River restoration has become a priority goal in many countries. The interest in rivers as valuable habitats for floral and faunal diversity and as an ecosystem with important functions has increased. For evaluating the structural changes from a river resto ...
Laboratory and field studies investigating the mutual interaction between riparian vegetation dynamics and river morphodynamics have revealed that riparian vegetation may play an important role in the evolution of channel beds and river banks. In order to ...
Electron emission from the boundary is ubiquitous in a capacitively coupled plasma (CCP) and precipitates nonnegligible influence on the discharge properties. Here, we present Particle-in-Cell/Monte Carlo Collision simulation of an Ohmic-dominant heating m ...
In addition to a reduced number of feeders, which would simplify their integration in the cryostat of the tokamak, the present study considers the possibility to reduce the voltage during safety discharge of the toroidal field (TF) coils. A lowered dischar ...
Experimental data show that in laboratory sparks, X-rays are produced in time synchronization with the meeting of streamers of opposite polarity just before the final breakdown of the discharge gap. It has been suggested that the electric field enhancement ...
Narrow Bipolar Pulses are generated by bursts of electrical activity in the cloud and these are referred to as Compact Intracloud Discharges (CID) or Narrow Bipolar Events in the current literature. These discharges usually occur in isolation without much ...
Electric discharge machining (EDM) is one of the viable techniques for machining of D2 steel, in which the material removal occurs by spark erosion. The poor selection of EDM parameters affect the machining quality and productivity. Considering this, the p ...
Dams on rivers alter the sediment continuum, trapping water and sediment in the upstream reservoirs. River reaches downstream are affected by several negative effects, such as bed incision, reduction of the river morphological variability, development of a ...
Ionization efficiency is an important factor for ion sources in mass spectrometry and ion mobility spectrometry. Using helium as the discharge gas, acetone as the sample, and high-field asymmetric ion mobility spectrometry (FAIMS) as the ion detection meth ...
