Dr. Glafkos D. Galanos, Professor and Chair

Glafkos D. Galanos received his Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Manchester, England in 1970. He was with the Research Center of the Department of Defense, Greece, as Director of the electrical engineering laboratories, until 1973 and as consultant until 1984. In 1973 he joined the University of Patras, Greece as Chair Professor of Electric Power Systems and Director of the Power Systems Laboratory. In 1974 he was appointed as Dean of the College of Engineering and in 1978 as Rector of the University of Patras. From 1975 to 1981 he served as member of the Administrative Board of the Technical University of Crete, Greece. In 1984 he joined West Virginia University as Professor of Electrical Engineering and Chair of the Power Systems group, and in 1987 he joined Southern Illinois University as Professor and Chair of the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department.

Dr. Galanos is a Fellow of IEE, a senior member of IEEE, and a Chartered Engineer. He has served on program and technical committees, and has chaired technical sessions of major international conferences in the areas of Electric Power, Circuits and Systems. He has served on the IEEE working groups in the area of HVDC Transmission and is a regular reviewer for IEEE Transactions, IEE Proceedings and NSF, in the areas of HVDC Transmission and Flexible ac Transmission.

He has received research grants and contracts of $5.4 million, and his contributions in the areas of control and protection of HVDC converters, modeling and simulation of integrated ac/dc systems, power electronics systems and flexible ac transmission are documented in thirty-three archive journal papers.
