 and performed some research involving the transfer function method at the Institute of Power Transmission and High Voltage Technology of Stuttgart University until 2008.

He has had several positions, including Director of Electrical Engineering Department at University of Zanjan, Program Chairman of the 13th Iranian Conference on Electrical Engineering, the project leader of transformer transients and responsible for Hitachi transient tools at Hitachi Energy, Transformers, Bad Honnef, Germany. Additionally, he is a member of CIGRE WG A2/C4.39, CIGRE WG A2/C4.52 and Convenor of CIGRE WG A2.63.

Currently, he is a professor in the field of electric power systems and network components at the Technical University of Applied Sciences Würzburg-Schweinfurt.
