One of the primary reasons for large power fluctuations in smelting furnaces is loss of contact between the electrode and ore. Therefore one of the important aspects of controlling power fluctuations is a predictive algorithm for the positioning of the electrode. We propose a model ... En savoir plus

Plasmonic-based optical trapping is in its infancy and growing rapidly. Research in this area will significantly advance fundamental understanding in fields such as nanophotonics and biophotonics. Novel plasmonic trapping structures and systems can be designed and optimized using the ... En savoir plus

This paper presents a new design methodology of quasi-conformal transformation optics (QCTO) based modified Luneburg lens antennas using a broadband anti-reflective (AR) layer. The design used QCTO technique to modify portion of the lens’s spherical geometry into a flat surface for ... En savoir plus

Abstract: As a environmentally friendly thermal energy harvesting device, thermoelectric generator (TEG) can convert heat into electricity directly. Therefore, researchers have made great efforts to detailed explanation the principium including established many steady-state models to ... En savoir plus

Due to the complexity of electromagnetic modeling, researchers and scientists always look for development of accurate and fast methods to extract the parameters of electronic interconnects and package structures. In this paper, we illustrate modeling of multiconductor interconnects in ... En savoir plus

Tunnels and their detection have been a problem in warfare since the ancient world. Recent events have highlighted the ongoing problems of tunnels and the difficulties in locating them, not only in military situations, but also in law enforcement and homeland security applications as ...

Surface plasmon polaritons (SPP) are guided electromagnetic modes of a metal/dielectric interface. These surface electromagnetic waves arise through the coupling of the incident electromagnetic radiation with the collective charge-density oscillations of the free electrons in a metal. ...

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is the world’s largest and most powerful particle accelerator. The LHC machine consists on a 27 km circumference tunnel that accelerates and collides proton beams and heavy ions. The High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) is a project aiming to upgrade the LHC ...

Annular Linear Induction Pump (ALIP) is used for pumping liquid metal in fast reactors and in experimental test facilities. In order to understand the transient behaviour of this pump, a 2-dimensional axisymmetric model in time domain is developed. The transient performance prediction ... En savoir plus

It is a fact that IEC 60287 standard introduces important errors in the computation of the armor losses of submarine three-core lead sheathed armored cables, since the twisting of phases and armor wires is not considered. This results in an overestimation of cable size, and hence its ... En savoir plus
