RELLIS Data and Research Center: Coming Summer 2025

The RELLIS Data and Research Center will be a public – private development with Texas A&M University.  The data center will be built on the new RELLIS Campus located in College Station, Texas.  It will offer cloud storage and outstanding managed services. The RELLIS Academy and Research Lab offers the ability for Texas A&M University to give real world data center experience to both students and faculty.

“Come, Ye Thankful People”

University Interscholastic League

“Come, Ye Thankful People, Come” is a traditional Christian hymn often associated with harvest festivals and Thanksgiving celebrations. The hymn was written by Henry Alford in 1844, an Anglican cleric and theologian. Alford, who later became the Dean of Canterbury, composed the hymn to reflect the agricultural rhythms and the cycle of planting and harvesting that were integral to rural life in 19th-century England.

The hymn’s lyrics express gratitude for the bountiful harvest and serve as a metaphor for spiritual growth and the final gathering of souls in the Christian eschatological vision. The first verse invites thankful people to come together to praise God for the harvest. Subsequent verses extend the metaphor, comparing the harvest to the final judgment, when believers are gathered to be with God.

The music most commonly associated with “Come, Ye Thankful People, Come” was composed by George J. Elvey in 1858, and the tune is named “St. George’s Windsor.” The hymn’s enduring popularity stems from its dual themes of thanksgiving and eschatological hope, making it suitable for both seasonal celebrations and reflective worship services. Its singable melody and rich imagery continue to resonate with congregations, embodying a sense of communal gratitude and spiritual anticipation.

Abstract: To accommodate the growing demand for electricity, a novel transmission line design has been proposed. This proposed structure must undergo rigorous evaluation to ensure it complies with existing safety standards. As magnetic field and electric field are crucial for the safety of systems and their surroundings, the proposed line must adhere to established limits. This paper presents a comparison of the electric field generated by a newly proposed unconventional overhead line compared to a conventional line where electric field is calculated for each sub-conductor individually. The results demonstrate that the unconventional transmission line exhibits a more favorable electric field profile compared to the conventional line.

In large to medium-sized cities in the US, the highest voltages typically found in the power distribution and transmission systems are as follows:

  1. Transmission Lines: These are the high-voltage lines that transport electricity over long distances from power plants to substations near populated areas. The voltages for transmission lines can range from:
    • 69 kV (kilovolts)
    • 115 kV
    • 138 kV
    • 230 kV
    • 345 kV
    • 500 kV
    • Up to 765 kV in some areas
  2. Sub-transmission Lines: These lines carry electricity from the high-voltage transmission system to the distribution substations and have voltages typically ranging from:
    • 34.5 kV
    • 69 kV
    • 115 kV
  3. Distribution Lines: These lines deliver electricity from substations to consumers and generally operate at lower voltages. Common distribution voltages include:
    • 4.16 kV
    • 13.2 kV
    • 13.8 kV
    • 25 kV
    • 34.5 kV

The specific voltage levels can vary depending on the region and the utility company managing the electrical infrastructure. The highest voltages, especially those above 230 kV, are generally found in the transmission network, which is designed to efficiently move large quantities of power over long distances.
