Analytical 1D transfer functions for layered soils

Transfer functions are constantly used in both Seismology and Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering to relate seismic ground motion at different depths within strata. In the context of diffusive theory, they also appear in the expression of the imaginary par ...

Lower Hybrid Current Drive in High Aspect Ratio Tokamaks

Joan Decker, Xiaoxia Bai

A multi-machine study has been carried out to investigate the impact of a strongly bounded wave propagation domain on the Lower Hybrid current drive, a condition which occurs principally in high aspect ratio tokamaks. In this regime, the condition of kinet ...

Magnetic field configurational study on a helicon-based plasma source for future neutral beam systems

Ivo Furno, Alan Howling, Philippe Frédérique Bruno Guittienne, Rémy Jacquier, Riccardo Agnello

A helicon-based plasma source is under development and exploration at CEA-IRFM to produce an efficient and dense magnetized plasma column. The final objective of this development is the extraction and acceleration of a blade-like negative ion beam in view ...

Radiation Limitations for Small Implanted Antennas

Anja Skrivervik, Zvonimir Sipus

Medical implants with communication capability are becoming increasingly popular with today’s trends to continuously monitor patient’s condition. This is a major challenge for antenna designers since the implants are inherently small and placed in a commun ...

Electromagnetic Waves in a Time Periodic Medium With Step-Varying Refractive Index

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Theodoros Koutserimpas

We present an exact mathematical framework for electromagnetic wave propagation in periodically time-modulated media, in which the permittivity is homogenous and modulated in a step-varying fashion. By using Hill’s equation theory, we show that this proble ...

Analytical Time-Domain Solution of Plane Wave Propagation Across a Viscoelastic Rock Joint

Lyesse Laloui, Jian Zhao, Yang Zou

The effects of viscoelastic filled rock joints on wave propagation are of great significance in rock engineering. The solutions in time domain for plane longitudinal ( P-) and transverse ( S-) waves propagation across a viscoelastic rock joint are derived ...

Advances in modeling of lower hybrid current drive

Joan Decker

First principle modeling of the lower hybrid (LH) current drive in tokamak plasmas is a longstanding activity, which is gradually gaining in accuracy thanks to quantitative comparisons with experimental observations. The ability to reproduce simulatenously ...

Wave propagation in periodic buckled beams. Part II: Experiments

Alessandro Spadoni, Florian Paul Robert Maurin

Buckled periodic beams possess a geometrically nonlinear, load-deformation relation and intrinsic length scales such that stable, nonlinear waves are possible. In part I of this paper, a model has been derived that predict compressive/rarefaction, superson ...
