Toward plasma drifts in EMC3: Implementation of gradient, divergence, and particle tracing schemes

Matthieu Benoit C. Jacobs

This paper presents a first implementation of gradient, divergence, and particle tracing schemes for the EMC3 code, a stochastic 3D plasma fluid code widely employed for edge plasma and impurity transport modeling in tokamaks and stellarators. These scheme ...

Electronic metadevices for terahertz applications

Elison de Nazareth Matioli

The evolution of electronics has largely relied on downscaling to meet the continuous needs for faster and highly integrated devices(1). As the channel length is reduced, however, classic electronic devices face fundamental issues that hinder exploiting ma ...

A Prony-based approach for accelerating the lightning electromagnetic fields computation above a perfectly conducting ground

Marcos Rubinstein

Lightning strikes can seriously affect the reliability and availability of electrical infrastructures. The computation of lightning-electromagnetic fields represents one of the most crucial steps in the evaluation of the induced effects; thus, having at di ...

Surface Susceptibilities as Characteristic Models of Reflective Metasurfaces

Karim Achouri, Shourya Dutta Gupta, Ville Tuovi Tiukuvaara

While metasurfaces (MSs) are constructed from deeply subwavelength unit cells, they are generally electrically large and full-wave simulations of the complete structure are computationally expensive. Thus, to reduce this high computational cost, nonuniform ...

A Prony-Based Approach for Accelerating the Lightning Electromagnetic Fields Computation: Effect of the Soil Finite Conductivity

Marcos Rubinstein

This work provides an approach for speeding up the evaluation of lightning ElectroMagnetic (EM) fields in the case of a finite soil conductivity. The soil conductivity is taken into account through the well-known Cooray-Rubinstein (CR) approximation, which ...

Metal-wire-embedded alumina insulating material using micro- and nanoscale 3D printing for surface flashover mitigation in a vacuum

Guang-Yu Sun

A micro- and nanoscale 3D printing technique is applied to fabricate a functional insulating material that mitigates surface discharge in a vacuum based on microscopic electron multipactor suppression. The proposed alumina ceramic insulator design consists ...
