Input Filter Design (Coursera)

Offered by University of Colorado Boulder,

This is Course #3 in the Modeling and Control of Power Electronics course sequence. After completion of this course, you will gain an understanding of issues related to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), the need for input filters and the effects input filters may have on converter responses.

You will be able to design properly damped single and multi-section filters to meet the conducted EMI attenuation requirements without compromising frequency responses or stability of closed-loop controlled power converters.
We strongly recommend students complete the CU Boulder Power Electronics specialization as well as Courses #1 (Averaged-Switch Modeling and Simulation) and #2 (Techniques of Design-Oriented Analysis) before enrolling in this course (the course numbers provided below are for students in the CU Boulder's MS-EE program):
●Introduction to Power Electronics (ECEA 5700)
● Converter Circuits (ECEA 5701)
● Converter Control (ECEA 5702)
● Averaged-Switch Modeling and Simulation (ECEA 5705)
● Techniques of Design-Oriented Analysis (ECEA 5706)
After completing this course, you will be able to:
● Understand conducted electromagnetic interference (EMI) and the need for input filter
● Understand input filter design principles based on attenuation requirements and impedance interactions.
● Design properly damped single-stage input filters.
● Design properly damped multi-stage input filters.
● Use computer-aided tools and simulations to verify input filter design

Modeling Time Series and Sequential Data (Coursera)

Statistics & Data Analysis Data Science

In this course you learn to build, refine, extrapolate, and, in some cases, interpret models designed for a single, sequential series. There are three modeling approaches presented. The traditional, Box-Jenkins approach for modeling time series is covered in the first part of the course. This presentation moves students from models for stationary data, or ARMA, to models for trend and seasonality, ARIMA, and concludes with information about specifying transfer function components in an ARIMAX, or time series regression, model. A Bayesian approach to modeling time series is considered next.

Business Analytics with Excel: Elementary to Advanced (Coursera)

Business

A leader in a data driven world requires the knowledge of both data-related (statistical) methods and of appropriate models to use that data. This Business Analytics class focuses on the latter: it introduces students to analytical frameworks used for decision making though Excel modeling. These include Linear and Integer Optimization, Decision Analysis, and Risk modeling. For each methodology students are first exposed to the basic mechanics, and then apply the methodology to real-world business problems using Excel.
