Dr. Kolar has published over 350 scientific papers in internationaljournals and conference proceedings and has filed 75 patents. He was appointedProfessor and Head of the Power Electronic Systems Laboratory at the Swiss FederalInstitute of Technology (ETH) Zurich on Feb. 1, 2001.The focus of his current research is on AC-AC and AC-DC converter topologies withlow effects on the mains, e.g. for power supply of data centers,More-Electric-Aircraft and distributed renewable energy systems. Further main areasof research are the realization of ultra-compact and ultra-efficient convertermodules employing latest power semiconductor technology (e.g. SiC), novel conceptsfor cooling and EMI filtering, multi-domain/scale modeling/simulation andmulti-objective optimization, physical model-based lifetime prediction, pulsedpower, and ultra-high speed and bearingless motors.He received the Best Transactions Paper Award of the IEEE Industrial ElectronicsSociety in 2005, the Best Paper Award of the ICPE in 2007, the 1st Prize Paper Awardof the IEEE IAS IPCC in 2008, the IEEE IECON Best Paper Award of the IES PETC in2009, the 2009 IEEE Power Electronics Society Transaction Prize Paper Award and the2010 Best Paper Award of the IEEE/ASME Transactions on Mechatronics. He alsoreceived an Erskine Fellowship from the University of Canterbury, New Zealand, in2003. He initiated and/or is the founder/co-founder of 4 spin-off companiestargeting ultra-high speed drives, multi-domain/level simulation,ultra-compact/efficient converter systems and pulsed power/electronic energyprocessing. In 2006, the European Power Supplies Manufacturers Association (EPSMA)awarded the Power Electronics Systems Laboratory of ETH Zurich as the leadingacademic research institution in Power Electronics in Europe.Dr. Kolar is a Fellow of the IEEE and a Member of the IEEJ and of InternationalSteering Committees and Technical Program Committees of numerous internationalconferences in the field (e.g. Director of the Power Quality Branch of theInternational Conference on Power Conversion and Intelligent Motion). He is thefounding Chairman of the IEEE PELS Austria and Switzerland Chapter and Chairman ofthe Education Chapter of the EPE Association. From 1997 through 2000 he has beenserving as an Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronicsand since 2001 as an Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics.Since 2002 he also is an Associate Editor of the Journal of Power Electronics of theKorean Institute of Power Electronics and a member of the Editorial Advisory Boardof the IEEJ Transactions on Electrical and Electronic Engineering.
