# Site ## Pages - [Page not found](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/404/): That page doesn't exist, or it has moved since you last looked - [About this course](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/about/): Why SLOP6246 is built around one failure condition, how the semester is shaped, and what the course deliberately does not do. - [Assessment](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/assessments/): Four stages of one problem: define the event, site against it, operate through it, then defend a system and name what beats it. - [Define the Drought](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/assessments/a1-define-the-drought/): The first rung of the ladder — choose a threshold, a duration and a scope, then defend the periods your definition admits and the ones it discards. - [Site Against Failure](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/assessments/a2-site-against-failure/): The second rung — place a renewable portfolio to reduce correlated low output rather than to maximise the capacity factor on a brochure. - [The 72-Hour Dispatch](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/assessments/a3-the-72-hour-dispatch/): The third rung — run the system hour by hour through the event, spend the storage, start the reserve, shed what you must, and record the cost. - [Design for the Worst Week](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/assessments/a4-design-for-the-worst-week/): The final rung — build a system you are willing to defend, and state the event that still defeats it. - [The Failure Wall](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/failure-wall/): A running record of what each design could not survive — kept because naming the failure boundary is part of the engineering, not an apology for it. - [Lectures](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/lectures/): The seminar strand — the recorded argument behind each act of the semester. - [One System, Two Stories](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/lectures/week-01/): The opening lecture — the same synthetic system described by an annual figure and by its hourly trace, and why only one of them is a design input. - [Drawing the Line](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/lectures/week-02/): The second lecture — how an operative definition is built, and how each of its parameters changes what counts as an event. - [Power, Energy, and the Week That Tells Them Apart](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/lectures/week-07/): The week 7 lecture — why "how much storage do we need" is two questions, and why a multi-day event is what forces the distinction into the open. - [Declaring the Boundary](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/lectures/week-12/): The closing lecture — what it means to state the event that defeats your design, and why that statement is the course's primary output. - [Policies and support](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/policies/): How this course handles late work, extensions, academic integrity and the use of generative tools. - [The Average Is Lying to You](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/sessions/week-01/): Two descriptions of one system — an annual share and an hourly trace — and what each is fit for. - [When Does Bad Weather Become a Drought?](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/sessions/week-02/): Building an operative definition: threshold, span, recovery allowance, scope, season. - [The Weather Does Not Fail Independently](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/sessions/week-03/): Correlated output, and why independent-generator arithmetic overstates a fleet's reliability. - [How Big Is the Weather?](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/sessions/week-04/): The size of a weather system set against the size of the grid underneath it. - [Below Cut-In](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/sessions/week-05/): Power curves, cut-in speed, and what a fleet does when the wind is merely weak. - [Solar Helps, Until Wind and Sun Fail Together](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/sessions/week-06/): Wind and solar through a winter anticyclone, tested hour by hour rather than on annual averages. - [Storage Is Two Problems Wearing One Name](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/sessions/week-07/): Power and energy as separate specifications, and which one a multi-day event actually tests. - [The Generator You Hope Never Runs](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/sessions/week-08/): The economics of reserve plant: paying for capacity whose value is in not being needed. - [Who Gets Turned Off?](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/sessions/week-09/): Load shedding as an allocation problem, once the technical options have run out. - [A Forecast Is Only Useful While You Can Still Act](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/sessions/week-10/): Forecast skill set against the lead time each available action needs. - [Every Failure Gets a Story Afterwards](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/sessions/week-11/): Post-mortems as documents with authors, and the system boundaries they assume. - [The System You Are Willing to Defend](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-mukulsharma0260-alt/sessions/week-12/): Studio critique of the systems you have built, and the failure boundaries you declare for them.
