Gas-insulated switchgear (GIS) are some of the most reliable and most expensive equipment that are nowadays used in power systems. Condition monitoring of the power system equipment can help operators detect defects like partial discharges (PDs) early, pre ...
A new concept for velocity space thermal ion loss detection is presented. This diagnostic provides pitch angle resolved measurements that are unfeasible with current diagnostics. It uses the same detection principle as the Fast-Ion Loss Detector with a sci ...
This paper discusses the design, fabrication, and measurement of a two-layer, 2×10 elliptic, microstrip series fed antenna array operating at 28 GHz for 5G and mm-wave user equipment. A branch line coupler was used as a feeding network that can generate th ...
Circuit breakers (CBs) play an important role in modern society because they make the power transmission and distribution systems reliable and resilient. Therefore, it is important to maintain their reliability and to monitor their operation. A key to ensu ...
In the discussed paper [N. Starkman, H. Winch, J. S. Sidhu, and G. Starkman, Straight lightning as a signature of macroscopic dark matter, Phys. Rev. D 103, 063024 (2021)], the authors have made several assumptions and statements concerning the initiation ...
Main data used in the following paper: Revaz, T.; Porté-Agel, F. Large-Eddy Simulation of Wind Turbine Flows: A New Evaluation of Actuator Disk Models. Energies 2021, 14, 3745. https://doi.org/10.3390/en14133745 ...
Millimeter wave (mmWave) is an interesting research area in recent years. Transition connectors are key components of mmWave passive systems. The commercially available cable connectors are lossy and expensive in mmWave frequencies. In this paper, various ...
In this study, we will discuss the engineering construction of a special sixth generation (6G) antenna, based on the fractal called Minkowski's loop. The antenna has the shape of this known fractal, set at four iterations, to obtain maximum performance. Th ...
In this paper, an effective procedure for broken rotor bar (BRB) fault detection in a three-phase squirrel-cage induction machine (SCIM) is proposed. This approach relies on a motor current signature analysis (MCSA) by observing the specific fault-related ...
The physical mechanism of Narrow bipolar events (NBEs) has been studied for decades but it still holds many mysteries. Recent observations indicate that the fast breakdown discharges that produce NBEs sometimes contain a secondary fast breakdown that propa ...
