Power System Operation Analysis

Dr. Geng is offering the course of Power System Operation Analysis in Fall 2018. This course is offered in English (incl. lectures, assignments and projects) to graduate students with the research focus on power systems, at College of Electrical Engineering, Zhejiang University.

All international students in the program of electrical engineering are encouraged to take this course to fulfill graduate degree credit requirement. Domestic students are also welcome, since this course is expected to be replacable to the course with the same name but given in Chinese.

This course was supported in part by 2020 ZJU Graduate School Course Textbook Sponsorship.

Spring 2021: Due to temporary job change, the course is offered online during weekends.

Spring 2020: Due to the impact of coronavirus, the course is offered online. Please find the course page on Learning in ZJU.

Fall 2018: Please find the syllabus of the course here. [Syllabus-Fall2018.pdf]


Computational Methods

This course is offered to second-year undergraduate students with the major of Electrical Engineering and its Automation, at College of Electrical Engineering, Zhejiang University.

As the course is given in Chinese, please refer to Chinese page for details.

Spring 2021: Due to temporary job change, the class instructed by Dr. Geng is cancelled. Please consider to attend Dr. Huanhai Xin's or Dr. Taiying Zheng's classes instead.

Spring 2020: Due to the impact of coronavirus, the course is offered online. Please find the course page on Learning in ZJU.

Spring 2019: Please find the slides, homeworks and lab instructions of this course from this ZJU Cloud Sharing Link, ZJU account login will be required.
