Daniel Hutchinson is a rising senior at Pennsylvania State University where he studies Electrical Engineering. He is a change of campus student from Penn State Behrend where he played for the men’s volleyball team. At University Park, he is a member of the UAS Club and participates in the Mentor Collective Program where he helps upcoming change of campus students transition to State College. Daniel has a growing interest in renewable energy and power systems.
Hello, my name is Noah Muthler and I am rising Junior Electrical Engineering student in the Schreyer Honors College at the Pennsylvania State University. My role in Dr. Ray Chaudhuri’s research team is to build mathematical simulations of how wind turbine and synchronous generators respond to changes in wind velocity and grid power, develop frequency support via deloaded operation, and simulate how wind turbines interact with HVDC power transmission lines. Some of my interests are power systems, renewable energy, and neurotechnology. This summer’s National Science Foundation research project has sparked my interest in renewable energy technologies and University-level research. My goal in the future is conduct research in a field, such as renewable energy, that will impact the world and its people in a productive and practical way.
I am Alex Bowman, a rising senior studying Electrical Engineering at the Pennsylvania State University. I am a member of Phi Gamma Delta, IEEE, and previously worked as a lab assistant for EE210. My primary interests include power electronics, power system dynamics, and renewable energy. Following graduation in May of 2022, I intend to pursue a master’s degree.
Haoting (Alex) Luo was born in Guangzhou China in 1998. He joined the Pennsylvania State University in 2017 and will receive his Bachelors degree in Electrical Engineering in December 2020. His study interests include interface trap density of semiconductors devices, power system dynamics and control and electronic design. He is currently conducting research on renewable energy systems and working on modeling Multi-terminal HVDC.
