https://ece.ncsu.edu/seminar/benefit-of-grid-edge-synchronized-measurements/

The talk will provide an overview on the effort of power grid wide-area monitoring and observations that were made possible from the grid edge synchronized data.  The critical roles of wide-area phasor measurement in situation awareness, operation, and control will be discussed. The concept of electromechanical wave propagation in power grid will be demonstrated using...

Speaker: Yilu Liu

Approximately 19 million people in the U.S. suffer from coronary artery disease. Intervention in coronary artery disease requires minimally-invasive procedures, guided by imaging techniques that expose patients and physicians to ionizing radiation while providing only 2D images to navigate complex 3D anatomy. Three novel systems developed in our lab to provide imaging in different stages...
