About

Professor Weixiang Shen received his BEng., MEng., and PhD degrees all from Electrical Engineering. He worked in several universities as a Lecturer, Associate Professor and Research Fellow in China, German, Singapore and Malaysia. Currently, he is a Professor at School of Engineering, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, Australia.

Professor Shen’s research interests are (1) battery applied research and control strategy for electric vehicles (EVs), including battery capacity estimation, battery charging, battery sorting and balancing, end of life battery repurposing, battery fault diagnosis, battery safety under impact, battery energy and thermal management as well as EV control, (2) integration of EVs and renewable energy systems (e.g. solar photovoltaic systems and wind systems) into power systems, including the smart use of EV batteries as an energy storage system in power systems (e.g. smart grid) and the analysis and improvement of system stability for power systems integrated with renewable energy systems. In these areas, he has published more than 150 papers in referred journals and conference proceedings, one monograph "Advanced battery management technologies for electric vehicles" and a few book chapters (Google Scholar).

Professor Shen is an Associate Editor of IET Power Electronics, Editor Board Member of Journal of Energy Storage and founding Board Member of journal Vehicles. He guest-edited several special issues for Applied Energy, Journal of Cleaner Production and Energy. He has also served as a conference organizing committee member, session chair and track chair for a few international conferences, such as The IEEE International Conference on Industrial Electronics and Applications (ICIEA). He was a general chair of the International Conference on Energy, Ecology and Environment (ICEEE2018) held in Melbourne, Australia, 2018, and a program chair of international joint conference on Energy, Electrical and Power Engineering (CoEEPE2023), Melbourne, Australia, November 22-24, 2023.
