  • Abstract
    Do you do research in power electronics? Are you a professor or graduate student in a university or an engineer in an industrial research laboratory? Power electronics research is not different from any other area of engineering or scientific research. For doing research, we discipline and dedicate our mind to make inventions or generate new knowledge that helps to solve our problems and contribute to the advancement of our civilization in a broad perspective. The sincerity, purity, and tranquility of our mind, possibly blended with some spirituality, help us concentrate our mind for doing research. Research accomplishment gives supreme satisfaction of mind. Note that doing research and learning always go together. Learning is essentially a lifelong process. Albert Einstein said that we cease to learn only when we die.
