Modeling and optimization of PCB coils for inductive power transfer systems

The auxiliary power supply for medium voltage converters requires high insulation capability between the source and the load. Inductive power transfer technology, with an air gap between the primary and secondary coil, offers such high insulation capabilit ...

ICRH assisted breakdown study on JET

Benoît Labit, Haomin Sun, Thomas Binderup Jensen

Ion cyclotron (IC) wave assisted breakdown has the potential to increase the robustness of plasma initiation during the ITER pre-fusion operation phase. Studies were performed at JET at ITER relevant loop electric field, E-loop ? 0.33 Vm(-1), and a range o ...

On the Use of Benford’s Law to Assess the Quality of the Data Provided by Lightning Locating Systems

Marcos Rubinstein, Amirhossein Mostajabi, Wolfgang Schulz

Lightning causes significant damage and casualties globally by directly striking humans and livestock, by igniting forest fires, and by inducing electrical surges in electronic infrastructure, airplanes, rockets, etc. Monitoring the evolution of thundersto ...

Ionization Waves Enhance the Production of X-rays during Streamer Collisions

Marcos Rubinstein

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 ...

EM Fields Generated by a Scale Model Helical Antenna and Its Use in Validating a Code for Lightning-Induced Voltage Calculation

This paper aims at validating a code for the evaluation of lightning-induced overvoltages developed in the PSCADEMTDC environment using experimental results obtained on an experimental facility deployed at the University of S˜ao Paulo, Brazil that emulates ...

Memristive Biosensors based on Full-size Antibodies and Antibody Fragments

Giovanni De Micheli, Sandro Carrara, Ioulia Tzouvadaki, Sébastien Naus

For the first time memristive biosensors developed by the incorporation of scAbs (single-chain antibody fragments) enabling label-free detection of free Prostate Specific Antigen (fPSA) for early-stage detection of prostate cancer (PC) are reported. In add ...

On the representation of thin wires inside lossy dielectric materials for FDTD‐based LEMP simulations

Marcos Rubinstein, Akiyoshi Tatematsu

The finite-difference time-domain method is one of the most widely used numerical electromagnetic computation techniques, and it has become an effective tool for analyzing electromagnetic transient phenomena in three-dimensional structures and grounding sy ...

Instability of p-i-n perovskite solar cells under reverse bias

Christophe Ballif, Quentin Thomas Jeangros, Florent Sahli, Arnaud Walter, Daniel Anthony Jacobs, Ricardo Augusto Zanotto Razera, Sylvain Nicolay, Laura Ding, Fan Fu, Chien-Jen Yang, Peter Joseph Fiala, Marion Solange Madeleine Dussouillez

Partial shading can trigger permanent damage in photovoltaic modules because the illuminated solar cells drive the shaded cells into reverse bias. Under reverse bias conditions, perovskite solar cells have been shown to degrade quickly due to processes tha ...

Grouping and “objecthood” effects in the Ebbinghaus illusion

Michael Herzog, Aline Françoise Cretenoud, Einat Rashal

We examined the effect of grouping processes on the Ebbinghaus illusion by manipulating objecthood: the degree to which an object is perceived as a cohesive entity. We presented observers with squares as targets and inducers and manipulated the degree of t ...

Locating lightning strikes and flashovers along overhead power transmission lines using electromagnetic time reversal

Mario Paolone, Gianluca Antonini, Reza Razzaghi, Keyhan Sheshyekani, Marco Scatena

The paper presents a method to identify the location of direct lightning strikes to overhead transmission lines and potential subsequent flashover(s). The method is based on the electromagnetic time reversal theory and relies on the use of a single measure ...
