We present an analysis of the nearby electromagnetic fields generated by lightning discharges in the presence of a horizontally stratified, two-layer ground. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time the effect of ground stratification on underg ...
This thesis was carried out within the framework of a scientific cooperation project entitled “Application of High Power Electromagnetics to Human Safety” developed by the EPFL, the National University of Colombia and Los Andes University, Colombia. The pr ...
In several studies conducted recently, it was shown that equations pertinent to the electric and magnetic fields produced by electrical charges in motion can be used to calculate the electromagnetic fields produced by current pulses propagating along linea ...
A widespread method for gyrokinetic simulations relies on the discretization of distribution functions with numerical markers. The electromagnetic field is typically represented on a grid by finite differences or finite elements (Particle-In-Cell, PIC). Wh ...
The progress of high power electromagnetic (HPEM) sources during the late 1990s raised the concern in the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) community that they could be deployed for criminal purposes to interfere with the operation of modern electronic s ...
System for monitoring the hydration status of a living being by exploiting the modulation of backscattered RF electromagnetic waves from a wearable patched placed on the skin, said system comprising: a RF-tag adapted to be directly or indirectly fixed to t ...
Lightning electromagnetic pulse (LEMP) is a severe threat to sensitive electronic devices installed in buildings. To protect these devices from LEMP effects, the evaluation of the electromagnetic fields inside of the building is required. Although numerous ...
We investigate lower and upper bounds for the blowup times of a system of semilinear SPDEs. Under certain conditions on the system parameters, we obtain explicit solutions of a related system of random PDEs, which allows us to use a formula due to Yor to o ...
We present an analysis of the thermal response of a hot-wire electroexplosive device (EED) excited with different transient signals. First-order and second-order analytical models to calculate the thermal response of an EED are assessed taking as reference ...
Background: Evaluation of cervical spine mobility after surgery is mainly based on the measurement of the range of motion during imposed movements. It can thus be questionable if this assessment represents the mobility experienced during daily life. The go ...
