Power electronics has evolved in the last 50 years gaining more and more relevance till it becomes a critical technology for the next energy shift for a more sustainable society. One of the latest technological trends concerns the essence of power processing that discloses how the electric power flows through the electronic circuit and components. The so-called partial power processing concept claims to reduce the conversion losses, alleviating the thermal burden of the devices and further enabling the downsizing of converter and component ratings. This seminar provides a unique insight into this technology and also builds a solid base of knowledge for power electronics design trades. Speaker(s): Mario Lucio da Silva Martins, Agenda: 6:00 PM to 6:30 PM - Networking and Light Snacks 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM - Seminar Event Room: EV2.184, Bldg: EV Building, 1515 Saint-Catherine St W, Montreal, Quebec, Canada, H3G 2H7

Tuesday, February 25th, 2025, 12:00 NOON US-Central TOPIC: " Indian Aerospace Paradigm" THIS IS A HYBRID EVENT SPEAKER: Dr Surendra Pal, Life-FIEEE, FNAE, FNASc, Former Vice Chancellor- Defence Institute of Advanced Technology- Pune(India), DRDO Dr. D.S Kothari Chair DG ECS Office Bangalore, Prof. Satish Dhawan Professor, Senior Adviser- Satellite Navigation(ISRO), Distinguished Scientist, Associate Director, Chairman GAGAN -PMB & Prog.Director Sat.-Navigation- URSC(ISAC)-ISRO] , IEEE Fellow PRESENTATION: India will celebrate 50 years after launching its first satellite, ARYBHATA. In the last 50 years, the progress in the aerospace arena, be design and fabrication of satellites, launchers, rockets, missiles or fighter aircraft along with applications in the domain of use of space technology for societal, security and defence has been exponential. Till now, India has launched >537 satellites and 100 satellite launchers. Satellites have been launched for various countries, including the USA, among other countries. The talk is about the journey of the last 50 years and the exponential progress made by India/ISRO and DRDO in the Aerospace Domain.

An antenna can have excellent impedance and radiation characteristics when designed in isolation. However, antennas are never in isolation and the effect of surrounding environment must be considered during the design stage. This makes the in-situ or the antenna placement analysis as important as the antenna design. In this presentation, a complete design life cycle of an antenna will be presented, starting from the standalone design to the in-situ analysis. Speaker(s): Gopinath Gampala, Dr. C.J. Reddy of Altair Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/463847

Did you know that it takes 800kg of raw materials to manufacture a 2kg computer? Come with us to learn in team and in a fun way, the impact of digital technologies on the environment and how to reduce it. In collaboration with TÉLUQ University and EMT IEEE student chapter, we invite you to take part in this fun and collaborative three-hour workshop. The aim of the Digital Collage is to raise awareness and educate participants about the environmental challenges of digital technology. The workshop also aims to explain the broad outlines of actions to be taken to move towards a more sustainable digital environment, and then to open discussions on the subject between participants. The workshop is an opportunity to learn together. The workshop will be at INRS EMT Bonaventure center, March 19th from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. Coffee awaits you during the activity, and pizza at lunchtime! The workshop will be offered in English and French !
