About

Dr. Bahareh Zaghari MSc, PhD, CEng, FHEA, is a lecturer in Electrical Power Engineering group in the school of Electronics and Computer Science at the 黑料社 (Sep 2024 鈥 until now) with research experience in designing acoustic transducers, piezoelectric sensors, nonlinear dynamics modelling and testing, aircraft fault analysis, condition health monitoring, electrical power systems and electrified propulsion for aviation.

Bahareh was a chair at IEEE/AIAA Electrified Aircraft Technology Symposium joint with AIAA Aviation, USA 2023. She was an invited panellist and panel moderator at AIAA Propulsion and Energy 2021. She led a working group on electrified aircraft power distribution and management for AIAA, and has contributed to the hybrid electric propulsion roadmap as part of FutPrint50 project.  Bahareh is currently a conference coordinator for Electrified Aircraft committee, part of IEEE Transportation Electrification Council.

Current projects

  1. Acoustic sensing for temperature, flow pressure and velocity measurement
  2. Aircraft Electrification: Electrical machines co-design

Research activities

1. Methodologies to improve efficiency of new aircraft engines, sustainable electric generators, remote sensing in harsh environment, and energy harvesting:

She has worked as a researcher in several national and international projects, including a) FutPrint50, investigated the design methodologies of hybrid-electric aircraft in a class of up to 50 seats (Horizon, year 2021-2023), b) EnabEl, built and flew the first fully electric British aircraft (Innovate UK, year 2021-2023), c) I2BS, developed an intelligent bearing sensing system for ball bearing faults and failure (Horizon2020, Clean Sky 2, year 2017-2021), d) EnABLES, European Infrastructure Powering the Internet of Things, where she designed and built a switched reluctance generator and a flexible wearable wireless power and data transfer system (Horizon2020, year 2019-2021). 

2. Nonlinear dynamic modelling and temperature mapping with acoustic transducers:

She demonstrated the design of a parametrically excited nonlinear dynamic system on an experimental test rig with electromagnets as part of her PhD research (year 2012-2017). She has been contributing to creating analytical models and building experimental set ups for nonlinear dynamic systems, to study stable and unstable solutions, since 2012 through her publications. She has demonstrated the novel use of acoustic transducers: on accurately estimating temperature on nozzle guide vanes for aircraft engine (year 2017-2022) and temperature mapping with machine learning on printed circuit boards (year 2022-2024), and corrosion in gas pipes (year 2011-2012).

Bahareh鈥檚 industrial collaborations: KISTLER on piezoelectric sensors, iNetic design of electrical machines, PALL Aerospace on temperature sensing of nozzle guide vanes for aircraft engine, Safran on aircraft engine sensing and health monitoring, ARUP on acoustic measurement for urban air mobility, Embraer on defining aircraft propulsion, and BAE systems on propulsion systems for sustainable aviation, and many more companies.
