Electrical Engineering master’s candidate class presentations
Master’s students in the Acoustical Engineering: Medical Devices (B EE 532) class presented their research findings in a presentation to fellow classmates, faculty, and industry professionals. This class focused on the analysis of advanced applications of diagnostic and therapeutic ultrasound systems to brain and to peripheral tissue. Watch the B EE 532 class presentations.
Optimal integration of electric vehicles (EV) and renewable distributed generation (DG) in distribution micro-grids
Dr. Mahmoud Ghofrani, associate professor, and Nawal Hersi, current Electrical Engineering student, discuss an optimization to address the adverse operational effects of adopting and integrating DGs and EVs too quickly. This talk provides an efficient and reliable method to integrate EVs and renewable DGs in distribution grids. Watch the EV and DG talk.
Low-cost phased array antennas for LEO satellite internet links
Dr. Walt Charczenko, affiliate assistant professor and lecturer, and Cheryl Kung, an antenna engineer pursuing a Master of Science in Electrical Engineering, talk about Cheryl’s independent study focused on designing, testing, and mass-producing millimeter Wave phased array antennas using new low-cost planar circuit board and additive printing techniques. Watch the antenna talk.
Next generation memory technology: a Resistive Random-Access (ReRAM) Memory
Dr. Seungkeun Choi, associate professor and EE program coordinator, and Moosa Raza, MSEE candidate, talk about the fundamentals of a ReRAM device and presents the most recent outcomes researched by Moosa. Watch the ReRAM talk.
