Just wanted to say: Thank you Professor Cuk !!! Power Electronics would definitely not been at this stage without your highly appreciated contributions. I have learned a lot from you and wish you all the best !
I appreciate it very much. However, there is much more to learn! Please see above announcement on my ADVANCED POWER ELECTRONICS COURSE. I hope that after I complete my inventions this coming year celebrating my 50 years in the field, the Power Electronics will never be the same! I have the time of my life doing it!
Congratulations Professor Dr. Cuk! You are really a reference on Power electronics worldwide . I had pleasure to attend a 1wk trainning at TeslaCo (Irvine) in 2003 and was great on that time, to have first contact with the brilliant Cuk converter!!
Joao Carlos, I am so glad to hear from you. Yes, we all had a great time, didn't we? Yet, the best time is taking place right now and in the very near future. Stay tuned. If you are not yet member of my POWER ELECTRONICS INSTITUTE group here is a link for you and your colleagues to join www.linkedin.com/groups/7045487.
Thank you for reminding me of the good time we had. Since that time 15 years ago and especially in last several years I made by far my most important contributions. Some of those I am already introducing in my ADVANCED POWER ELECTRONICS course in January 14-17, 2019. See above announcements.
This is great Dr. Cuk. I really wonder what happened to the all famous Power Electronics Group at Caltech. I hear so many stories about Dr. Middlebrook but it seems one cannot even find the website of Power Electronics group now. Is it gone for good?
Unfortunately, this is indeed the case! Prof. Midlebrook retired in 1998 and I left Caltech in 1999 rather unhappy! When Prof. Middlebrook passed away in April 2010 we had a Power Electroncis Group (PEG) reunion to celebrate his life. Then in 2016 we had one hour lunch with panel of his former students, me included, celebrating his life and achievements! This was recorded by Caltech and I have posted on this same channel my recollections of what it was working with him and having fun building at the time the best and most productive Power Electroncis Research team by many accounts! In 2016 I have republished our 3 volume hardcover collection of the published papers of the Group from 1976 until 1983. The fourth volume, my PhD thesis published in 1976 along with some key original patents, was added as a fourth volume 365 pages paperback edition. They are available as a book bundle from website teslaco.com/shop/ at a 50% discount from Amazon prices. After reunion in 2010 I have continued to be even more productive with my research at TESLAco, which is continuing until present day with perhaps my most satisfying and disruptive innovations ever! Thank you for your interest in our past work and your support!
THIS SEPTEMBER 2018 MARKS 50 YEARS OF MY LEARNING, TEACHING AND INNOVATION IN POWER ELECTRONICS. TO CELEBRATE THIS GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY I WILL PRESENT MY FIRST MASTERCLASS TO FACULTY, RESEARCHERS AND STUDENTS WORLDWIDE AT UC IRVINE, CALIFORNIA ON SEPT. 25-27,2018. TITLED " POWER ELECTRONICS: FIFTY YEARS IN THREE DAYS" WILL COVER BOTH CLASSICAL SYSTEM TECHNOLOGY AS WELL AS THE LATEST RESEARCH RESULTS. THIS OCCASION IS ALSO IDEAL OPPORTUNITY TO ANNOUNCE THE PENDING RETIREMENT OF CLASSICAl BUCK, BOOST AND FLYBACK CONVERTERS!
