Profile
Michael Knauff received his B.S.E. from the University of Hartford in 2003. At the University of Hartford he was part of the Acoustics and Music program run by Dr. Robert Celmer. He is currently working on his M.S. and Ph.D in Electrical Engineering at Drexel University, and is part of the Navy's N-STAR program, which is designed to bring more than 2,000 of the nation's brightest scientists, engineers and technology professionals into the Navy S&T workforce during the next five years.
His current research focuses on battery modeling, specifically comparing distributed circuit models with more traditional models involving lumped circuit elements. Other research interests are varied and include hybrid systems, power electronics, control, and optimal power flow.
