The first one is a power system fault study, which includesgenerator, transformers, transmission lines, circuit breakers, and three separate loads includingone 500 HP induction motor. The second case study is an AC/DC power system interactionbased on a proposed 1000 MW High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) transmission line betweenWyoming and California in order to export Wyoming’s rich electrical power resources.Key Words: Power Systems, Curriculum Development, Digital Simulation, and StabilityAnalysis.I.

Approximately 90,000 valve substitutes are now implanted in the UnitedStates and 280,000 worldwide each year; about half are mechanical valves [2]. One reason whythe heart fails is when the natural aortic valve (Figure 1) does not work the way it should. Whilethe prosthetic valve is an efficient and common replacement for the aortic valve, it

However, in the past decade,the elements of DSP design have been integrated into many under graduate engineering and engineeringtechnology programs. To obtain specific information about DSP courses taught in undergraduateelectronics/computer engineering technology programs in the US, the questionnaire was developed andtelephone survey was done to most of the members of the Engineering Technology Division of theAmerican Society for Engineering Education.
