This professor is an "anomaly"..... engaging, knowledgeable....wish I had a professor like him. Granted, he can BS, but its part of a dying art to engage students..... he brings it back full circle. You can tell this guy LOVES engineering..... wish more professors were like him.
This is true: he's intelligent and capable, and the subject is important. On the other hand, it's a really flaky video. Pointing a camera at a person talking generates raw material, not anything that should be thrown up unedited on TH-cam.
Only a few professors teach an introduction to transmission lines well. Professor Durgin is one. Your students should consider themselves blessed. I'd be happy to sit in that front row.
A professor who actually imparts meaningful UNDERSTANDING (instead of just spewing out equations devoid of meaning)!! I wish I had some professors like this back in my school days!
I feel like going back to college and learn more. This is really really top valuable lecture and fun I have found on youtube for many years. Thanks for your devotion.
Please keep the videos coming. Your an interesting speaker, thanks for the info and knowledge. Electromagnetics is awesome. I'm taking a wireless communication class which teaches these concepts (transmission, standing wave, impedance, etc.) and I only have a calculus I background. Thinking about temporarily switching my major to mathematics after I attain my degree to solidify my mathematics background. I can do most math with my eyes closed accept for when you start getting into stuff like multivariable calculus and triple integrals and such.
7:57 telegraph invention story is touching... it reminds me of a quote by General of the Army Douglas MacArthur ... "The history of the failure of war can almost be summed up in two words: too late."
Thank you, Victor. The general proposition is that recording a lecture gives you the material which might be part of a TH-cam on a topic. Simply putting unedited raw material up on the Internet is more than a waste of people's time and of the economy's resources: it is an insult to us all. This is a competent and intelligent guy, and it's an important topic. It would be good if he would put together some TH-cams covering this material. He hasn't done so yet.
It's sad if your professors were that emotionless and inactive, I hate to break it to you though. This isn't even that much above robot, this is barely passing as a serious knowledge bank. This is just lots of correct terms and assumptions explained ineloquently but with emotion. Did you really pick up any BIG PICTURE ideas from any of these lectures?
I really like the personal advice he gives like when he says " you don't get credit for complexity" I have run into this on the job and its true. There are other good nuggets too. Applying these kinds of things can get you a promotion
ok now i've just got placed in a transmission line factory and i'm completely new to this thing...will anyone please guide me through the whole process of transmission lines and the engineering part regarding to it.....
I watched 4 episodes. While I kinda like Prof. Durgin and the topic as a ham radio operator is close to home, I am disappointed the compete lack of any practical examples and demonstrations. Unnecessarily theoretical IMHO.
I appreciate your honesty in the beginning, but that's not a very validating honesty. You've clearly stated, quite eloquently that nobody is gonna remember your class. Not only that but the class is inherently complex for no good reason other than a barrier to entry. I think you might not see it that way being endowed in academia, but you've already given any of your smarter students a reason to leave. Learning is not about red tape and your "relatable" back story. Edit: Half way through, you're making bad analogies and using hear say history to obfuscate the knowledge. The academic game of obfuscation you've found "intuitive" is not helping anybody but your own ego. Don't wow with words, wow with knowledge. I'd drop this class in one lecture.
Your science is obviously valid and correct let me make that clear, but I feel like the method of passing information is super limited and buried in obvious prerequisite knowledge that could be explained more simply from a higher level of abstraction.

What a sharp professor is Mr Durgin. His students are very lucky. It is very appreciated that he post this kind of videos. Thank you Mr Durgin
A professor who actually imparts meaningful UNDERSTANDING (instead of just spewing out equations devoid of meaning)!! I wish I had some professors like this back in my school days!
Me too. But the only solution is to be one
Thank you Professor Durgin, this was actually fairly enjoyable to watch!
Superb lecture. Prof Durgin really knows how to be engaging. Always effervescent!
1 point 21 jiggahertz! Great Scott!
i am student of a mechanical engineering i took minor in electromagnetism...i now know that EE is interesting. thanks professor :)
I feel like going back to college and learn more. This is really really top valuable lecture and fun I have found on youtube for many years. Thanks for your devotion.
I'm almost 20 years into my EE career and still learn from your videos. thx!
This has gotta be one of the best professors I've ever seen. Or my school really sucks. Probably both.

Ok, can one explain to me whit out theorical equations, is it true that currents causes the mayority of problems in a line of transmision?
Thank you for such a wonderful explanation. Today I understood when to take into account the effect of Tx line theory.
What did you apply them too?

7:10 skipping all the rambling
yep that helped
Doing God’s work, Victor.
thanks man

Very well explained, I can't wait to see the rest of it.

Thanks for sharing your lectures! This make my self-learning so easy.
great lecture ty Dr.Greg
Damn! Wheres does this lecturer teach! I wanna enroll there for my masters!
8 yrs later and i still enjoyed the lecture
Being taught by him would be such a sublime experience !
You'd fail his first lab.
Jump ahead10 min to get to the lecture. It's fairly introductory and doesn't go in detail.
my professors were robots, this is amazing!
mine is a robot
It's sad if your professors were that emotionless and inactive, I hate to break it to you though. This isn't even that much above robot, this is barely passing as a serious knowledge bank.

This guy is a real geek! Just remember, you can't spell geek without a double E.
Really very enjoyable 🙌🏻

Maybe since I don't work in the academic field I don't get why somebody needs to hear this? Isn't a simple solution always preferred?
I totally noticed that too!
Thank you for ur lecturers.
which institution is this being taught at?
Amazing professor!
I thought this was going to be about transmission line speaker enclosures and their 1/4 wave length theory.
GOOD LECTURE
actual introduction to Transmission line 22:20
ok now i've just got placed in a transmission line factory and i'm completely new to this thing...will anyone please guide me through the whole process of transmission lines and the engineering part regarding to it.....
Anindya dutta Please give me some info regarding a n tranmissin line, I am very interested, hanks!
i mean regarding a position on transmission line

@@sftaxitaxi1334 Get it?
Great class!
I think you've confused the distance traveled with wavelength. The 0.1mm is the analogous distance traveled to the original example above it.
i have the same problem
thanks for sharing
Thank you. raphael santore
How the hell did he mess that up??? A 10 Ghz wavelength is ~3cm, not .1 mm. Other than that, it was a very good introduction.
Thank you Sir!
Absolutely amazing professor.
nice one doc ето мне нравиться))))
seems one of his students is busy with facebook.....
Iy
Ÿuy ur
So this is what i would be if i were decided to do my thing. Damn i gots to does it
now everybody knows he checks his facebook during classes...
I'm having a hard time understanding transmission lines.. this lecture will be a big help for me? anyone who already watched this lecture? tell me.
hi from Algeria Mr
Still got his name wrong even after correcting it.
Volts don't move.
Good
He's looking down at the answers.
what a homie
dude in 2nd row using facebook
yes uncle
I'm also like him
one cannot use facebook. Facebook uses us.
Oi... snitches get stitches
My guy really says jiga lolll. Awesome lecturer though
14:27 Maryland accent
I don't understand how you get that far in your education and still say 'Jigahertz' good lecture though :)
fast forward to around 10 min
first time i've ever heard GHz being said "jigahertz" lol
A step toward demonstrating your ability in electronics, Greg, might be making a video without that annoying background hum.
your email please
I watched 4 episodes. While I kinda like Prof. Durgin and the topic as a ham radio operator is close to home, I am disappointed the compete lack of any practical examples and demonstrations. Unnecessarily theoretical IMHO.
Georgia Tech
or if its a Human body....... lmao 15:30
That chap with a laptop is distracting..
fb status ....listen to sub status..kid
got to skip a lot of time on this video
man what a lousy teacher talking about self love.
