Events Presented Events Aug 28 - Sep 3, 2022 Towards Sustainable Cities: Enabled by City Scale Digital Twins Shehab Ahmed, Professor, Electrical and Computer Engineering Aug 28, 12:00 - 13:00 B9 L2 H1 Towards Sustainable Cities The remainder of the talk will focus on an ongoing effort to assess a city’s ecological impact through city scale digital twins. Jan 23 - Jan 29, 2022 Towards Compact Grid Interactive EV Charging Shehab Ahmed, Professor, Electrical and Computer Engineering Jan 23, 12:00 - 13:00 KAUST Towards Compact Grid Interactive EV Charging After a quick overview of the ECE Graduate Seminar logistics, I will share the progression of our team’s work in the field of compact integrated on-board EV charging. Aug 29 - Sep 4, 2021 Dark Vision: A Sensory Eye into Subsurface Wellbore Casings Shehab Ahmed, Professor, Electrical and Computer Engineering Aug 29, 12:00 - 13:00 KAUST Dark Vision Sensory Eye Subsurface Wellbore After a quick overview of the ECE Graduate Seminar logistics, I will share a quick introduction to the wellbore construction process. This will help build the case for maintaining wellbore integrity in order to protect assets, people, the environment and production. The synergistic integration of electromagnetics, electronics and machine learning to create a novel mechatronic solution to address wellbore integrity needs is then discussed. The solution utilizes a full maxwell equations solver deployed on KAUST’s super computing platforms to enable next generation physics informed wellbore integrity solutions based on non-contact EM field propagation circuits. While downhole camera technologies are used today, they require illumination and an optically clear environment. Our electromagnetic ‘vision’ system overcomes these limitations and provides additional capability to ‘see through’ nested wellbore tubulars. Jan 31 - Feb 6, 2021 Mechatronics: Synergy throughout Systems Shehab Ahmed, Professor, Electrical and Computer Engineering Jan 31, 12:00 - 13:00 KAUST Mechatronics Synergy throughout Systems Actuators, electric vehicles, renewable energy systems, oil rigs and smart cities are all examples of complex systems that have evolved over time to better address societal needs. Mechatronics, the synergistic integration of electrical, mechanical and computing, has powered this evolution and enabled higher power density actuators, increased hosting of renewable energy in power grids, improved drilling efficiency and responsive cities. In this talk, I will share research highlights from the Mechatronics and Energy Systems Research Group (MERGE) to demonstrate value creation through engineered synergies. Apr 19 - Apr 25, 2020 Near Field Wireless Power Transfer: Circuits and Application Shehab Ahmed, Professor, Electrical and Computer Engineering Apr 19, 12:00 - 13:00 KAUST Near Field wireless Power Transfer Recently, wireless power transfer has been used in mobile phones, electric vehicles, medical implants, wireless sensor networks, unmanned aerial vehicles, and so on. In this seminar, we will walk through circuit theory and simulations that illustrate the nature and constraints of the technology. We will also address contemporary topics related to application of wireless power transfer in electric vehicle applications.
