- Title:
- Predictive Engineering
- Date:
- November 30th
7:00 PM (1 hour) - Abstract:
Engineers traditionally use deterministic modeling in their tasks, but challenges for developing and optimizing products and processes inspire us to venture beyond deterministic to probabilistic or stochastic modeling. The melding of engineering modeling with probabilistic thinking empowers engineers to develop confidence for ourselves, our customers and regulatory agencies that our products are likely to be successful and that we will flawlessly meet or exceed expectations over a comprehensive range of use conditions. Predictive engineering starts from measurable system level requirements, exploration and documentation of use conditions, and expanding on deterministic models with probabilistic modeling using Monte Carlo Simulation or Bayesian Networks to optimize the design and process. Probabilistic and stochastic modeling has provided competitive advantages for enterprises, for products, and for both experienced engineers and engineers early in their careers.
Event is organized by IEEE Hawaii YP, IAS, and WIE and co-hosted with several other organizations. Depending on the level of interest in this event, a follow on series with Six Sigma certification is possible.

- Transistor Diversity: Looking Beyond CMOS to Improve Analog Performance (Commemorative Lecture)
- Date:
- December 1st
3:00 PM (1.5 hours) - Location:
- Qualcomm AZ Auditorium
San Diego, CA - Abstract:
Abstract:
While CMOS transistors came to dominate integrated circuits, some other transistor types such as the bipolar junction transistor (BJT); its variant, the super-beta BJT; the junction gate field-effect transistor (JFET) and laterally diffused metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (LDMOS) continue to thrive in specific applications. The talk will re-visit the discovery of these transistor types, their operating principles and key characteristics and look at circuit examples that benefit from these characteristics. We will look how these transistors have eluded extinction despite their larger feature sizes and process complexities and how they have evolved in modern technologies.

- Title:
- EUROPEAN NETWORK CODE WITH FOCUS ON INVERTER-BASED RESOURCES ~PART 2: REQUIREMENTS FOR GRID-FORMING CONVERTER~
- Date:
- December 4th
10:00 AM (1 hour) - Abstract:
This webinar highlights:
- Approved in 2020 by the European Commission (EC), the Green Deal is a set of policy initiatives with the target of making the European Union (EU) climate-neutral in 2050. The fulfillment of the European climate protection targets under the Green Deal will lead to a reduction in synchronous generation capacity throughout Europe. In Germany, the significant reduction in synchronous generation capacity has already been initiated by the coal phase-out based upon the German act KVBG (“Gesetz zur Reduzierung und zur Beendigung der Kohleverstromung”) together with the exit from nuclear energy. Therefore, synchronous generation capacity will be consistently replaced by converter-based generation to an increasing extent. An idea of a need for Grid Forming capability requirements, which should be implemented in Network Code on Requirements for Grid Connection of Generators (NC RfG), was recognized immediately after its publication in 2016. In the meantime, through projects, national and international working groups with transmission system operators, and stakeholders in Europe, some Grid Forming requirements for Inverter-based Resources and their protentional implementation issues are recognized. A new version of NC RfG with Grid Forming requirements is planned to be published in 2024.
- The target of the webinar is to provide information about the latest activities on NC RfG update status in the EU, specifically focusing on grid-forming converters.

- Round table - role of AI in engineering education - initial experiences and plans
- Date:
- December 6th
12:30 PM (1.5 hours) - Location:
- Fourth Avenue Building (FAB)
Portland - Abstract:
AI (artificial intelligence) tools such as ChatGPT started to be widely used only a year ago and are already causing a major rethinking of how we do various aspects of higher education. They have caused alarm with respect to their potential to enable "cheating" but many faculty and institutions believe they can also provide many benefits to our students. So, where are we in this regard? AI as friend or foe? This round table is meant to start a conversation on this topic and could be expanded into more focused talks later on.
All are invited to participate in this discussion but please let the organizer (Branimir Pejcinovic, pejcinb@pdx.edu) know that you will participate.
Office of Academic Innovation (OAI @ PSU) will provide a brief background on what is going on at PSU. The rest of the agenda is open at this time, but I would suggest that all participants prepare a couple of slides addressing, for example:
- your personal "key takeaways" on AI uses/impact - pros/cons - if you have used AI tools in your courses, give the context and initial experiences; for example, using AI to detect essays written by AI, or asking students to summarize a (research?) topic using AI tool(s), etc. - favorite use-case example, illustrated with a prompt and AI reply The meeting will be in hybrid mode, i.e. both in person at PSU and online via Zoom. Therefore, it will be possible to share your slides via Zoom. In the end, it would be nice if we can: a) have a list of tools that have already been used and how well they workedb) identify what we as engineering educators think the potential future uses could be c) identify some ethical issues that have either come up or are likely to come up Hope to see you in person or online!p.s. if you want to find out more before the meeting, here is OAI's website: https://oaiplus.pdx.edu/generative-ai/

- Biodegradable Materials: SJSU Undergraduate Research at EAG
- Date:
- December 7th
11:30 AM (1.8 hours) - Location:
- EAG Laboratories
Sunnyvale, CA - Abstract:
- AbstractThis talk will highlight research efforts of three undergraduate interns at EAG focused on biodegradable materials.- One project involved evaluating a mycelium biocomposite under different weather conditions to determine its feasibility as a replacement for Styrofoam shipping foam. In addition to investigating mechanical and thermal properties, the students also examined chemical and morphological properties using techniques such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).- Another project focused on creating a series of seaweed-based biocomposites using commercially available Spirulina powder and varying amounts of glycerol and silica. The new materials exhibited improved mechanical properties compared to the unmodified polymer. Chemical and thermal properties of the materials were also evaluated using XRF, FTIR and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) to understand the changes in the biopolymer structure with the addition of glycerol and silica.- The last project involved evaluating chemical properties of different kinds of natural seaweed harvested from Monterey Bay. Analytical techniques such as FTIR, XRF and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GCMS) were used to understand the composition of seaweed before and after aqueous extraction.
Dr. Yanika Schneider is a Polymer Scientist and Project Manager at Eurofins EAG and a Adjunct Professor at the Charles W. Davidson College of Engineering at San Jose State University - Department of Chemical and Materials Engineering; Department of Aviation and Technology
BiosketchDr. Yanika Schneider received her Ph.D. from University of California at Santa Barbara in materials chemistry. Her thesis focused on the synthesis and characterization of functionalized polyolefin materials. She then joined UC Berkeley/Lawrence Berkeley National Lab for her postdoc to study the self-assembly of block copolymers containing polymerized ionic liquids. This experience exposed her to more polymer physics-based research as she sought to relate polymer structure to ion transport in proton conducting membranes.- After her postdoc, Dr. Schneider briefly worked at an energy startup helping a small team develop nanostructured carbon-based supercapacitors.- In 2013, she joined Eurofins EAG where she specializes in the characterization of diverse materials using infrared and x-ray fluorescence spectroscopies. She also works as a project manager leading complex multi-technique investigations involving polymer degradation, contamination and deformulations.- Four years ago, Dr. Schneider was invited to develop curricula related to polymer science at San Jose State University. She currently teaches two undergraduate courses (Polymers and Polymer Composites) and a master’s course (Research Methods).

7:10pm - 8:10pm Technical presentation by Prof. Lin Cai - University of Victoria
8:10pm - 9:00pm Networking & More
The fusion of digital and real worlds in all dimensions will be the driving force for future sixth-generation (6G) wireless systems. Ubiquitous in-time and on-time communication services between humans, machines, robots, and their virtual counterparts are essential, and they expand from the ground to air, space, underground, and deep sea. 6G systems are not only data pipelines but also large-scale distributed computing systems with integrated sensing, processing, storage, communication and computing capabilities. It is challenging to build ubiquitous and intelligent 6G systems, handling stringent quality-of-service (QoS) requirements, providing a rich set of communication modes, including unicast, multicast, broadcast, in-cast, and group-cast, and supporting user-centric mobile applications. In this talk, we introduce a new protocol architecture, Self-Evolving and Transformative (SET) architecture that can provide a wide range of control functions, and be intelligently configured for different types of 6G applications and networking environments. Its design principles, potentials, and open issues are discussed. We also introduce a use case applying the architecture to develop a mobility-aware multi-path QUIC protocol for seamless handover in satellite networks.

- Title:
- Embedding Consideration of Weather and Climate into Power System Planning
- Date:
- December 13th
2:00 PM (1 hour) - Location:
- Winston Chung Hall
Riverside, CA - Abstract:
Power system planners have considered the impacts of weather and climate from the design of the first electricity networks. However, this task is growing more complex as power systems become increasingly weather dependent with growing electrification and renewable generation. As a result, power system planners must rise to meet the challenge of re-imagining the future electricity network. This presentation will discuss the importance of embedding consideration of weather and climate throughout the entire planning process. A particular emphasis will be placed on climactic hazards such as wildfires and storms and the implications for power system planning.

Arizona Railway Museum: Turning a Static Display into an Audio Video Exhibit
Abstract:
In addition to its collection of locomotives, passenger cars, freight cars and cabooses, the Arizona Railway Museum has an indoor display area. A central fixture is the console of a Centralized Traffic Control system which controlled Southern Pacific’s single track main line between Tucson, Arizona and Anapra, New Mexico, just outside of El Paso, Texas. Built in the late 1950s and used into the late 1980s the system was a tour de force of electromechanical engineering, but in the museum, it sat dark and quiet. This talk will describe the process of bringing to life its 1153, 14 V incandescent bulbs using modern electronics and some of the best features of the “maker” community to give museum visitors an audio-visual glimpse of how it functioned in its prime.
