Electromagnetic time reversal for online partial discharge location in power cables: Influence of interfering reflections from grid components

In online single-sided partial discharge (PD) location, the measured PD reflection patterns are affected by the characteristics of all the components of the associated power network. This paper analyses the performance of a PD location method based on elec ...

Dielectric Elastomer Actuator-Based Valveless Impedance-Driven Pumping for Meso- and Macroscale Applications

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Thomas Guillaume Martinez, Francesco Clavica, Armando Matthieu Walter, Amine Benouhiba, Silje Ekroll Jahren

Impedance pumps are simple designs that allow the generation or amplification of flow. They are fluid-filled systems based on flexible tubing connected to tubing with different impedances. A periodic off-center compression of the flexible tubing causes the ...

Finite element modeling of dynamic frictional rupture with rate and state friction

Jean-François Molinari, Fabian Barras, Roozbeh Rezakhani, Michael Ludovic Brun

Numerous laboratory experiments have demonstrated the dependence of the friction coefficient on the interfacial slip rate and the contact history, a behavior generically called rate and state friction. Although numerical models have been widely used for an ...

Controlling oscillations in high-order Discontinuous Galerkin schemes using artificial viscosity tuned by neural networks

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Niccolo' Discacciati, Deep Ray

High-order numerical solvers for conservation laws suffer from Gibbs phenomenon close to discontinuities, leading to spurious oscillations and a detrimental effect on the solution accuracy. A possible strategy to reduce it comprises adding a suitable amoun ...
