Professor / MIURA Yushi
Prof. Miura is an expert in power engineering, particularly specializing in power converters within the field of power systems. His expertise not only encompasses technical knowledge but also provides a comprehensive understanding of the broader perspective. Furthermore, he is approachable, friendly, and kind, making him an excellent mentor who offers valuable guidance and advice.
Research Content
In recent years, there has been a lot of improvement in adding decentralized power sources like solar and wind energy to power systems. Power electronics technology is important for these systems. Additionally, power systems are complicated, requiring not only solutions to immediate issues but also a holistic systems approach to avoid local optimization. In the Miura Laboratory, research is conducted on control methods applicable to decentralized power sources, systems utilizing semiconductor transformers, and new energy storage devices. The proposed methodologies are examined and demonstrated through simulations and small-scale test setups.
Exploring the Future of Power Systems.
A Day in the Lab
"The time spent in the laboratory is proportional to one's ability". This reflects our belief in the value of investing time and effort into our research. Prof. Miura guides students' research by assigning titles, providing clear direction, and focus. Students will demonstrate through simulations and experiments, and present in lab meeting. Additionally, to enhance English language abilities, our lab has a session called "English Thesis Presentation". When students' research shows potential and promising outcomes, they will present their work at academic conferences. Besides research, activities like skiing, snowboarding, and pizza parties foster strong bonds among lab members, including Prof. Miura.
