题目:  Recent Research on Memristor based Circuits

报告人： Herbert Iu                                                                         

Abstract:

In this talk, memrsitor (as a fourth circuit element postulated by L.O. Chua in 1971) is introduced. Basic circuit theory of memristor is briefly reviewed and HP memristor is revisited. Some applications of memristor are discussed. A memristor based chaotic circuit is constructed and studied. Also, a universal mutator for transformations among memristor, memcapacitor and meminductor is developed. Finally, dynamic behaviour of coupled memristor circuits will be studied. 

Biography:

Herbert Ho-Ching Iu (S'98--M'00--SM’06) received the B.Eng. (Hons) degree in electrical and electronic engineering from the University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, in 1997. He received the Ph.D. degree from the Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong, in 2000.

In 2002, he joined the School of Electrical, Electronic and Computer Engineering, The University of Western Australia as a Lecturer. He is currently a Professor at the same school. His research interests include power electronics, renewable energy, nonlinear dynamics, current sensing techniques, and memristive systems. He has published over 100 papers in these areas. He served as a Visiting Lecturer at the University of Reims Champagne-Ardenne, France in 2004 and a Visiting Assistant Professor at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong in 2006. He currently serves as a Guest Editor for IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics and IEEE Journal on Emerging and Selected Topics in Circuits and Systems, an Associate Editor for International Journal of Circuit Theory and Applications, International Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos, International Journal of Electronics, IET Power Electronics and IEEE Circuits and Systems Society Newsletters, an Editorial Board Member for Australian Journal of Electrical and Electronics Engineering. He is a co-editor of Control of Chaos in Nonlinear Circuits and Systems (Singapore: World Scientific, 2009) and a co-author of Development of Memristor Based Circuits (Singapore: World Scientific, 2013). He has won the Vice-Chancellor’s Mid-Career Research Award in 2014.

题目: Estimating the Dynamic States of Generators in a Complex Power System

报告人：Tyrone Fernando

Abstract:

Due to significant recent investment in power system infrastructure, PMUs are widely available in power distribution networks. In this talk I will present real time phasor measurement unit (PMU) based monitoring algorithms using different methods and approaches to dynamically estimate the states of generators in a complex power system.  Such algorithms can allow us to develop complementary algorithms for control functions of the power grid. Complete real time knowledge of the state of a power grid provides a complete and a reliable database, based on which, control functions can be reliably deployed in order to analyze contingencies, and to determine any required corrective actions. The talk will be primarily based on the Functional Observer based approach to dynamically estimate the states of generators in a complex power system.

Biography：

Tyrone Fernando obtained his bachelor of engineering with honours and the degree of doctor of philosophy from the University of Melbourne in 1990 and 1996 respectively.

In 1996 he joined the University of Western Australia, School of Electrical Electronic and Computer Engineering where he is currently a Professor. He was the Deputy Head of School in 2009 and 2010. His research interests are in Power system dynamics, functional observers, state estimation, control theory and application of control theory to biomedical engineering.

He has served as an Associate Editor for IEEE Transactions on Information Technology in Biomedicine and also as guest editor for the journal of Optimal Control Applications and Methods. He is currently an Associate Editor for IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems II. He has authored many journal and conference articles and also two books in the areas of functional observers and closed loop control of blood glucose in diabetics. Professor Fernando is a senior member of IEEE.
