Versatile shaping of optical frequency combs and applications

Optical frequency combs are a series of phase-locked and equidistant laser lines in the spectral domain. In the time domain, they correspond to periodic pulse trains by the Fourier relation. The ability to shape optical combs and pulse trains is pivotal to ...

Millimeter-Wave Heating in In Vitro Studies: Effect of Convection in Continuous and Pulse-Modulated Regimes

Denys Nikolayev

Shallow penetration of millimeter waves (MMW) and non-uniform illumination in in vitro experiments result in a non-uniform distribution of the specific absorption rate (SAR). These SAR gradients trigger convective currents in liquids affecting transient an ...

Simple predictive electron transport models applied to sawtoothing plasmas

Olivier Sauter, Timothy Goodman, Antoine Pierre Emmanuel Alexis Merle, Doohyun Kim

In this work, we introduce two simple transport models to evaluate the time evolution of electron temperature and density profiles during sawtooth cycles (i.e. over a sawtooth period time-scale). Since the aim of these simulations is to estimate reliable p ...

Methods for reliable estimation of pulse transit time and blood pressure variations using smartphone sensors

David Atienza Alonso, Francisco Javier Rincon Vallejos, Srinivasan Murali, Alair Dias Junior

Hypertension is known to affect around one third of adults globally and early diagnosis is essential to reduce the effects of this affliction. Today’s Blood Pressure (BP) monitoring cuffs are obtrusive and in- convenient for performing regular measurements ...

The merits of ion cyclotron heating schemes for sawtooth control in tokamak plasmas

Jonathan Graves, Jonathan Marc Philippe Faustin

JET experiments have compared the efficacy of low-and high field side ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) as an actuator to deliberately minimise the sawtooth period. It is found that low-field side ICRH with low minority concentration is optimal for sa ...

Estimation of Blood Pressure and Pulse Transit Time Using Your Smartphone

David Atienza Alonso, Francisco Javier Rincon Vallejos, Srinivasan Murali, Alair Dias Junior

It is widely recognized today that there is an alarming rise of lifestyle-induced chronic diseases (e.g., type II diabetes) in our society. Therefore, a strong need exists for cost-effective and non-invasive devices that can measure blood pressure (BP) to ...

In vivo evaluation of a novel 'diastole-patching' algorithm for the estimation of pulse transit time: advancing the precision in pulse wave velocity measurement

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Orestis Vardoulis

Carotid-to-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV) is the gold standard for the assessment of aortic stiffness. It is calculated by the ratio of pulse transit time (PTT) between two arterial sites and the distance between them. The precision of PTT estimation de ...

On the issues related to compliance of LF pulsed exposures with safety standards and guidelines

Valerio De Santis

In this paper, procedures to determine compliance of low-frequency pulsed exposures are investigated. Current methods specified by international standards or guidelines (e.g., from the ICNIRP or IEEE) are recognized to be conservative in order to account f ...

Demonstration of sawtooth period locking with power modulation in TCV plasmas

Olivier Sauter, Timothy Goodman, Federico Alberto Alfredo Felici

Corroborating evidence is presented that the sawtooth period can follow the modulation frequency of an externally applied high power electron cyclotron wave source. Precise, fast and robust open loop control of the sawtooth period with a continuously chang ...

Empirical scaling of sawtooth period for onset of neoclassical tearing modes

Olivier Sauter, Stefano Coda, Jonathan Graves

Experimental observations from a range of tokamaks show that neoclassical tearing modes (NTMs) are triggered at lower plasma pressure when the sawtooth period is longer. A multi-machine database from nine tokamaks has been established in order to extrapola ...
