Author Information

Viktor Perelmuter, DSc, earned a diploma in electrical engineering with honors from the National Technical University (Kharkov Polytechnic Institute) in 1958. Dr. Perelmuter earned a candidate degree in technical sciences (PhD) from the Electromechanical Institute Moscow, Soviet Union, in 1967, a senior scientific worker diploma (confirmation of the Supreme Promoting Committee by the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics Council of Ministers) in 1981, and a doctorate degree in technical sciences from the Electrical Power Institute Moscow/SU in 1991. From 1958 to 2000, he worked in the Research Electrotechnical Institute, Kharkov, Ukraine, in the thyristor drive department, during which he also served as department chief (1988–2000). During this time, he developed DC electric drives for rolling mills of various types, including such a specific mill as a planetary mill for rolling sheet metal. Starting with employment of the rotating electrical machines, magnetic and thyristor amplifiers as the exciters, with the advent of powerful thyristors, he carried out the development of thyristor electric drives for reversible and continuous cold and hot rolling mills. He was the head of work on the creation in the USSR of a series of complete thyristor electric drives for rolling mills with a power of up to 12,000 kW.He repeatedly took part in putting power electric drives into operation at metallurgical plants. This work was commended with a number of honorary diplomas. He was also involved as a consultant on problems related to papermaking machines, mine hoists, and conveyors. Between the years 1993 and 2000, he was the director of the joint venture Elpriv, Kharkov. During 1965–1998, he was the supervisor of the graduation works at the Technical University, Kharkov. Dr. Perelmuter was a chairman of the State Examination Committee in the Ukrainian Correspondence Polytechnical Institute from 1975 to 1985. Simultaneously with his ongoing engineering activity, he led the scientific work in the fields of electrical drives, power electronics, and control systems. He is the author or a coauthor of 12 books and approximately 75 articles and holds 19 patents in the Soviet Union and Ukraine. Since 2001, up to Ukraine—Russia war, Dr. Perelmuter had been working as a scientific advisor in the National Technical University (Kharkov Polytechnic Institute) and in Ltd “Jugelectroproject,” Kharkov. He is also a Life Member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.
