Ismo Veikko Ilmari Lindell (born 23 November 1939) is a Finnish electrical engineer and academician, who is a professor emeritus at Aalto University. Born in Viipuri, Lindell received his doctoral degree in 1971 from Helsinki University of Technology, where he served as Professor of Electromagnetic Theory and founding director of the Electromagnetics Laboratory until his retirement in 2005. From 1996 to 2001, he was a professor of Academy of Finland, and previously held visiting researcher positions at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Zhejiang University.[1][2]
In 1990, he was named as Fellow of the IEEE for "contributions to electromagnetic theory and for the development of education on electromagnetics in Finland."[3] In 2005, he received the International Union of Radio Science Balthasar Van der Pol Gold Medal "for the development of new methods and solutions in electromagnetic field theory and for exceptional didactic skills."[4]
