ES1036A: Programming Fundamentals for Engineers Course Outline 2013-14 (Fall 2013: September 9, 2013 – December 6, 2013) No classes on October 14 (Thanksgiving), October 31- November 1 (Fall Study Break)
Description: This course is intended to establish a foundation for Computer Programming with specific emphasis on Engineering problems and applications. The course will cover the introductory aspects of Object-Oriented Analysis, Design, and Implementation (using C++) techniques, along with Testing according to the specified requirements of the program. Computer Programming will be treated as part of the Engineering Process, and as such will be contextualized through the course according to the Engineering Profession. Instructor:

Knowledge Base: Students will develop an understanding of: 1. Power system components
2. Operation of electrical power transmission systems 3. Representation of unbalanced three phase quantities using symmetrical components 4. HVDC and FACTS technologies and their application in electrical power systems Students will acquire the ability to: 1. Perform Load Flow analysis 2. Calculate fault currents in both symmetrical and unsymmetrical faults 3. Identify the needs of stable power system operation Problem Analysis: Students will employ their knowledge base to understand and solve problems. Investigation: By doing experiments in the lab and also approaching mathematical analysis, they will be able to reach to the solutions and valid conclusions. Design: Students will be able to propose technical solutions to problems presented. Engineering Tools: Students will learn basic and advanced tools for the analysis of electrical power systems. Individual Work: Students will work individually to run and analyse laboratory experiments and solve problems based on lecture material.

For the purpose of evaluation, the course is divided into three components, namely, lecture (midterm tests and final examination), laboratory and assignments. In order to pass the course, a student must obtain a passing grade in each component. A student who fails any component shall receive a final grade not greater than 48%. To obtain a passing grade, a mark of 50% or more must be obtained on the final examination. A final examination mark of
