Additive Manufacturing: Emerging Opportunities for Microwave Components

Room: S-202, Escuela Politécnica, Universidad Alcalá de Henares, Alcalá de Henares, Madrid, Spain

Cristiano Tomassoni, DML lecture - Title: "Additive Manufacturing: Emerging Opportunities for Microwave Components" - Place: Escuela Politécnica, Universidad de Alcalá, Sala S-202 Abstract: The Additive Manufacturing (AM) technology, also known as 3D-printing technology, offers several interesting and attractive features, including fast prototyping, geometry flexibility, easily customizable products, and low cost (in some cases). However, using such technologies for microwave devices is not straightforward as AM has not been specifically developed for microwave devices, and in most cases, some adaptation and post-processing is necessary. Furthermore, there are many AM technologies available, and it is important to understand their characteristics before selecting one. In the presentation, an overview of the different AM technologies available will be provided. Additionally, an analysis of some of the most common AM technologies used for the manufacturing of microwave components will be conducted in more detail, with the help of several examples. Several microwave components manufactured with some of the most popular AM technologies will be shown, along with a detailed description of the manufacturing process, post-processing, and all actions necessary to make the component perform well. Furthermore, it will be shown how the flexibility of this technology allows the development of new classes of components with non-conventional geometries that can be exploited to obtain high-performing components in terms of compactness, weight, losses, etc. Speaker(s): Cristiano Tomassoni, Room: S-202, Escuela Politécnica, Universidad Alcalá de Henares, Alcalá de Henares, Madrid, Spain

Directiva europea NIS2. Impacto en la industria y su cadena de suministro

EOI Business School, Avenida de Gregorio del Amo 6,, Madrid, Madrid, Spain

El grupo de Ciberseguridad de la Sección Española del IEEE, en colaboración con ISA España y otros expertos del sector, organiza una reunión técnica sobre la nueva Directiva NIS2 y sus implicaciones en la industria. Este evento está dirigido a profesionales de ciberseguridad, responsables de continuidad de negocio, y personal técnico interesado en la seguridad de redes y sistemas en entornos industriales. La Directiva NIS2, publicada por la Unión Europea, actualiza los requisitos de ciberseguridad en toda la UE para mejorar la protección de infraestructuras críticas. Entre sus áreas clave, se incluyen análisis de riesgos, resiliencia, gestión de proveedores y criptografía, elementos que exigen nuevas estrategias y metodologías en las organizaciones. En esta sesión, revisaremos los principales puntos de la directiva y exploraremos los impactos más relevantes para las empresas, desde la perspectiva tanto de fabricantes como de usuarios finales. La reunión incluirá una presentación general sobre NIS2 y dos mesas redondas, donde expertos debatirán sobre la implementación de medidas de seguridad en productos y servicios, la percepción de la industria sobre el riesgo en la cadena de suministro, y el desafío de notificación de incidentes en plazos cortos.

IEEE PES ESPAÑA | | Synchronization in low-inertia power systems

Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/442818

IEEE PES ESPAÑA | | THE ENERGY TRANSITION | Towards a DECARBONIZED ENERGY | Synchronization in low-inertia power systems Estimados Miembros del Capítulo IEEE PES ESPAÑA y de la comunidad de sistemas eléctricos de potencia, Dear IEEE PES Spain Members and Colleagues from power and energy community, Continuing with the series on the topic LA TRANSICIÓN ENERGETICA | Hacia una ECONOMIA DESCARBONIZADA THE ENERGY TRANSITION | Towards a DECARBONIZED ECONOMY The energy transition towards a decarbonized economy will present a relevant challenge and a crucial transformation faced by our Society; Decelerating climate change effects is becoming a moral commitment. As a society, we are part of the decarbonized energy process that goes through the electrification of the economy and it is supported by renewables within a sustainable energy model. This means a change of paradigm which heads towards an immediate exciting future full of challenges at all levels associated with flexibility in its widest conception. It is assumed that a change of paradigm, that requires changing the focus from active based asset management towards the digitalization that ensures resiliency and security for the future electric systems. In this context, we need to contribute and stimulate the exchange of ideas from different perspectives and experiences, creating a framework of reflection through these series of webinars. The expected benefit and impact is the identification of opportunities within the complexity associated with the change of paradigm. En este webinar, Federico Milano (University College Dublin) nos hablará sobre un nuevo mecanismo de sincronización en sistemas eléctricos de baja inercia. Título: Synchronization in low-inertia power systems Contenido: Synchronization generally refers to the ability of a power system to keep a common frequency across the whole grid. This is a direct consequence of the behaviour of synchronous machines, which can be in steady state only if their rotor speed is synchronous with the frequency of the grid. This seminar introduces a different approach to define the local synchronization of power systems devices. The starting point is the difference between the “complex frequency” of the voltage and current injected at terminals. Complex frequency is novel concept recently proposed by the presenter and that include information on both phase and magnitude rate of changes of voltages and currents. Formal definitions are provided to account for bounded and asymptotic local synchronization. These definitions are suitable for modern power systems as they remove classical assumptions limiting the application of the concept of synchronization to synchronous machines and omitting voltage dynamics. The paper also provides a systematic analytical description of the synchronization mechanisms of common power system devices. The seminar blends theory and a variety of examples that illustrate the practical application of the proposed definitions to power systems modelling and stability analysis. Ponente: Federico Milano (University College Dublin) Fecha: Martes 19 de noviembre de 2024 Hora: 18:00 - 20:00 (CET) Idioma: Castellano La participación en estos webinar es abierta a cualquier asistente, incluyendo miembros de IEEE/PES y no-miembros.

Distinguished Lecture by Dr. Nizar Zorba – Are UAVs needed for wider implementation of Terahertz Communications?

Centre Technologic de Telecomunicacions de Catalunya (CTTC), Castelldefels, Cataluna, Spain

Wireless backhaul/fronthaul links are proposed as an alternative for massive deployment of small cells because they are more flexible, easy to deploy, and cost effective as compared to the traditional optical fiber links. High frequency millimetre wave (mmWave) and terahertz (THz) links meet the capacity requirements of next generation communication networks. However, mmWave/THz links suffer from susceptibility to weather conditions and require a line-of-sight (LoS) connection, which is the main hurdle in urban regions. The utilization of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) as a wireless fronthaul hub point between small cells and the core network is the promising solution. These UAV-hubs acting as networked flying platforms (NFPs) provide a possibility of wireless LoS fronthaul link and thus, enable the implementation of mmWave/THz in commercial systems at a fast pace, and is expected to boom in the next years. In this talk we will start with a literature review on the chronological order for mmWave/THz communications, Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS), UAVs and multihop technology with the objective to introduce the different technologies that will merge to solve the challenges faced by Terahertz communications. Along the whole talk, we will highlight the different technologies that enable the tackled scenario, together with the comparison to the different proposals from the literature/industry to deal with such scenario.
