Many systems have been designed with dependencies such as GPS timing\, data backhaul\, or mobile coverage. How resilient are these systems\, and how can the inclusion of failure modes in the design phase reduce the negative impact of system failures? \nIn 1978\, NASA scientist Donald Kessler proposed that the collision of two satellites could cause a chain reaction from the resulting debris\, potentially rendering Low Earth Orbit (LEO) unusable\, a scenario known as the Kessler syndrome. How would Western society cope with such a situation? \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\nConsider system failure in the risk analysis when designing a system.\nUnderstand that the desire for worldwide 100% data coverage may come at a cost to society as it contributes to space debris.\nRecognize that deliberate (malicious) damage to communications infrastructure may be used as a geopolitical tool by hostile agents\, negatively impacting everyday life.\n\nRelated courses\nThis webinar/topic relates to our school of Electronic Engineering\, particularly found in the following courses: \n\n52867WA Advanced Diploma of Industrial Data Communication\, Networking and IT\nProfessional Certificate of Competency in Project Management for Engineers & Technicians\n52883WA Advanced Diploma of Applied Electrical Engineering (Electrical Systems)\nBSB50420 Diploma of Leadership and Management\nBSB60420 Advanced Diploma of Leadership and Management\n\nAbout the presenter\n \nRob Howes\, Engineering Project Manager at Curtin University \nRob holds a formal qualification in Electronic Engineering.

Take this valuable knowledge back to your workplace and begin the important task of protecting your site from static electricity in accordance with Australian law and standards. \nThis workshop is hands-on. You will see examples of non-compliance specific to static electricity in hazardous area workplaces\, but more importantly\, you will learn how to identify them and apply the appropriate control. \nSee how a typical audit investigation applies specific tests to determine static electricity compliance. See what test equipment is used by the auditor to determine compliance. \nIf you are concerned about static electricity at your workplace or are undertaking a project and would like to better understand the hazard that static electricity presents. Don’t miss this workshop opportunity. \nFor more information about this workshop or to learn more about IDC Technologies Hydrogen Safety & Hazardous Areas Conference in Perth please click here.

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.

For instance\, during peak power generation periods\, an excess of generated power from renewable sources beyond load demand can lead to power system overload\, triggering protection devices. An effective solution to this issue is incorporating energy storage systems. \nThis webinar aims to elucidate various energy storage systems\, primarily focusing on battery energy storage systems. It will comprehensively review diverse battery technologies\, comparing their respective features. Additionally\, a concise examination of power electronic converters\, essential for linking battery energy storage systems to the grid\, will be provided. Finally\, the webinar will delve into an overview of different grid support functions\, including virtual inertia\, peak shaving\, and time shifting. \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\nIntroduction to different types of energy storage systems\nExplanation about battery technology and different types of battery storage systems\nSolutions to support the power system using energy storage systems\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 Battery Energy Storage and Applications\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. Hossein Dehghani Tafti\, EIT Lecturer \nHossein Dehghani Tafti earned his B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees in electrical engineering and power system engineering from the Amirkabir University of Technology\, Tehran\, Iran\, in 2009 and 2011\, respectively.
