Biography & Scholarship

Research Statement:

Professor Zadehgol’s research interests include theoretical, applied, and computational electromagnetics, with a special focus on the advancement of computational algorithms and methods for the efficient (accurate, fast, and stable) modeling of arbitrary structures (media and geometries) including electrical devices, circuits, systems, and networks. In parallel, his research pursues the advancement of modeling and simulation methods in signal/power integrity (SPI) and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) across the frequency spectrum, from optical (100s of THz), to µ-waves and mm-waves (100s of MHz to 100s of GHz), to quasi-statics (10s of Hz). Our research is motivated by a desire to make a positive impact on society. His past research includes development of methodologies for modeling of disparately multi-scaled and stochastic systems, with emphasis on: computational electromagnetics (CEM); model-order-reduction (MOR); system identification, passivity/causality/stability analysis, and autonomous equivalent circuit synthesis; and modeling aided by artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) methods. A recent interest of his group has been pursuing the advancement of modeling around quantum science and engineering, including quantum electrodynamics, quantum computing, and photonics.
