چکیده: شبکه هوشمند مفهومی است که چشم انداز شبکه های آینده را ترسیم می نماید. در این چشم انداز تبادل دو سویه اطلاعات و انرژی باعث بهبود عملکرد سیستم انرژی شده و سامانه های مخابراتی، فناوری اطلاعات و انرژی امکان همپوشانی و همکاری پیدا می کنند. گسترش شبکه هوشمند در دراز مدت و متکی بر تحول و توسعه در ۴ حوزه تولید انتقال توزیه و مشترکین است. با توجه به گستردگی و مدت زمان طولانی جهت دگردیسی از شبکه کنونی به شبکه هوشمند ضروری است سرمایه گذاری گسترده ای چه از سوی تولید کنندگان انرژی و دولت ها و جه از سوی مشترکین و سازندگان تجهیزات صورت پذیرد. در سطح شبکه های توزیع و مشترکین، ریز شبکه ها مسیر تحقق شبکه های هوشمند هستند. ریز شبکه ها زیر ساخت و چار چوبهایی هستند که امکان یک پارچه کردن منابع تولید پراکنده و سامانه های ذخیره کننده انرژی را در کنار انواع مشترکین از جمله تجاری صنعتی و خانگی فراهم آورده اند. هم اکنون شاهد رشد روزافزون این شبکه ها در اقصی نقاط جهان هستیم. با حضور ریزشبکه ها در سیستم های قدرت مسائل و چالش های جدیدی پیش آمده است. از آن جمله است تقسیم بار بین اجزا ریزشبکه، کنترل ولتاژ و فرکانس ریزشبکه ها، عملکرد Plug & Play (وصل کن کارکن) خودرو های برقی و دگر اجزا در ریز شبکه ها. در این جا چلش دگری در رابطه تحت عنوان حفاضت ریز شبکه ها مطرح می شود.
یک سیستم حفاظتی باید بتواند با حداقل هزینه قابلیت اطمینان سیستم را بالا ببرد. در ریز شبکه ها هدف همین است ولی با تغییر پیکربندی شبکه با چالش های عمده ای نسبت به شبکه های متداول مواجه می شویم. در این سخنرانی به بحث در مورد تفاوت های عمده حفاظت ریزشبکه ها خواهیم پرداخت. مشکلات حفاظتی ریزشبکه ها مطرح خواهد شد. نگاهی به طرح های حفاظتی مطرح خواهیم داشت. در مورد حفاظت تطبیقی بحث خواهیم کرد و نهایتا در انتها در رابطه با امکان کاربرد محدود کننده های جریان (FCLs) اشاراتی خواهیم داشت.

Abstract: Medical robotic systems can make surgical and rehabilitative interventions more efficient, accurate, accessible, and reliable while reducing the burden on health care systems. The need for such robotic technologies stems from the current long wait times for surgeries, therapies and rehabilitation sessions. Surgical, therapeutic, rehabilitation and other medical interventions can be significantly enhanced by utilizing the advantages offered by robots as well as the real-time decision-making capabilities of machines under the direct control, shared control, or supervisory control of medical professionals (surgeons and therapists). In this seminar, Dr. Mahdi Tavakoli, Professor at the University of Alberta, presents various research projects on medical robotics applications in surgery, therapy, rehabilitation, and telemedicine. The goal is to show a range of problems faced in medical robotics research and their solutions spanning instrumentation, imaging, artificial intelligence, and real-time control.

Power Quality in Microgrids- Challenges and Solutions

Abstract: Microgrids (MGs) are deemed as one of the main building blocks of the future smart grids. It is expected that in a near future, smart grid emerges as a well-planned plug-and-play integration of MGs which interact with each other. Providing a premium power quality (PQ) for the customers is one of the main objectives in smart grids. On the other hand, the proliferation of different nonlinear and single-phase loads in electrical systems has resulted in PQ problems such as voltage harmonic and unbalance. Distributed Generators (DGs) are often connected to the utility grid or microgrid through a power-electronic interface converter. Recently, many control approaches are proposed to control the DG interface converters aiming to compensate power quality problems. In this speech, analysis, challenges and compensation of PQ problems in MGs will be addressed through several control architectures.
Main topics are:
- Overview of PQ issues in MGs
- Virtual impedance and admittance for load sharing and PQ improvement
- Secondary Control for Compensation of Voltage Unbalance and Harmonics in Microgrids
- Coordinated control of voltage-controlled and current-controlled converters for PQ improvemen

Flexibility Provision from Energy Systems Integration

Abstract: The growing use of variable renewable energy sources for power generation poses several challenges to the operation of power systems, in particular, supply and demand imbalances. To maintain continuous service in the face of rapid and large swings in supply and/or demand, and mismatch between supply and demand there is a significant need for flexibility (i.e. flexible back-up generation, energy storage and demand side response). There already exist substantial energy storage and demand response potentials within heat and gas systems which can be exploited to support the operation of electricity system and facilitate a cost-effective transition to a low carbon and resilient energy system. To achieve this, efficient integration of electricity, heat/cooling and gas systems across different scales (i.e. demand and supply) is required. This talk will discuss opportunities and challenges of maximising flexibility through energy systems integration.

Smart Cyber-physical Systems (CPS)
سه شنبه ۱۴ مرداد ماه ۱۳۹۹ - ساعت ۱۷:۰۰ – ۱۶:۰۰
Dr. Hadis Karimipour, Assistant Professor
Director of SCPS Lab
University of Guelph-Canada
Abstract: Smart Cyber-physical Systems (CPS) play a major role in today’s societies. The majority of the Industrial Control Systems (ICS), which are used in CPS was developed prior to the Internet era when the security was their last concern. The increased dependence of ICS on the communication network and cyber systems poses significant cybersecurity challenges on online monitoring and control of CPS. A successful cyber-attack on CPS could result in catastrophic loss of life, adverse economic effects and significant harm to public confidence. The “curse of modeling” and “curse of dimensionality” of the current CPS have resulted in the popularity of using artificial intelligence (AI) for different types of analysis, including cybersecurity. In this talk, we will present some recent advances in these areas, including AI-base security analysis in IoT-enabled smart grids and critical infrastructure by proper threat identification, threat hunting, and cyber threat intelligence.
Biography: Dr. Hadis Karimipour is the director of SCPS Lab and an Assistant Professor in the School of Engineering at the University of Guelph. Her research mainly focuses on the application of Artificial Intelligent (AI) and machine learning on the Internet of Things (IoT) and critical infrastructure security. The overall objective of her research is to investigate and overcome the challenges associated with the security, real-time monitoring, and control of the large scale cyber-physical systems using data analytics and machine learning techniques. She is a senior member of the IEEE and IEEE Computer Society. She serves as the Chair of the IEEE Women in Engineering (WIE) and Chapter Chair of the IEEE Information Theory in the Kitchener-Waterloo section.

Transforming Cities: Smart Citizens Populating Smart Cities
پنج شنبه ۱۶ مرداد ماه ۱۳۹۹ - ساعت ۱۱:۰۰ – ۱۰:۰۰
Dr. Somayeh Asadi, Associate Professor
Department of Architectural Engineering,
Pennsylvania State University, USA
Abstract: Cities and communities around the world are entering a new era of transformation in which residents and their surrounding environments are increasingly connected through rapidly-changing intelligent technologies. This transformation offers great promise for improved wellbeing and prosperity but poses significant challenges at the complex intersection of technology and society. In response to this need, we need to accelerate the creation of the scientific and engineering foundations that will enable smart and connected communities to bring about new levels of economic opportunity and growth, safety and security, health and wellness, and overall quality of life. This talk focuses on how buildings, ecosystems, and communities are connected, how to optimize the interactions between different building systems, and how humans use and impact building operations. This includes projects that combine the fields of building science and building technology with the use of smart grid-connected technologies, with the goal of building, operating and maintaining buildings and communities that are smarter, more energy-efficient, and that reduce the peak demands on the electric grid. Becoming a smart city is not a goal but a means to an end. The entire point is to respond more effectively and dynamically to the needs and desires of residents. Technology is simply a tool to optimize the infrastructure, resources, and spaces they share. Smart cities need to focus on improving outcomes for residents and enlisting their active participation in shaping the places they call home.
