Dr. Fethi Benmebarek is an Algerian electrical engineer, researcher, and Doctor of Science in Electrical Engineering. He publicly defended his doctoral thesis in May 2024 under the supervision of Prof. Lotfi Alloui at Mohamed Khider University of Biskra. His specialization lies in electrical engineering, with a focus on magnetic hysteresis in high-critical-temperature superconducting materials and 3D modeling of superconductors materials.
As a PhD-level researcher, Dr. Benmebarek focuses on the synthesis, characterization, and electromagnetic modeling of superconducting materials, aiming to integrate them into next-generation electrical systems. His key research interests include:

• High-temperature superconductors (HTS) for power transmission (cables and SFCLs)
• Superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES)
• Magnetization of HTS
• Superconducting machines
• Modeling of high-temperature superconductor materials
• Magnetic levitation using HTS
• Non-destructive testing (NDT) using eddy currents (Foucault currents)
• Electrical engineering and materials science

Dr. Benmebarek is committed to bridging the gap between theoretical materials science and practical engineering deployment. He actively collaborates with interdisciplinary teams and seeks to contribute to sustainable, high-efficiency energy technologies.

In parallel with his academic work, he serves as a Principal Study and Maintenance Engineer at Sonelgaz Electricity Production. He is also a Research Engineer at the Laboratoire de Modélisation des Systèmes Energétiques (LMSE) in the Department of Electrical Engineering at Mohamed Khider University of Biskra. His academic profile emphasizes 3D computational electromagnetism, magneto-thermal analysis of high-temperature superconductors (HTS), and industrial power grid safety mechanisms such as superconducting fault current limiters (SFCLs).

He is currently a member of both the editorial and review board of the IEEE Magnetics Letters journal and the IEEE Council on Superconductivity.
