Engr. Mohammed Abdulaziz Al Aqil

Overview

A promising academic in Electrical Power Systems Engineering with practical experience pursuing a PhD course in Electrical Power Systems Engineering. The main focus of my research is to improve the electric network asset management standards, particularly OHLs Conductors Modeling and Wind-induced conductor Vibrations studies. I'm interested in participating in research and development of current code of practice in regard to the new technology of power Conductors including High-Temperature Low-Sag (HTLS) and introducing innovative alternative solutions towards increasing the capacity of transmission overhead lines.
