Cassino, Italy
The host organization is the Department of Electrical and Information Engineering, DIEI.
Contact: Prof. Antonio Maffucci – maffucci@unicas.it
About
The DIEI conducts research in the fields of electrical and electronic engineering, automation, informatics and telecommunications. The activities of the research group involved in the present project (Electrotechnics Group) include electromagnetic modeling, computational electromagnetism, circuital modeling and model order reduction, applied to large machines for nuclear fusion energy, non-destructive electromagnetic testing, electromagnetic compatibility and nanoelectronics. According to the last University research assessment by the Italian Government (VQR report, 2017), the “Electrotechnics Group” of UNICAS is ranked #2 in Italy. In the nanotechnology area, the group has developed models for carbon nanotubes antennas and carbon nanotubes or graphene interconnects. The group also has expertise in the field of low-order circuit synthesis, fast and parallel computation techniques with CPUs and GPUs.
