Dielectric barrier discharges (DBDs) are investigated in helium and nitrogen as a function of pressure from 5 to 1000 mbar. Different regimes are observed: glow, Townsend, multi-peak and filamentary, depending on pressure, power and electrode gap. In heliu ...
For an improved assessment of the indirect-lightning performances of distribution systems, the real configuration of the system, which means the topology, the presence of protection devices such as surge arresters and shielding wire/neutral groundings, mus ...
In this paper, the RF Breakdown power threshold in arbitrary complex components based on rectangular waveguide technology is investigated. In particular, multipactor (in vacuum) and corona discharge (close to the Paschen curve minimum) are analyzed. The ob ...
This Master project concerns the electrostatic motors and focus essentially on the transverse force producing the torque. A study of this force is done with a glass sample and an electret sample under different input parameters such as the applied voltage, ...
The ability of the IEEE 802.11 Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol to perform well in multi-hop ad hoc networks has been recently questioned. We observe levels of spatial reuse that are 30% to 50% away from the theoretical limit. The goal of this paper is ...
Electro Discharge Machining (EDM) is an attractive subtractive method for complex 3d structurization of hard and very hard conductive and semi-conductive materials. The machining capabilities of a material do not depend on its hardness but on its electric ...
Highly homogeneous and luminescent CdSe colloidal nanocrystals in the less common zinc blende crystal structure have been obtained at high temperature in a noncoordinating organic solvent. The key parameter appears to be the addition of a phosphonic acid t ...
The work accomplished during the second period of the project mainly focused on the experimental evaluation of the prechamber system comparing its performance regarding emissions and efficiency to standard spark ignition mode. Further instrumentation of th ...
In this paper, we investigate the effect of periodically-grounded shielding wires and surge arresters on the attenuation of lightning-induced voltages. We discuss the adequacy of the commonly made simplification of assuming the shielding wire at ground pot ...
The plasma created during electrical discharge machining is investigated with imaging and spatially-resolved optical emission spectroscopy. Analysis of the pre-breakdown duration shows that the breakdown is of stochastic nature. Due to the presence of gas ...
