TECHNICAL PROJECTS
AC Network Analysis & Power Systems Modeling | Winter 2026
- Sinusoidal Steady-State Analysis: Utilize phasor-domain techniques to analyze single-phase AC circuits, calculating real, reactive, and apparent power ($S = P + jQ$).
- Three-Phase Systems: Apply circuit analysis to Wye and Delta configurations to determine line/phase voltage, current, and total system power.
- Frequency Response & Filters: Design and analyze passive RLC filters (low-pass, high-pass, band-pass) by evaluating the frequency-dependent impedance of inductive and capacitive components.
- Magnetic Coupling: Model mutual inductance and transformer characteristics to solve complex power distribution problems.
- System Implementation: Execute full-cycle engineering projects from formal specification through implementation and testing to verify performance against design requirements.
- Multidisciplinary Collaboration: Coordinate with team members to document system logic and present technical findings, ensuring effective professional communication.
