Introduction At this age, students have been taught that the best option for them after high school is going to college and getting a four-year degree. This notion, commonly referred to as the 'trade school vs college' debate, has been ingrained by the school system,...
The believe that Education is the most powerful tool that human beings can use to change the world and serve their communities has been instilled in me. It is this conviction and the natural love for science and mathematics that made me believe that Electrical...
Making the world a better place to live in is the dream of any responsible and decent human being. I also do dream about making the world a better place for mankind, and the best place to start, without any contention is Concordia University. The...
Electric cars, Such as Tesla’s and Leaf’s, are all the rage being advertised as a new ‘eco-friendly’ way of car travel. But that may not be the case, as they COULD be as bad as fossil fueling vehicles, if not a tad better, in their...
Having been raised up in an academic teaching environment by my parents, who are mathematics teachers, as well as my early fondness for explaining intellectual concepts to my classmates through elementary school, had founded an immense desire in my character to be a professor after...
The competition between Nikolas Tesla and Thomas Edison to supply electricity to cities in the late 1880s is often called the ‘War of Currents’, as this battle ultimately decided what type of current became the standard for the generation of electricity today. The battle between...
Summary Overall, the electrical engineering work with the design and maintenance of power system that supplies electrical energy. Source of energy for the power system is the burning of fossil fuels. Electrical engineer students study about the design of solar cell at SJSU. Solar cell...
The history of power generation is long and convoluted, marked by myriad technological milestones, conceptual and technical, from hundreds of contributors. This report will look at all the power generation sources conventional and non – conventional from a historic, economic, technological and safety perspective and...
OTDR stands for Optical Time Domain Reflectometer. An OTDR need scattered light in fibers to locate faults traditionally FTTH PON maintenance and troubleshooting is performed through external OTDR equipment. This approach requires new fibers to be connected to the optical Distribution network. It shows that...
A Printed Circuit Board (PCB) is plastic board base that provides mechanical support and medium for electrical connections of various electrical components. The circuits inside the sheet layers are made using strong conducting material such as copper whereas the board is made up of non-conducting...
Analog Signals Analog signals are a representation of time varying in a continuous signal.Analog signals are required to represent real world signal.Analog signals work with natural phenomena and physical values like frequency, earthquake and volcano, flow of water, speed of wind, weight, lighting and many...
An action potential is an electrical impulse that begins at the axon hillock (trigger zone), propagates away from the soma, and moves down the axon, synaptic knob, and synapse. The action potential is triggered by a depolarization of the neuron from -70mV to -55mV. This...
Now a day most of the people do use computers on daily basis for various kind of jobs. Among the computer users most of the users do use the computers for official purposes in office premises only. But, there are a whole lot of people...
Thyristor is a type of diode that allows current to flow if and only if a control voltage is applied to its gate terminal. This kind of diode has three electrodes namely anode, cathode and gate. Thyristors have different working principle depending on its classification....
The set of complex numbers is two-dimensional, and a coordinate plane is required to illustrate them graphically. This is different to the real numbers, which are one-dimensional, and can be shown by a simple number line. The rectangular complex number plane is constructed by arranging...
Before I start the quest of exemplifying my purpose of writing this statement, I would like to give a brief introduction of myself. I am Tasmia Tus Safa, and I completed my BSc degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from North South University in 2017....
Engineers are facing a communication gap like never before. Companies are relying on engineers to put together project pitches and effectively write reports. The problem of today is that engineering students are not being taught these expected skills. Author Ian Skinner, who has graduated with...
