Laser soldering of piezoelectric actuator with minimal thermal impact

Jacques Jacot, Thomas Maeder, Yannick Sébastien Fournier, Frank Seigneur

Mechanical and electrical connecting of piezoelectric actuator is often done using conductive glue. Its advantage is not to heat the piezoelectric actuator during connection. But there are many disadvantages to gluing; the main one is curing time. Welding ...

External impedance and admittance of buried horizontal wires for transient studies using transmission line analysis

Mario Paolone

The paper investigates the applicability of some closed form expressions for the ground impedance and ground admittance of buried horizontal wires (bare and insulated) for lightning or switching transient analyses based on transmission line (TL) theory. In ...

Lightning-induced currents in buried coaxial cables

Mario Paolone, Emanuel Petrache

We present a review of theoretical methods to compute lightning-induced currents and voltages on buried cables. The evaluation of such induced disturbances requires the calculation of the electric field produced by lightning along the cable path. We show t ...

On the mechanisms of differential-mode to common-mode conversion in the broadband over power line (BPL) frequency band

Marcos Rubinstein, Ana Vukicevic, José-Luis Bermudez

The conversion between the common and the differential modes is of great importance in the transmission of data over poorly balanced cables such as electrical wiring. In this paper, we have studied some of the mechanisms involved in this conversion, both e ...

Characterization of Microfabricated Probes for Combined Atomic Force and High-Resolution Scanning Electrochemical Microscopy

Nico de Rooij, Terunobu Akiyama

A combined atomic force and scanning electrochemical microscope probe is presented. The probe is electrically insulated except at the very apex of the tip, which has a radius of curvature in the range of 10-15 nm. Steady-state cyclic voltammetry measuremen ...

Test results of a small size CICC with advanced Nb3Sn strands

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Boris Stepanov, Rainer Wesche

In the scope of the design activities for a 12.5 T dipole magnet, a short length of cable-in-conduit conductor (CICC) with steel jacket was prepared in spring 2005 as a pre-prototype of the high field dipole conductor. The small, rectangular conductor uses ...

Investigation of a Cable Transmission for the Actuation of MR Compatible Haptic Interfaces

Hannes Bleuler, Dominique Chapuis, Roger Gassert, Etienne Burdet, Ganesh Gowrishankar

This paper investigates a cable transmission to remotely actuate MR compatible robots over a distance of several meters. Such a transmission could be an interesting solution for haptic interfaces for neuroscience studies performing force feedback during fu ...

Lightning induced disturbances in buried cables - Part II: Experiment and model validation

Mario Paolone, Emanuel Petrache

This paper presents experimental results obtained at the International Center for Lightning Research and Testing (ICLRT) at Camp Blanding, Florida during the smnmers of 2002 and 2003. Currents induced by triggered and natural lightning events were measured ...

Effect of cyclic loading and conductor layout on contact resistance of full-size ITER PFCI conductors

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Boris Stepanov

An evolution of the contact resistances (R-c) of two full-size ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) cable-in-conduit conductors (CICC) aimed for the Poloidal Field Conductor Insert (PFCI) was studied in the Twente Cryogenic Press. The co ...
