Protection against windup and limit cycling in cascaded feedback loops

14:45 – 15:00

Eduard EITELBERG, Electrical and Electronic Engineering

My research area is control systems, with a broad scope that includes numerical simulation methods, model reduction, digital and non-linear control, load sharing in power and other systems, multi-loop control and loop interaction. I also delve into physics and electrochemical modelling of membranes, as well as the legal-economic aspects of money and banking. My work bridges the disciplines of physics, engineering, economics, and law. Recently, I’ve been focusing on cascaded control and the conserved quantities in the universe.

Solar photovoltaic energy production at a private home in Israel

15:00 – 15:15

Shmuel GAZIT, Mechanical Engineering

My research focuses on the application of solar energy for the production of electricity. This topic has been gaining growing attention in Israel as well as internationally. One of the problems in harvesting the solar energy is the fact that solar panels consume large area, and in the urban scenario, real estate is expensive. I collected and analyzed solar energy data using panels mounted on a home roof. Research to find effective solutions to this problem is a challenging issue that may require innovative approaches

Detailed analysis under fully constrained and relaxed boundary conditions of linear fields in the vicinity of a corner

15:15 – 15:30

Ayelet GOLDSTEIN, Mechanical Engineering

My research explores flow field solutions and their extension to multidisciplinary domains like heat transfer, electromagnetism, and optics. Starting with two-phase flow and singularity analysis, we expanded to full-domain modeling, integrating fluid dynamics with other physical systems. The unified framework supports both slip and no-slip conditions, offering broad applicability and cross-disciplinary insights.

Time-Effective Logistics of Project-Based Electronic Courses

15:30 – 15:45

 Samuel KOSOLAPOV ,Electrical and Electronic Engineering

The appearance of inexpensive microcontrollers has changed the way electronic components—both analog and digital—are used. Programming microcontrollers has become an important part of electronic design. Modern simulation tools (such as TinkerCad), along with kits containing real components, have proven helpful in organizing project-based electronic courses.

Use of epidural spinal cord stimulation for the treatment of foot drop

15:45 – 16:00

Einat RAVID, Applied Mathematics

Neurological gait disorders, including motor cortex lesions, cerebral palsy, spinal cord injury, and stroke, often cause foot drop, which is the inability to dorsiflex the foot during walking. The study aims to evaluate epidural spinal cord stimulation as a treatment for foot drop, assess the feasibility of selectively activating central neural pathways that control distal muscles, and determine the necessary stimulation parameters.

Approximate Analytical Solution for Guided Modes in One-Dimensional Arrays of Identical Dielectric Rectangular Waveguides for Integrated Photonics

16:00 – 16:15

Vladislav SHTEEMAN,Electrical and Electronic Engineering

Integrated photonics. Analytical solution for a rectangular step-index waveguide has been modified and extended to the case of one-dimensional photonic arrays of identical waveguides. This approach proposes an analytical description of a full set of guided modes of a multiwaveguide system, in arrays of coupled strip-, embedded strip-, buried, strip-loaded-, rib-, etc. waveguides of rectangular geometry, incorporating an arbitrary number of individual devices.
