On the Ohmic-dominant heating mode of capacitively coupled plasma inverted by boundary electron emission

Haomin Sun, Guang-Yu Sun

Electron emission from the boundary is ubiquitous in a capacitively coupled plasma (CCP) and precipitates nonnegligible influence on the discharge properties. Here, we present Particle-in-Cell/Monte Carlo Collision simulation of an Ohmic-dominant heating m ...

A load cell with adjustable stiffness and zero offset tuning dedicated to electrical micro- and nanoprobing

Simon Nessim Henein, Charles Baur, Etienne Frédéric Gabriel Thalmann, Loïc Benoît Tissot-Daguette, Michal Stanislaw Smreczak

The tasks of electrical micro- and nanoprobing require precision that goes beyond human perception and therefore, depend on sensors providing real-time feedback. Efforts towards automation in micro- and nanoprobing and emerging areas such as branched nanow ...

Thermal Modelling and Experimental Validation in the Perspective of Tool Steel Laser Polishing

Eric Boillat, Alexandre Masserey

Laser polishing (LP) is a process that allows a significant reduction of the surface roughness of a metal workpiece via re-melting a shallow layer of material. However, the practical use of LP is limited due to the difficulty of satisfying the high surface ...

The Geometry and Charge of the Streamer Bursts Generated by Lightning Rods under the Influence of High Electric Fields

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein

The streamer bursts generated during the initiation and propagation of leaders play an important role in the creation and maintenance of hot discharge channels in air. The most important parameters related to streamer bursts in this respect are the length ...

Deep defects in InGaN LEDs: modeling the impact on the electrical characteristics

Nicolas Grandjean, Jean-François Carlin, Camille Haller

Deep defects have a fundamental role in determining the electro-optical characteristics and in the efficiency of InGaN light-emitting diodes (LEDs). However, modeling their effect on the electrical characteristics of the LED is not straightforward. ...

Partial discharge localization in power transformers using acoustic time reversal

Florent Quentin Aviolat, Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Hamidreza Karami

The localization of partial discharges (PD) is important to monitor the conditioning of high voltage insulator materials. One of the key components in power grids is the high power transformer. Localization of PDs in these pieces of equipment can increase ...

Performance and Design of a Stepped Spillway Aerator

Anton Schleiss, Michael Pfister, Stéphane Christian Olivier Terrier

Stepped spillways are frequently limited to specific discharges under around 30 m2/s due to concerns about potential cavitation damages. A small air concentration can prevent such damages and the design of bottom aerators is well established for smooth chu ...

Flood of 23 November 2019 on the French Riviera: a comparison of discharges estimated by image analysis and hydrological modelling

Etienne Robert, Gauthier Paul Daniel Marie Rousseau

The short and heavy rainfall events observed on the French Riviera often lead to flash floods on coastal catchments: during the flood of 2 October 2015, a peak discharge between 185 and 295 m(3)/s was estimated on the Brague at Biot at 8:00 PM, whereas the ...

Solvent-Free Synthesis and Processing of Conductive Elastomer Composites for Green Dielectric Elastomer Transducers

Frank Nüesch

Stretchable electrodes are more suitable for dielectric elastomer transducers (DET) the closer the mechanical characteristics of the electrodes and elastomer are. Here, a solvent-free synthesis and processing of conductive composites with excellent electri ...

Parametric study of the TF coil design for the European DEMO

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Rainer Wesche, Kamil Sedlák, Xabier Sarasola Martin, Roberto Guarino

In addition to a reduced number of feeders, which would simplify their integration in the cryostat of the tokamak, the present study considers the possibility to reduce the voltage during safety discharge of the toroidal field (TF) coils. A lowered dischar ...
