Direct currents stimulate carbonate mineralization for soil improvement under various chemical conditions

Lyesse Laloui, Dimitrios Terzis, Patrick Gabriel Yihsiu-Ming Hicher

The present study integrates direct electric currents into traditional calcium carbonate mineralization to investigate electrochemical interactions and the subsequent crystalline growth of CaCO3 bonds in sand. A specific line of focus refers to the effect ...

AC Loss Measurement of the DEMO TF React&Wind Conductor Prototype No. 2

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Kamil Sedlák, Boris Stepanov

The EUROfusion DEMO is being designed as the fusion machine to be built after ITER. During the preconceptual phase, several design options are investigated by theoretical analyses as well as tests on newly developed conductor prototypes. One design option ...

Equal Loss Distribution in Duty-Cycle Controlled H-Bridge LLC Resonant Converters

Drazen Dujic, Jakub Kucka

The duty-cycle control is a popular option for current limiting in LLC resonant converters. Such current limiting is required to protect the converter either during the start-up or during an overload. Although this method proved to be effective, the switch ...

The Propagation Effects of Lightning Electromagnetic Fields Over Mountainous Terrain in the Earth-Ionosphere Waveguide

Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Dongshuai Li

In this paper, a full-wave two-dimensional Finite-Difference-Time-Domain model is developed to evaluate the propagation effects of lightning electromagnetic fields over mountainous terrain in the Earth-ionosphere waveguide. In the model, we investigate the ...
