Brief bio for Dr Harvey A Cohen Dr Cohen completed two years of electrical engineering at Sydney University before transferring to the Science Faculty. He then completed a PhD in computational methods in quantum electrodynamics. Following a post-doc at the University of Adelaide he became a senior lecturer originally in Mathematics and later in Computer Science at La Trobe University. His experiences of teaching undergraduate mechanics lead to “loud-thinking” student efforts in qualitative physics, which research lead him to an initial appointment within the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, at MIT, Cambridge Mass, and later on a visiting professorship at MIT. A user of the very earliest microcomputers, he conducted the educational robotics project OZNAKI for 8 years, then developed an early Talking Communicator for severely disabled non-speech children. Over time his AI interests turned to vision, and he researched texture recognition, number-plate recognition, image restoration. He was a listed researcher on the establishment of the CRC for Satellite Systems in 1997. He is a Life Member of the IEEE.

2017.1	Harvey A. Cohen, Energy Harvesting by Satellites Using Electro Dynamic Tethers Workshop Digest, EHMNS 2017, IEEE Workshop, Energy Harvesting Management and Sensor Networks RMIT Melbourne December 13, 2017, pp 20-22. Abstract Abstract— Satellites operating remotely in a hostile environment require significant power resources to function. However orbital speeds are high and near earth orbits pass through plasma belts and through the earth’s magnetic field. Electrodynamic tethers offer scope of taking advantage of these condition with direct harvesting via electrodynamic tethering being the most promising, despite the difficulties encountered in early experimentation.
