visualization of the first method whileFigure 4(b) shows the second method. In Figure 5 (a) and (b), the red torque-speed curve is thewound-rotor induction motor and the blue is the squirrel-cage induction machine. In theapplication of this new testing method, the second approach was used as the machine under-testwas the wound-rotor induction machine.As can be seen in Figure 5(b), this movement of torque-speed curves results in two uniqueintersection points – one in the stable region and one in the un-stable region of the torque-speedcurves. The unique intersection points in the stable region, from here on referred to as the stablepoint, is utilized for measurements. The stable point provides current, voltage, power input, andspeed in rpm. From these

faculty expressed and interest to expand their educational efforts in this area, but do nothave a clear understanding of how to do so. This paper attempts to document some of those keyelements in the efforts to create, organize and carry out the work efforts required for thesuccessful implementation of this Li-ion cell assembly, testing and characterization effort.2) Background: Between 1976 and 1986, John B. Goodenough developed the theoretical basis and basicoperational characteristics of a Li-ion battery. Later in the 1980s, he comprehensively developedthe Li-ion battery [2]. Li-ion battery technology was quickly embraced and in 1991 Sony Co.employed the first Li-ion battery system in a commercial product [3]. Since the early 2000

MATLAB classification learnertool was utilized to run the simulation. The classifier will train the network. The predictors arethe electrical line current for each phase (A, B, C), the electrical line voltage for each phase (A,B, C) and the energy consumption in kWh. The network is a classification tree type. At the endthe MATLAB tool classify test data into one of two scenarios defined as attack and normaloperation.

This requires developing the workforce of the future which can handle thesecontemporary challenges. Two of the most useful tools when it comes to the analysis of electricpower systems are power flow simulation and fault studies. There are simulators that are providedto universities for educational purposes so that students can learn how to run power flowsimulations and use the results for analysis and design. The problem that the authors have observedis that students need a better intuition on how to interpret the results. This leads to studentsaccepting

Thus, it seems reasonable tosurmise that water's bubble formation behavior on this catalyst closely resembles that ofhydrogen bubble formation on the same surface. While variations in the speed of bubbleformation may occur due to the distinct properties of water vapor and hydrogen gas, thesedifferences are not relevant to the aims of this study. The primary objective here is to develop anexperimental setup, not to measure the actual volume of hydrogen bubbles.

In the second part of this first activity, students are introduced to the concept of energy storage, and they see the benefits that the inclusion of energy storage could have on the electric grid. Specifically, students see how the inclusion of energy storage could allow for increased renewable energy generation due to the variable nature of renewable energy generation. b.

What is the most efficient Clean Energy training/educational method to turn astudent into an employment-ready clean energy technician? And 2. How can career pathways fornew entrants in Clean Energy be made accessible to disadvantaged communities?"Technical training and apprenticeships lie at the intersection of community college training,employment, and workforce development. For engineers, education and work often exist in thequantitative research category. This research used a mixed methods approach
