Yannal Nawafleh's research focuses on the development and design of solid-state circuit breakers (SSCBs) for direct current (DC) power systems. His work addresses protection challenges in low, medium, and high voltage DC grids, investigating methods to minimize conduction losses and improve efficiency. Nawafleh has published on multi-port SSCB designs utilizing silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFET modules, exploring bidirectional capabilities and fault optimization strategies. His recent publications also include research on hybrid circuit breakers combining solid-state components with traditional surge protection devices like gas discharge tubes and metal oxide varistors. Nawafleh collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Xiaoqing Song, Daixin Chen, Mohammad Dehan Rahman, and Yue Zhao, with whom he has co-authored multiple publications.
