Biography: Professor Yusheng Xue graduated from Shandong University, China in 1963, received an MSEE degree in 1981 in Electrical Engineering from EPRI, China and a PhD degree in 1987 from the University of Liege, Belgium. He has been an elected academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering since 1995. He is now the Honorary President of State Grid Electric Power Research Institute (SGEPRI or NARI), China, Adjunct Professor in dozens of universities in China and a conjoint professor of the University of Newcastle in Australia. He is the Editor-in-Chief of Automation of Electric Power System (in Chinese, EI indexed) and that of Journal of Modern Power Systems and Clean Energy (in English, SCI IF 1.532), as well as Chairman of the Technical Committee of Chinese National Committee of CIGRE from 2005 to 2012.

Professor Xue received a National Prize on Science in 1977, a National First Prize of Achievement in the Advance of Science and Technology in 1996, National Second Prizes respectively in 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2012. He also received a First Prize of National Excellent Technical Book Prize in 2001, a National Prize of Golden Patent in 2006 and an Excellence Patent in 2012. 

By the end of 2017, 25 Master students, 40 Ph.D students and 4 post-doctor were successfully supervised in the field of power systems or nonlinear dynamics. Other 16 Ph.D students and 1 post-doctor are being supervised. He has published 8 books and more than 604 technical papers, including 120 SCI-indexed ones and other 310 EI-indexed ones.

Biography: Apel Mahmud is currently working as a Professor in Electronic and Electrical Engineering at Flinders University. Prior to joining Flinders University, he worked as an Associate Professor in Electrical Engineering at Northumbria University Newcastle, UK from October 2021 to March 2024. At Northumbria, he was also the Head of Electrical Engineering. Before joining Northumbria, he worked as a Senior Lecturer (from and Lecturer  in Electrical & Renewable Energy Engineering at Deakin University, Australia. He also worked as a Lecturer in Electrical & Electronic Engineering at Swinburne University of Technology, a Research Fellow at the University of Melbourne , and a research publication fellow at the University of New South Wales.

In the UK, he has been a part of a £1.85 million research project on the virtual power plant funded by the EPSRC. In Australia, he has been successful in obtaining seven externally funded projects, which attracted more than AUD12.6 million in total.

So far, he published around 300 research articles, including around 130 high quality journal papers. His research interests include nonlinear control of power electronic interfaces for renewable energy applications, power system dynamics (modeling, stability, and control), power system fault analysis for bushfire mitigation, microgrids (AC, DC, and hybrid AC/DC), grid integration of renewable energy sources (small- and large-scale solar and wind), transactive energy management and optimization for microgrids, mmart metering and smart grid data analytics, energy storage systems (small- and large-scale), and nonlinear control theory and applications.
