This webinar will delve into various aspects of distributed loads, including different load modifiers considering both temporal and spatial aspects. We will look at their fundamental principles and operations to their real-world applications. It will feature presentations and insights from experts in the field, offering participants a comprehensive understanding of the following key areas: - Definition, types, and functions of new Distributed loads - The role of DLCs in modern grid systems – electrification - Benefits and Challenges: - How these loads drive the discussion around resilience - Challenges and potential solutions - Potential to support renewable energy integration and demand response. - Case studies showcasing a planning example. By participating in this webinar, attendees will gain valuable insights into the transformative potential of distributed load changers in modern distribution systems. Whether you are an industry professional, researcher, policymaker, or enthusiast interested in the future of power distribution, this event promises to be a rich source of knowledge.

Rare-earth-based quantum magnets are presently of significant interest, offering a new path to realize exotic states of matter such as spin liquids via the route that is alternative to the geometric frustration. I will provide a heavily biased, but historical overview of the context. Title will be explained. Stories will be told.

M.S. and Ph.D. students are encouraged to submit abstracts in the topics of Antennas, Microwaves, Circuits, and Electromagnetics. Selected abstracts will be invited for poster presentation during the event. Posters will be evaluated by experts, and awards will be presented to winners. Topics of interest include, but not limited to: antennas (analysis, design, development, measurement, testing); radiation, propagation, and interaction of electromagnetic waves with media; photonics & novel materials; circuits, sensors, devices and systems; and applications pertinent to the above topics. Poster Presentation: Each participant will have 10 minutes for each round of judging to present their poster and answer questions. Best posters will be identified based on their content, significance, originality, presentation, and overall recommendation. Up to four winners will be acknowledged with Best Poster Certificates and will receive monetary awards. Registration: The competition registration and abstract submission deadline has been extended through October 27, and can be done through the IEEE AP-S / MTT-S Columbus Chapter website.

Overview of Career Growth Series 2023 This is the third of four monthly meetings starring pre-recorded webinars whose focus are technical career enhancement. These webinars were recorded in 2022 and are available at https://ieeeusa.org/calendar/career-webinars/. However these meetings provide an opportunity to discuss the webinar with other attendees (and enjoy a light refreshment during the meeting.) The discussion part will be available for remote attendance. Presentation Problem solving is at the core of what engineers do. We strive to make the world a better place. We do so by tackling tough challenges or opening up whole new possibilities from innovative ideas and inventions. No doubt you already have excellent problem-solving skills that you need to earn your engineering degree and to flourish in your job. In this webinar, we’ll engage with key approaches to problem solving such as rigorously defining the problem statement, root cause analysis, abstraction, analogy, brainstorming, trial and error, divide and conquer, and lateral thinking. Honing this skill will help you deliver much richer, better solutions to real-world challenges.
