Biography

Akihiro Ametani (Life Fellow, IEEE) received the Ph.D. degree from the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology, Manchester, U.K., in 1973 and the D.Sc. degree from the University of Manchester, Manchester, U.K., in 2010. From 1976 to 1981, he was with Bonneville Power Administration, Portland, Portland, OR, USA, to develop Electromagnetic Transients Program. He was a Professor with Doshisha University, Kyoto, Japan, until March 2014, and with Polytechnique Montréal, Montréal, QC, Canada, from 2014 to 2018. He is currently a Professor with the University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, MB, Canada. From 2011 to 2014, he was the Chairman of the Doshisha Council.
