This presentation discusses the engineering methods used to calculate and mitigate short circuits in electrical design. It includes a brief overview of what short circuits are, their causes, and the related technical theory. The design stages for calculating short circuit levels are explored, followed by different strategies to reduce short circuit levels. The importance of considering code requirements and electrical safety implications is emphasized, along with practical design implications such as cost, material sourcing, lead times, and the physical size constraints of the components. The presentation concludes with a comparison of the various strategies discussed, highlighting the advantages of each method and the specific cases for how and when they can be <a href="http://applied.Co-sponsored" target="_blank" title="applied.Co-sponsored">applied.Co-sponsored by: IEEE Canadian Atlantic Section PES/IAS Chapter/Dr. Hamed AlySpeaker(s): Patrick Oldfield, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/443570

This two-hour workshop will present open-source robotics platform, Lily∞Bot, including hardware, software and electronics. These robots are designed accessible, inclusive and flexible to grow with the user from novice to expert. This is accomplished with extensive online learning resources, battery modules, and controller modules for platforms such as Micro:Bit, Circuit Playground Express, Arduino, and Raspberry Pi Pico W. There will also be a discussion of how an open-source robot may be used to meet some of requirements of the IEEE Standard for Networked Smart Learning Objects for Online Laboratories. This is an interactive workshop with a hands-on component using a physical robot for in person participants. Finally, the workshop will end with a survey or brainstorming session on how participants could use the Lily∞Bot to meet their engineering education goals and/or the IEEE Standard for Networked Smart Learning Objects for Online Laboratories (IEEE Std 1876™-2019).Speaker(s): Hamadou, Luis Felipe, CarlottaAgenda: 8:00 AM – 8:10 AM Welcome and Introduction and Brief presentation of the IEEE Virtual Graduate Study Consortium Initiative (Prof. Hamadou Saliah-Hassane)8:10 AM – 8:20 AM IEEE Education Society Standards Developments (Dr. Luis Felipe Zapata Rivera)8:20 AM – 10:20 AM Practical activity Robotics for the Streets (Dr. Carlotta Berry)Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/442085

This Mini-Symposium aims to gather leading experts to discuss the implementation and implications of recent advances for reliability analysis and maintenance planning, specifically the integration of predictive maintenance, AI, digital twins and other related topics. There is much exciting new research on Digital Twins and AI that is making fundamental advancements in reliability and predictive maintenance.

Now-a-days antennas have become an integral and important part of almost any wireless communication system. In the field of antenna engineering, theoretical analysis is of paramount importance in understanding the basics of the antenna radiation characteristics. While the basic concept of antennas is well known, closed form, exact analytical solutions to many antenna problems are not practical and impossible in many cases. Advances in electromagnetic (EM) simulations have significantly impacted the antenna design process by providing exact solutions by solving Maxwell’s equations using numerical methods. It is a common practice now in academia and industry to use various commercially available EM simulation tools for antenna design process. In this talk, we will introduce basics of antenna modeling and simulation process with pros and cons of various numerical methods, such as Method of Moments (MoM), Multilevel Fast Multipole Method (MLFMM), Finite Element Method (FEM), Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD), Physical Optics (PO), Ray Lunching Geometrical Optics (RL-GO), and Uniform Theory of Diffraction (UTD). We will then discuss modeling and simulation of various antenna types, starting from simple configurations such as dipoles and loops and eventually leading to more complicated and practical designs such as microstrip patches and high-gain reflector <a href="http://antennas.This" target="_blank" title="antennas.This">antennas.This webinar will be followed by a second webinar on December 9th (2PM Eastern) with live demonstrations of Feko for antenna simulations by Mr. Gopi Gampala, Senior Member IEEE, Manager Global Technical Team, Altair. Mr. Gampala will introduce Altair Feko user interface (CADFEKO and POSTFEKO) followed by live demo of the Feko to show case simulation of different antennas and application of various solver technologies explained in Webinar on Nov 19th.
