When Danish scientist Hans Christian Ørsted discovered that electric current creates a magnetic field, a simple observation transformed science and changed the world forever. Our research group explores the electro-physical phenomena that will shape the future of power, energy, and sensing systems for the next century — from electromagnetic interactions and system resilience to advanced power technologies, grid modernization, and spatial signal processing across domains from the power grid to the underwater acoustic environment.
