Experience 1980 -1998

Research Assistant/Instructor - Pennsylvania State University, June 1980 - June 1985. During the period of 1980 - 1983 he initiated and conducted experimental plasma/reactive ion etching programs at the Pennsylvania State University. The work characterized gas phase silicon etching involving fluorine donor gases. From June 1983 - June 1985 his research focused on transient atmospheric electromagnetics. Since 1985 (date of appointment to Auburn University's Electrical Engineering Department) he has conducted research into several scientific areas that include: 1) the numerical characterization of diamond and diamond-like films relative to the microelectronic industries needs, 2) characterization of non-linear electrical breakdown about earthen conductors, 3) simulation of lightning induced atmospheric and ionospheric transient electromagnetics, 4) Finite Element analysis of the RF drying of textile materials, 5) numerical analysis of Radar Absorbing Materials (RAM) Dr. Baginski has served as a consultant for the Naval Surface Weapons Center (NSWC) in Dahlgren, Virginia during the summer of 1987 (resided in Fredericksburg, Virginia during this period). His research activities for NSWC included shipboard assessment of the USS Eisenhower's (Aircraft Carrier) TAS radar systems and EMI vulnerability of the ASROC missile system. He has served as an instructor for a short course devoted to EMI problems sponsored by NSWC. Dr. Baginski was awarded a NASA Summer Faculty Fellowship for at NASA Langley (2002) and at NASA Marshall (1988-1989). He has also worked for the US Army in Huntsville, AL. during the summer of 1990 where he was part of a group that characterized the multiple launch rocket system's vulnerability to lightning. Dr. Baginski' has been actively involved with Eglin AFB in the study of detonation devices, non-linear phenomenological modeling of metals under the action of large electric currents (simultaneously solutions of thermodynamic, electromagnetic and plasma equations). He is actively involved in presenting his research at the National and International level and is a member of the IEEE Electromagnetic Compatibility Society's Education Committee, a senior member of the IEEE, a senior member of Sigma Xi, a member of the New York Academy of Sciences, and elected to WHO'S WHO in Science and Engineering 1997 (MARQUIS)
