Dr. Wang Shuo received Ph.D. degree in control science and engineering from Tongji University in 2019, From 2017 to 2018, he became a visiting researcher with Power Electronics, Machines and Control Group (PEMC Group), University of Nottingham, Nottingham, U.K. From 2020 to 2024, he worked as senior research fellow in Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, university of Nottingham, Ningbo, China (UNNC).  He is currently working as an assistant professor in Nottingham Ningbo China Beacon of Excellence Research and Innovation Institute (CBI) in university of Nottingham, Ningbo, China (UNNC).

His current research interests include high performance control strategy used for permanent magnet synchronous machines(PMSM), synchronous reluctance machines(SynRM) , permanent magnet-assisted synchronous reluctance machines(PMaSynRM) and switch reluctance machine (SRM). He is also interested in the topic such as open-winding motor control (OWPMSM) and multiphase-motor control.

Dr. Shuo Wang is IEEE senior member and he serves as reviewer of the following journals:

• IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics.
• IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics
• IEEE Transactions on Energy Conversion
• IEEE Open Journal of the Industrial Electronics Society
• IEEE Transactions on Transportation Electrification
• IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology
• IEEE Journal of Emerging and Selected Topics in Power Electronics
• IET Power Electronics
• IET Electric Power Application

Dr.Wang Shuo is engaged in non-rare-earth high-efficiency motor manufacturing, optimization, and control used in Electric vehicles, household appliances, and etc. Especially, he is focusing on some new types of reluctance motors, such as synchronous reluctance machines (SynRM), Ferrite-assisted synchronous reluctance machines (PMaSynRM), and switch reluctance machines(SRM).

The research targets at: 

· Power electronics topology structure

· Advanced control strategy used for motor control

· Multi-objective algorithm for motor optimization

· Transportation Electrification

Focusing on the dual carbon policy, we explore solutions for energy-saving motors with none or less rare-earth materials and we are committed to create  '''green motors'' and ''smart drive'' for the industrialization.
