R Scott Semken, Mechanical Engineering, School of Energy Systems, Lappeenranta University of Technology, Finland
R Scott Semken is a Doctor of Science in Technology working in the School of Energy Systems at the Lappeenranta University of Technology, Finland. He focuses primarily on the mechanical aspects of motor and generator technologies, in particular, permanent magnet synchronous and solid-rotor high-speed induction machines and drives. The unique problems associated with very high power direct-drive wind turbine drivetrains have been an area of recent interest leading to in depth investigations of stator winding cooling and manufacturing approaches and large diameter permanent magnet rotor structures.
