Discussion |
Farhad Rachidi |
Prof. Yanzhao Xie, as the organizer of this workshop, gave a warm welcome speech. Four topics were included, which are the fundamental theory of EMTR techniques, the application of EMTR in fault location of transmission lines, the application of EMTR in the location of spatial radiation sources, e.g. IEMI and lightning, and the latest progress about lightning phenomena. The participants benefited a lot from the talks and discussions.
Discussions during the break
To further promote the international cooperation on EMTR techniques and applications in power industry,Prof. Yanzhao Xie, Prof. Farhad Rachidi, and Prof. Marcos Rubinstein signed an agreement. Prof. Andrea Cozza will join the cooperation as well. Meanwhile, some companies from power industry wish to offer corresponding validation platforms for EMTR techniques.
Signing the agreement
The workshop was organized by State Key Lab of Electrical Insulation and Power Equipment, National Center for International Research on Transient Electromagnetics and Applications (TEA), Xi'an Jiaotong University as well as IEEE EMC Xi'an Chapter.This workshop was supported by the Program of Introducing Talents of Discipline to Universities, China.
