Computer science is now considered as the basis of the future economy. It is then important to adapt courses given to future engineers to this reality. All Canadian engineers now require a solid basis in computer science and, especially, they need to be aware of and able to use computer tools specific to their domain. Consequently, the Department of Chemical Engineering of the Université de Sherbrooke switched from Matlab teaching to Python with the Spyder programming interface in 2016. This latter high-level programming language is indeed free and open-source and, particularly, its use is constantly increasing in both research and industrial fields.

PrefaceSince being established in 1949, the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Informatics (VIK) BME has played a flagship role in the development of electronics, IT and computer science in Hungary. We are proud of combining engineering applications with sound scientific results, which is the assurance of high-level industrial collaboration leading to novel results and innovation. The various collaborations with our industrial partners has made it clear that the industry expects methods and results which make their industrial processes more effective and increase productivity and quality. Thus, participation in these collaborations give a competitive edge and ensure the continuous development of VIK. These factors have positioned our Faculty as a significant source of knowledge transfer and a treasured partner in various cooperation activities.The current paper gives a brief account of the results achieved at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Informatics in the year 2016 and, at the same time, tries to encompass the research activities conducted at different departments of the Faculty. We believe that this survey proves to be an informative summary about our scientific and technological contributions made in the year 2016.László Jakab (dean, BME VIK)János Levendovszky (vice-dean in charge of scientific affairs, BME VIK)

This paper describes the introduction and impact of using process oriented guided inquiry learning (POGIL) to increase student engagement in a graduate level engineering optimization class. POGIL exercises were introduced into the class as an effort to enhance student engagement and improve retention of knowledge. The effort revealed that although POGIL has been adopted in many contexts (e.g, materials science, chemical engineering, and computer science), characteristics of the student population and the course may play a significant role in the success of a POGIL implementation. The paper describes the POGIL method, how it was adapted for inclusion in an optimization class, and observations on classroom impacts, engagement, and effectiveness.

This study aims to reveal and analyze the landscape of China’s scientific publications in 2018–2020 on the subject “Energy Engineering and Power Technology” using bibliometric data from the Lens platform. Bibliometric data of 26,623 scholarly works that satisfy the query: “Filters: Year Published = (2018–); Publication Type = (journal article); Subject = (Energy Engineering and Power Technology); Institution Country/Region = (China)” were used to analyze their main topics disclosed by Fields of Study and Subject; the leading contributors to these R&D activities were also detected. Chinese Academy of Sciences, China University of Petroleum, Tsinghua University, Xi’an Jiaotong University, China University of Mining and Technology are the leading institutions in the subject. Most research works were funded by National Natural Science Foundation of China. China carries out its research not only in conjunction with the leading economies: United States, United Kingdom, Australia and Canada, but also with the developing countries: Pakistan, Iran, Saudi Arabia and Viet Nam. Materials science, Chemical engineering, Computer science, Chemistry, Catalysis, Environmental science are the top Fields of Study. Analysis of co-occurrence of Fields of Study allowed to identify 5 thematic clusters: 1. Thermal efficiency and environmental science; 2. Materials science for energy storage and hydrogen production; 3. Catalysis and pyrolysis for better fossil fuels; 4. Computer science and control theory for renewable energy; 5. Petroleum engineering for new fossil fuel resources and composite materials. The results of the work can serve as a reference material for scientists, developers and investors, so that they can understand the research landscape of the “Energy Engineering and Power Technology” subject.
