SUMMARY:Predicting and Preventing Malfunctions: A Revolutionary Approach to Condition-Based Asset Performance Management (APM)
DESCRIPTION:The live presentation of this event has already taken place. \nPlease view the PDF slides here or watch the video recording below:\n \nWebinar details\nIn the renewable energy industry\, a single component malfunction can significantly impact the entire network’s performance. Asset failures in solar and wind farms can bring down a whole network of infrastructure\, affecting thousands of customers and decreasing network reliability\, costing hundreds of thousands of dollars. Therefore\, there is a strong imperative to predict and avoid malfunctions in such highly connected systems. Sophisticated reliability models using new Machine Leaning (ML) techniques are proving to be a game-changer for asset performance management. Data and artificial intelligence are being used to predict malfunctions at any future point in time and facilitate the shift to condition than time-based maintenance. Early detection and more precise information can indicate which components or equipment will need to be repaired or replaced and when. This is allowing asset managers to plan maintenance efficiently and avoid unplanned and expensive disruptions. \nIn this webinar\, we outline how machine learning (ML)\, combined with industry expertise\, can estimate the probability of failure for specific failure modes and components. The methodology illustrates a specific failure mode using a large wind farm case study\, where a significant number of component failures occurred within a short space of time. The problem is solved using a two-step solution\, firstly predicting the future probability distribution of a parameter given its current value\, and secondly\, determining the probability of the malfunction given the predicted parameter value. This allows a standardized and more accurate approach for prognosticating malfunctions of technical components\, thus determining their remaining useful life (RUL). \n\nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards.\nA certificate of attendance will be provided to attendees who request one near the end of the live webinar session.\nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in UTC. You will need to convert this to your own time zone.\n\nKey takeaways from this webinar\n\nPower system reliability\nAsset performance management (APM)\nMachine learning and POF prediction\n\nRelated courses\nThis webinar/topic relates to our school of Industrial Automation\, Instrumentation and Process Control and is particularly found in the following courses: \n\n52911WA Graduate Certificate in Internet of Things (IoT) for Engineering (Foundations)\n52886WA Advanced Diploma of Industrial Automation Engineering\n52872WA Advanced Diploma of Robotics and Mechatronics Engineering\nOnline – Bachelor of Science (Industrial Automation Engineering)\nOnline – Master of Engineering (Industrial Automation)\n\nTo learn more about tuition fees\, please click here. \nAbout the presenter\n \nDr. Naser Hashemnia\, EIT Lecturer & Principal consultant at HitachiEnergy  \nNaser is a Principal Power Electrical Engineer (PhD) with over 12 years of experience in developing and analyzing the reliability of electrical networks and conducting system studies for various industries.

SUMMARY:Large-Scale Evaluation of Existing Reinforced Concrete Buildings for Seismic Retrofit
DESCRIPTION:The live presentation of this event has already taken place. \nPlease view the presentation here or watch the video recording below:\n \nWebinar details\nThis study presents an alternative approach to the assessment of earthquake resistance of existing buildings and evaluation of the seismic requirement for a retrofitting process. In order to avoid the assessment of individual components of a building\, we propose evaluating it as a whole object using the nonlinear static pushover analysis. In this procedure\, the elements’ failure appears in the changes of stiffness at every pushover increment and accumulates until the total failure of a whole structure. Earthquake resistance of the building is quantified as a ratio between the total energy that the existing structure can absorb to the energy at its ideal (upgraded) state that can be estimated using the capacity curves obtained by the pushover analysis. The amount of required retrofitting can be then assessed as the rigidity that needs to be added to obtain the desired resistance. \nIn this study\, we establish the definition for the ideal capacity of an existing structure and corresponding safe displacement limits\, a procedure for the derivation of the target capacity curves and the earthquake resistance factor. \n\nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards.\nA certificate of attendance will be provided to attendees who request one near the end of the live webinar session.\nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in UTC. You will need to convert this to your own time zone.\n\nKey takeaways from this webinar\n\nThe stiffening required to achieve the ideal energy absorbing capacity defines the seismic demand.\nThis seismic demand and resistance factor depend on the structural properties of the existing structure and seismic conditions of the building location\n\nRelated courses\nThis webinar/topic relates to our school of Civil Engineering\, particularly found in the following courses: \n\nProfessional Certificate of Competency in Fundamentals of Road Construction\n52873WA Advanced Diploma of Civil and Structural Engineering\nOnline – Bachelor of Science (Civil & Structural Engineering)\nOnline – Master of Engineering (Civil: Structural)\n\nTo learn more about tuition fees\, please click here. \nAbout the presenter\n \nDr. Igor Shufrin\, EIT Lecturer & Course Coordinator – Civil Engineering \nDr Shufrin started his career as a Civil engineer and worked in construction industry for several years in Russia.

SUMMARY:Power Quality Challenges with High Penetration of Renewable Systems
DESCRIPTION:The live presentation of this event has already taken place. \nPlease view the PDF slides here or watch the video recording below:\n \nWebinar details\nPhotovoltaic systems represent a significant source of power generation\, with their production susceptible to fluctuations caused by changing shading conditions resulting from varying weather and environmental factors. While the modular multilevel converter (MMLC) stands out as a promising choice for achieving high power\, the conventional MMLC\, in its quest for more voltage levels\, demands additional cells. This\, in turn\, amplifies complexity and results in increased losses. \nIn this webinar\, we propose the implementation of a hybrid MMLC\, which employs fewer IGBT switches for the same number of output levels\, ultimately reducing losses and enhancing voltage output. The augmentation of power production is realized through the series and parallel connection of half and full bridge cells in the converter configuration. Furthermore\, the converter adeptly addresses power quality issues\, including voltage\, current\, and power\, without the need for active or passive filters. \nDespite these advancements\, fluctuations in input irradiation and temperature introduce disturbances to output parameters such as voltage\, current\, and power. \nMitigating these imbalances in a grid-connected converter is crucial for stabilizing control and ensuring the quality of power injected into the grid. As a solution\, the implementation of zero sequence control (ZSC) is proposed to generate balanced power\, especially when dealing with unstable input parameters. To achieve power balance among the converter phases being supplied to the grid\, zero sequence voltage (ZSV) is injected into each phase of the converter output. This validation process ensures the equilibrium of power among the phases fed into the low voltage grid. \nSimulation results are presented to assess the output parameters both before and after the injection of ZSV in the low voltage (LV) grid-connected Hybrid MMLC of a large-scale PV system. These results demonstrate the improved performance achieved through this approach. \n\nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards.\nA certificate of attendance will be provided to attendees who request one near the end of the live webinar session.\nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in UTC. You will need to convert this to your own time zone.\n\nKey takeaways from this webinar\n\nModelling and implementation of an efficient MMLC converter with hybrid approach for full and half bridge cells arranged in series and parallel for better output performance.\nZSC is used for solving power quality issues that arise during different shading patterns within phases of the converter.\nThe proposed controller scheme satisfactorily handles the variable irradiance values with the MPPT application.\n\nRelated courses\nThis webinar/topic relates to our schools of Electrical Engineering and Renewable Energy particularly found in the following courses: \n\nProfessional Certificate of Competency in Renewable Energy Systems\nProfessional Certificate of Competency in Smart Grids\n52894WA Advanced Diploma of Applied Electrical Engineering (Renewable Energy)\n52859WA Graduate Certificate in Renewable Energy Technologies\nOnline – Bachelor of Science (Electrical Engineering)\nOnline – Master of Engineering (Electrical Systems)\n\nAbout the presenter\n \nDr. Munira Batool\, EIT Lecturer and Postgraduate Supervisor \nDr. Munira Batool is an Online Lecturer\, Unit Coordinator and Postgraduate Research Supervisor in Electrical Engineering Department.

SUMMARY:Optimization of Biomimetic-Based Aircraft Wing
DESCRIPTION:The live presentation of this event has already taken place. \nPlease view the PDF slides here or watch the video recording below:\n \nWebinar details\nThis webinar will discuss the numerical simulations in ANSYS Fluent software to investigate the influence of leading-edge protuberances on the wings of a NACA 2412 cross-section. Various parameters\, including different wavelengths and amplitudes of protuberances\, were explored\, mimicking humpback whale flipper characteristics. The simulations were conducted at a velocity of 65 m/s in a turbulent flow domain with a chord-based Reynolds number of 2.29*105\, using the SST k-ω models. \nThe results revealed notable differences in the aerodynamic performance of wings with leading-edge protuberances compared to smooth leading edges. Wings with protuberances demonstrated a higher lift coefficient (CL) and lower drag coefficient (CD) at the post-stall region. \nTwo specific cases with the best CL and CD after stall angle (16 degrees) were identified for optimization. The optimized wing showcased remarkable improvements in aerodynamic performance over the baseline and other wing configurations. It achieved a 23.33% increase in lift\, outperforming all other defined wings. Furthermore\, it reduced drag by 16% and enhanced the lift-to-drag ratio by 35% compared to the baseline wing. These results show that leading-edge protuberances (LEPs) may be able to improve wing performance after stalling. This research sheds light on the potential benefits of incorporating LEPs in wing design\, offering valuable insights for applications in aerodynamics and bio-inspired engineering. \n\nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards.\nA certificate of attendance will be provided to attendees who request one near the end of the live webinar session.\nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in UTC. You will need to convert this to your own time zone.\n\nKey takeaways from this webinar\n\nFundamental knowledge about 3D simulation in ANSYS Fluent\nFundamental knowledge about the optimization using Minitab software\nIn-depth knowledge regarding the aerodynamic performance characteristics of an aircraft wing\n\nRelated courses\nThis webinar/topic relates to our school of Mechanical Engineering particularly found in the following courses: \n\nGraduate Certificate in Mechanical Engineering\nGraduate Diploma of Engineering (Mechanical)\nOnline – Master of Engineering (Mechanical)\n\nAbout the presenter\n\nDr. Mahadi Masud – EIT Lecturer \nMahadi Hasan Masud received his BSc and MSc in Mechanical Engineering from Rajshahi University of Engineering & Technology (RUET). He is now serving as a faculty member in Mechanical Engineering of RUET. Moreover\, he has received his PhD from RMIT University\, Melbourne\, Australia.
