SUMMARY:Data Storage in Outer Space: Overcoming the Obstacles
DESCRIPTION:This is a hybrid in-person and online event. Pre-registration is required for either.\nAfter a 50-year hiatus\, multiple countries are racing to be the first to return to the Moon. Lower launch costs are enabling more satellites to be put into low earth orbit\, and data centers in space and on the moon are being planned. In addition\, preparations are afoot for harvesting and mining the moon and asteroids\, as well as for colonizing Mars.\nIt appears that we are on the brink of a new industrial revolution with development beyond our planet\, and reliable data storage and processing will be key requirements to make all of this the new reality. However\, these harsh environments present obstacles that must be overcome for the ambitious plans to become reality.\nIn this talk\, Dr. Tom Coughlin will discuss many of the requirements for this new revolution\, and some of the technologies that look to make this possible.\nSpeaker(s): Dr. Tom Coughlin\,\n925 Thompson Place\, Sunnyvale\, California\, United States\, 94085\, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/562084

SUMMARY:CHEERS OCEANEERS! June 10th\, 2026
DESCRIPTION:CHEERS OCEANEERS! JUNE 10th 2026\nScaling Phytoplankton Observations and Participatory Science at the Ends of the Earth\nJoin us to hear from Biological Oceanographer and Executive Director Dr. Allison Cusick about how she is reimagining the ocean data pipeline by transforming global sea-going travelers into an active network of climate data collectors. Driven by a vision to scale oceanographic data collection and bring science directly to the public\, Allison launched a new 501(c)(3) non-profit\, Plankton Base. This venture builds directly on the 9-year operational legacy of FjordPhyto\, a citizen science program she co-founded and manages. Holding a Scripps PhD\, a StartBlue alumnus with a MicroMBA\, and running her own consulting LLC\, Allison bridges high-level marine research with expedition tourism and participatory science leadership. Come discover how she is expanding this proven framework to build public trust with hands-on engagement and scaling global ocean stewardship. Her work solves critical data gaps at the base of the marine food web—powered by phytoplankton\, the unsung heroes and microscopic engines running our planet\n***\nWelcome to the monthly event for the IEEE Oceanic Engineering Society (OES)\, San Diego Chapter\, which is hosting this meeting jointly along with TMA BlueTech (The Maritime Alliance)\, and MTS (Marine Technology Society).\nPlease join us for the main presentation and also plenty of time for networking and friendly conversation about everything oceanic\, engineering\, science\, Blue Tech\, and more. No need to be an IEEE or OES member\, or TMA\, or MTS. Everyone is invited.\nThis month\, we will be at Quantum Brewing again\, a cool science-themed brewery founded by a biochemist.\nNo ticket required\, but please order something for yourself from the brewery.\nPlease grab a bite from a nearby restaurant\, which is okay to bring into the brewery per the owner.\nThe food and drinks are not being funded by the hosts. Please open your own tab.\nSpeaker(s): Dr. Allison Cusick\nAgenda:\nAgenda:\n5:30pm: Arrival and networking\, order food/drinks for yourself.\n6:15pm: OES and other hosting group announcements.\n6:20pm: Main Presentation\n6:40pm (approximately): “open mic” for any other attendees to present anything they like (ocean-related\, of course).\nExamples: employers presenting opportunities for employment\, job seekers presenting a quick bio\, internship program opportunities\, promoting other events\, seeking funding\, “show and tell” of any cool technology you are working on\, etc.\n*For the open mic portion of the event\, please observe a time-limit of 3 minutes maximum per person. If you want to give a longer presentation\, please ask to be the main presenter for an upcoming monthly event.\n7:00pm to close: enjoy some drinks and chatting with fellow oceanic engineering enthusiasts.\nRSVPs are appreciated for planning purposes.\nBldg: Quantum Brewing\, 5375 Kearny Villa Rd\, #116\, San Diego\, California\, United States\, 92123

SUMMARY:IEEE Central Coast Event 10 June 6 PM @ Rusty's "Modernizing the Grid - The Missing Link"- Speaker: Kalyan Sen PhD
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The use of electricity is increasing rapidly due to the fast adoption of mega-sized data\ncenters\, electric vehicles\, etc. To combat the greenhouse effect\, the generation of renewable\nenergy is also skyrocketing. However\, the other important piece of the puzzle is to transport\nelectricity from where it is generated to where it is used in load centers in the most reliable\,\nefficient and affordable way. The power industry’s pressing need to transfer bulk power along a\ndesired path may be met by building new transmission lines\, which is a long and costly process.\nAlternatively\, it may be quicker and cheaper to identify the underutilized transmission lines and\nharness their dormant capacity to increase the power flows to the lines’ thermal limits by using a\nproperly-designed power flow controller. Also\, the grid congestion can be mitigated by holding\nthe power flow in a line at its design limit\, instead of tripping the line and possibly initiating a\ncascaded failure of the grid as it happened in 2003.\nThe presentation will be of particular interest to all utility power engineering professionals\,\nacademicians and researchers. The audience will hear from an expert who actually designed and\ncommissioned a number of power electronics-based FACTS controllers since its inception in the\n1990s.\nSpeaker(s): Kalyan Sen\,\nRoom: Event Room\, Rusty's\, 5934 Calle Real\, Goleta\, California\, United States\, 93117

SUMMARY:IEEE PES/PELS Distinguished Lecture: Practical Power Flow Controller Brings Benefits of Power Electronics to the Modern Grid
DESCRIPTION:[]\nPower flow control techniques have been practiced\, from using inductors\, capacitors\, transformers and load tap changers in the earlier days of electrical engineering to power electronics-based solutions in recent years. Even though the costs and complexities of the available solutions vary widely\, the basic underlying theory of power flow control is still the same as it has always been. The question is which solution one should employ. The answer depends on knowing what the true need is. The power industry’s pressing need for the most economical ways to transfer bulk power along a desired path may be met by building new transmission lines\, which is a long and costly process. Alternatively\, it may be quicker and cheaper to utilize the existing transmission lines more efficiently. The key is to identify the underutilized transmission lines and harness their dormant capacities to increase the power flows to the lines’ thermal limits using the most cost-effective and time-tested solutions. Also\, the grid congestion can be mitigated by holding the power flow in a line at its limit\, instead of tripping the line and possibly initiating a cascaded failure of the grid\, resulting in a blackout.\nThe presentation is designed to provide the basic principles of power flow control theory\, an overview of the most commonly used power flow controllers\, and future trends. The first commercial-grade Sen Transformer is designed\, manufactured\, and tested. The test results are as always expected. The audience will hear from an expert who actually designed and commissioned a number of power electronics-based FACTS controllers since their inceptions in the 1990s.\nAbout the Speaker:\nKalyan Sen is the President & Chief Technology Officer of Sen Engineering Solutions\, Inc. ((http://www.sentransformer.com/)) that specializes in developing SMART power flow controllers—a functional requirements-based and cost-effective solution. Kalyan was an Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering at Prairie View A&M University during 1987-90 and spent the next 30 years in industry\, starting at Westinghouse Science & Technology Center (STC) in 1990 and retiring from Fluor (formerly Westinghouse) in 2020. He was a key member of the Flexible Alternating Current Transmission Systems (FACTS) development team at the Westinghouse-STC for which he became a Westinghouse Fellow Engineer. He contributed to concept development\, simulation\, design\, and commissioning of FACTS projects at Westinghouse. He conceived some of the basic concepts in power flow control technology for which he was elevated to the IEEE Fellow grade with the citation: for the development and application of power flow control technology. He is the Co-inventor of the Sen Transformer\, which is commercially available to regulate ±6.5 MVA line power in a 33 kV line.\nKalyan holds BEE (1982)\, MSEE (1983)\, and PhD (1987) degrees\, all in Electrical Engineering\, from Jadavpur University\, Tuskegee University and Worcester Polytechnic Institute\, respectively\, and an MBA (2012) from Robert Morris University. He is a licensed Professional Engineer in Pennsylvania and New York. He has been serving as an IEEE PES Distinguished Lecturer since 2002. In that capacity\, he has given presentations on power flow control technology more than 250 times in 20 countries. He serves IEEE SSIT Board of Governors as Education Committee Chair and President-Elect (2025-2026). He also serves IEEE Region 2 as its Professional Activities Chair. Kalyan has authored or coauthored more than 25 peer-reviewed publications\, 8 issued patents\, 2 books\, and 3 book chapters in the areas of power flow control and power electronics. He is the Coauthor of the book titled\, Introduction to FACTS Controllers: Theory\, Modeling\, and Applications (978-0-470-47875-2)\, IEEE Press and John Wiley & Sons\, Inc. 2009\, which is also published in Chinese and Indian paperback editions.

SUMMARY:Broken Conductor Detection Methods
DESCRIPTION:Detection of broken conductors in power systems has become increasingly critical in recent years\, driven by a heightened emphasis on wildfire prevention and public safety. If a phase conductor breaks and is not promptly detected and isolated\, it may fall to the ground\, leading to ground faults\, igniting nearby vegetation\, or creating dangerous conditions around the line. Consequently\, utilities are placing greater reliance on protection schemes that can identify conductor breakage quickly and with high accuracy. In this presentation\, we will examine real field events from sub-transmission systems to demonstrate how various broken-conductor detection methods could have been applied to identify these faults more effectively and enhance overall power system reliability.\nSpeaker(s): Kanchan Dase\,\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/562636

SUMMARY:Biodegradable Electronics in the Semiconductor Era
DESCRIPTION:[]\nCo-Sponsored by the OEB/SCV SSIT Chapter and the SCV/OEB/SF EPS Chapter\nThe semiconductor era has transformed modern life\, yet\, as electronic technologies become increasingly pervasive\, their environmental footprint\, short product lifecycles\, and growing contribution to global e-waste present a critical challenge. In this context\, biodegradable electronics is emerging as a complementary paradigm for specific classes of future devices where transient operation\, material sustainability\, and responsible end-of-life are essential.\nThis talk will examine how biodegradable electronics can be positioned within the broader semiconductor ecosystem through innovations in functional materials\, low-temperature processing\, flexible device platforms\, and sustainable integration strategies. Particular emphasis will be placed on biodegradable and bio-derived substrates\, piezoelectric and conductive material systems\, as well as their relevance to packaging\, sensor platforms\, and distributed electronic applications. The discussion will highlight how principles from semiconductor science and engineering can be extended beyond the chip toward greener system-level design\, including interface materials\, encapsulation\, and degradation-aware architectures.\nSpeaker(s): Shweta Agarwala\,\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/558051

SUMMARY:SusTech Talk June 2026 - Sand-Like Particles for High-Temperature Thermal Energy Storage
DESCRIPTION:NEW DATE 16-June\n“Sand-Like Particles for High-Temperature Thermal Energy Storage: Enabling a Resilient Renewable Energy Future”\nwith Shin Young Jeong\, faculty member of the Center for Advanced Turbomachinery and Energy Research\, University of Central Florida.\nDate/Time: Tuesday\, June 16\, 6pm – 7 pm Pacific Time\nAbstract:\nThe transition to renewable energy has increased the need for reliable\, large-scale storage to balance intermittent generation with continuous demand. Thermal energy storage (TES) offers a cost-effective solution by capturing excess energy as heat and releasing it when needed\, supporting long-duration storage and grid stability. Unlike batteries\, TES can scale to industrial levels\, provide process heat\, and deliver electricity through power cycles. Recent advances use abundant\, low-cost materials such as sand-like particles serving as both heat transfer media and storage. This talk will highlight emerging TES technologies and their role in a resilient\, decarbonized energy future.\nSpeaker(s): Shin Young Jeong\,\nAgenda:\n6:00 pm – Introduction of Speaker\n7:00 pm – Adjourn\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/537948
