Finite Element Analysis for DFIG


Finite element analysis (FEA) is the process of predicting an object’s behavior based on calculations made with the finite element method (FEM). While FEM is a mathematical technique, FEA is the interpretation of the results FEM provides. FEA gives engineers insights into complex systems and structures, helping them make more informed design decisions.

Story of the 1st Partnership

Mr Ibrahim, how come you write and speak so well? I wondered like the loading icon of a just booting phone. I have a story for that, I said.  Back in 2011, I took my first waec GCE. I was still in SS2 but my teachers were so sure I would ace it. Got my A1 in math as usual but failed English. It came in different flavors of emotions from denial to realisation and finally to acceptance. That woke me up like a wounded tiger. As great as other results were in the 9 subjects, the result was as good as useless in my opinion. Then in my secondary school, I had a friend called Olubi. He was born in the United States and is very good in english. Anytime the dictionary is not around. We would ask him to read the word. His pronunciation is the correct one by default. He also took the GCE but failed all subjects except english which he had A1. I walked up to him and said.. hello.. he said nice meeting you.. (often times I dont hear his accent). You will teach me english, I will teach you math....

Research 2025

Everything on my plate is machine learning research. To march means to move so I will be moving with wisdom into the realm of research for coming months. I hope to convert some of my works into publications and have fun in the process. I revisited my statement of purpose and also conceptualised some research proposals for my postgraduate work. I also learnt how to use latex and how to draft research proposals. The goal is to rekindle my dream to become a world class researcher.

Becoming a MATLAB Student Ambassador

It is indeed an honor to share that I am now the MATLAB student ambassador for the University of Lagos. My role is to organise programs and events that helps grow the adoption of the MATLAB software on campus. I will also be undergoing some inhouse training under the tootalage of the engineers at MathWorks.  MATLAB student ambassadors are important links between MathWorks and the University of Lagos. Ambassadors inform students about the availability of MATLAB and Simulink on campus and showcase the products’ functionality—all while earning money. Millions of engineers and scientists rely on MATLAB and Simulink in a wide range of applications and industries. I am now part of the global MATLAB community and will gain essential professional experience by working with a leading technical computing software company while still in school.

Electric Drives

For my masters thesis, I am working on control of electric drives. Electric drives powers electric vehicles, modern robotics and gadgets. Ongoing research are to reduce power consumption, heat disspation and size of these systems so effective control can be achieved at high reliability and efficiency. With existing controllers, we could develop algorithms that can help us achieve dextrity with machines. Electric drives helps us achieve precision in control at the hardware level. Next, we can integrate AI or mobile apps for monitoring and customised agent control.
