Petru Andrei is Associate Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineeirng at Florida State University and Florida A&M University. He received his Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of Maryland at College Park in 2004 and his M.S. and B.S. in Physics from the Alexandru I. Cuza University in Romania. He joined the FAMU & FSU College of Engineering  in Fall 2004.

Dr. Andrei has published on the modeling and simulation of nanoscale semiconductor devices, optimization and design of power devices and is magnetic materials, and on computational electromagnetics. He is particularly interested in the analysis of variability and noise in semiconductor devices, quantum mechanical induced effects in nanoscale devices (nanobelts. CNT, graphene, etc.), redesign and optimization techniques, inverse problems, modeling and analysis of magnetic properties of nanostructure systems, fast multipole methods, magnetic semiconductors, hysteresis, and thermal relaxation phenomena in nanostructures.


  

ANNOUNCEMENTS
   
 

I am looking for a Ph.D. graduate student in the area of the modeling and simulation of energy storage devices (particularly lithium batteries and fuel cells). The student must be enrolled in the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering and be familiar with C++ programming. Please contact me if you are interested.

  FREEDM
The Future Renewable Electric Energy Delivery and Management (FREEDM) Systems Center is an NSF-ERC that aims at developing a revolutionary power grid based on power electronics, high bandwidth digital communication, and distributed control. It is the "internet for energy" and its goal is to transform the power industry in a similar way that the internet transformed the computer industry from the mainframe computer paradigm to the distributed computing we have today.

Please visit the FSU-FREEDM webpage or the central website at NCSU for more information.


  
  RandFlux
Program for the simulations of nanoscale and power semiconductor devices, Li-ion and Li-air cells, analysis of random doping and oxide roughness induced effects, redesign and optimization, and solving inverse problems in semiconductor devices. The user can connect all these devices together with SPICE-like devices and perform mixed-mode circuit simulations.


  
 
HysterSoft
Program for the simulation of hysteresis phenomena in magnetic materials. It provides an user-friendly interface in which phenomenological models of hysteresis can be integrated. The following models are implemented so far: the Energetic model, the Hodgdon model, the Jiles-Atherton model, the Langevin  model, and the Preisach model.


  
  AnyVSM
Software for the computation of the anisotropy function and critical curve of thin films by using Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM) measurements.
