Maciej Cichno

Electrical Engineer M.Sc.

present position: assistant in Wroclaw University of Technology

Research Interests ( briefly ):

contact switch phenomena
the Ph.D. dissertation will be
defended in March 1999
I took under consideration specially switching phenomena while breaking heavy inductive load of DC.
I have proved that in some conditions the transient from arc to glow discharge is possible what reduces significantly both the contact erosion as the discharge time as well.

Extensive laboratory work experience

Demonstrated record of high productivity in setting up and running experiments with very limited supervision.
PC based process control , data visualization, data acquisition , data processing
Thanks to the fact that all theoretical results had to be verified and some studies could be carried on only on the base of experimental results I have become proficient in these areas as well.
fault and shock protection
Research works in coal mines which allowed to increase the shock protection in 6 kV sytems

power electronics

 Trials for implementaion of new ideas in 6-20 kV lines improving the fault protection and increasing the shock protection as well. ( The computational analysis have been successful , but because of money limitation the industrial research will be run in future).
