Electromagnetic (EM) flowmeters are important flow sensing devices across industries like oil and gas and power generation. The EM flowmeter works on the principle of Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction. In short, when an ionic fluid like water flows through a pipe, in the ... En savoir plus

Cylindrical single or multi-turns coils and Spiral Flat multi turn coils are used in pulsed magnetic technologies for which both magneto-harmonic and transient magnetic analysis are required. The first are mainly used for tubular geometries and the second are preferred for sufficiently ... En savoir plus

This report addresses design of a PCB intended for use as a busbar integrated with multiple DC-link (rail) capacitors in a high power inverter. The geometry and current ratings are typical of a 50 kW unit operating at 60kHz in an intermittent mode. First, circuit aspects are analyzed. ... En savoir plus

The integration of plasmonic components into optoelectronic platforms enables promising pathways for high-speed, ultra-compact signal modulation at the nanoscale. In this work, we present a novel all-plasmonic modulator, which leverages localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR)-induced ... En savoir plus

Illegal immigrants and smugglers frequently use underground tunnels to avoid border security and checkpoints. In addition, the threat of international terrorism has recently made the effort to detect tunnels a national security priority. No single technology and sensing modality is ... En savoir plus

Terahertz (THz) sensing has been attracting interest due to its capabilities for biological fingerprint and medical identification. However, achieving angle-tunable ultrahigh figure-of-merit (FOM) of THz sensing remains challenging due to the difficulty in realizing tunable resonances ... En savoir plus

The measurement of dielectric constant at frequencies of 20 GHz or greater is important for specifying the optical properties of materials at millimeter wavelength. One method of measurement uses a resonant cavity containing a sample of the material, and relates the resonant frequency ... En savoir plus

The paper on EMC Simulation Analysis of Enclosures demonstrates a simulation method to analyze the shielding effectiveness of enclosures. From the early development stage on it is possible to analyze the effect of electromagnetic waves on shielding panels. Different types of openings ... En savoir plus

Electromagnetic shearing (EMS) is a high speed sheet metal shearing system where the workpiece is fractured under a pulsed electromagnetic force. It can be regarded as an extension of electromagnetic forming[1-2]. The basic shearing principle is that a huge repulsive electromagnetic ... En savoir plus

Surface plasmons in metal rectangular gratings can form bands and band gaps in their dispersion relations, analogous to those in photonic band-gap crystals and electronic bands in semiconductors. Introducing a dielectric coating atop the metal redshifts the plasmonic band gap, enabling a ... En savoir plus
