(WT_D5) LESSONS LEARNED FOR HIGH VOLTAGE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS IN AVIATION
Friday, August 7 at 8:30 AM - 5:00 PM
Room: Coronado C
| | |
Chair: Cong Li, GE Aerospace
Co-Chair: Niek Moonen, Universiteit Twente
This tutorial provides a comprehensive examination of lessons learned from recent aviation electrification projects. It addresses critical issues such as high-speed switching noise from motor controllers, HV cable insulation degradation, and the evolving requirements of RTCA DO-160G (and the upcoming DO-160H) and MIL-STD-461G for HV architectures.

(WT_V2) EMC IMPLICATIONS IN MANNED AND UNMANNED VEHICLES – AUTONOMY IN AUTOMATIVE AND OTHER INDUSTRIES
Monday, August 3 at 1:30 PM – 5:00 PM
Room: Cortez C
| | |
Chair: Garth D’Abreu, ETS-Lindgren
Co-Chair: Robert Kado, Stellantis US
Co-Chair: Craig Fanning, Elite Electronic Engineering, Inc.
In this tutorial, speakers will provide an update on the latest development in the automotive EMC standards, look at other standards and their use for other types of vehicles, and discuss options and other initiatives under consideration. We will also hear from manufacturers on the challenges that they face, and solutions that test equipment manufacturers are working on to help manufacturers meet their performance goals.

(WT_06) RECENT ADVANCES IN NUMERICAL ANALYSIS TECHNIQUES FOR LIGHTNING TRANSIENTS IN POWER SYSTEMS AND ELECTRIC FACILITIES
Wednesday, August 5 at 1:30 PM – 5:00 PM
Room: Coronado D
| | |
Chair: Akiyoshi Tatematsu, Central Research Institute of Electric Power Industry
Co-Chair: Fernando Silveira, Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais
Lightning strikes may cause damage of power equipment and malfunction of electronic devices, and numerical analysis is essential for predicting transient phenomena and designing effective countermeasures to suppress overvoltages and prevent failures and disturbances of power equipment and electronic devices. This workshop will provide a comprehensive overview of recent advances in numerical transient analysis for lightning phenomena in power systems and related facilities. The objectives are (i) to present cutting-edge full-wave and circuit-theory-based simulation methodologies for lightning transients, (ii) to illustrate their applications to real-scale power transmission, distribution, and renewable-energy installations, and (iii) to highlight emerging techniques that enhance modeling accuracy, computational efficiency, and practical engineering applicability.

(WT_M3) NANOTECHNOLOGY AND ADVANCE MATERIALS FOR AEROSPACE EMI/EMC/E3
Friday, August 7 at 8:30 AM – 5:00 PM
Room: Coronado D
| | |
Chair: Marina Koledintseva, The Boeing Company
Co-Chair: Nika Amralah, Department of National Defence
There is currently significant interest in the design and application of nanomaterials and other advanced materials for aerospace technologies. These materials offer innovative solutions to numerous challenges in aerospace engineering, including electromagnetic interference (EMI) control, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) at the system level, and protection against electromagnetic environmental effects (E3). In this workshop, presentations will focus on the physics, fabrication technologies, characterization, and EMI/EMC/E3 applications of advanced materials, including nanomaterials, metamaterials, advanced magnetic materials, and composite materials. These novel materials possess unique electromagnetic, mechanical, thermal, and other properties that are important for aerospace engineering applications. They show great promise for the design of EMI shielding and filtering structures, as well as electromagnetic wave absorbers for next-generation aerospace systems.

(WT_D6) 5G AND FRONTIERS OF MEDICAL DEVICES
Friday, August 7 at 8:30 AM – 12:00 PM
Room: Coronado B
| | |
Chair: Susanna Mosleh, National Institute of Standards and Technology
Co-Chair: Mohamad Omar Al Kalaa, Inovectrum
We will bring together medical device EMC/coexistence engineers, test labs, wireless and system engineers, device manufacturers, and regulators for a technical discussion of what is changing, where failures tend to hide, and how to validate robustness without over-testing or chasing unrealistic cases.
