Nesrine Belhadj Youssef is born in 1979. she has obtained the Master in electrical engineering, speciality automation, from the Ecole Supérieure des Sciences et Techniques de Tunis in July 2003, then the Ph. D. in engineering with mention excellent, from the école de Technologie Supérieure of Montreal (www.etsmtl.ca)  in December 2007. 

  

  

 She has been awarded the best Ph. D. thesis by the ETS administration council, during the annual grades collation, held at the Place des Arts/Montreal in November 2008.

 

 

 

 

                                                                

                                                                                                                                          

 From 2004 to 2007, she has been a member of the Research Group in Power Electronics and Industrial Control (http://www.etsmtl.ca/zone2/recherche/labo/grepci/), under the co-supervision of Professor Kamal Al-Haddad, fellow IEEE, head of the Canadian Chair in Electrical Power Conversion and Power Electronics (http://www.etsmtl.ca/zone2/recherche/chaires/), and Dr. Hadi-Youssef Kanaan, assistant professor of electrical engineering at the Saint-Joseph University-Lebanon (www.usj.edu.lb).

Her research investigations are essentially centred on the design, optimization, modelling and real-time control of the three-phase PFC-SMRs. During her doctoral studies, she has been able to develop good qualifications in diverse softwares, such as Orcad Layout, Matlab/Simulink, SimPowerSystem toolbox, Real-Time Workshop and the controller board dSPACE-DS1104.  Apart the power electronics field, she also detains good backgrounds in system theory and industrial control.

 

 

 

      

  

                                                                                                            

 

 

She has  already participated to several international conferences, such as ICIT, ELECTRIMACS, ISIE, IAS and IECON, where she has received twice the author appreciation certificate.

 

 

 

 

 

She is also first author of 12 conference papers, and 4 journal articles published in the prestigious IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics and the IET-Electrical Power Applications.

 

 

  Since June 2008, she is working as a post-doc researcher, with Polytechnic of Turin (http://www.polito.it/index.en.php), and more precisely with the company VISHAY Semiconductor Italiana S.p.A , as a member of the polytechnic R&D lab. her duties are essentially centred on the characterization and the benchmarking of power electronics devices, notably the Trench technology (Gen. 2 and Gen. 5). She has also contributed to investigating the possible applications of this technology in the fields of solar energy, power converters and automotive.
