We present results for a model that describes particle penetration through a medium. The particle motion is subjected to an alternating external field (bias). We employ theoretical considerations and computer simulations. A random walk model is utilized with an alternating bias factor in the probabilities of jumps, which selectively changes the mode of motion from a pure random walk to a regula...

In this paper the equations for Alfvh waves are examined and conditions necessary for the occurrence of resonance are determined. An experiment using liquid sodium inside a torus is described. Waves were generated by means of alternating current supplied to a coil around the torus. A strong resonance was observed at the fundamental frequency, and a weak resonance at three times this frequency. ...

1 November 2001 Alternating Current Theory J R Lucas An alternating waveform is a periodic waveform which alternate between positive and negative values. Unlike direct waveforms, they cannot be characterised by one magnitude as their amplitude is continuously varying from instant to instant. Thus various forms of magnitudes are defined for such waveforms. The advantage of the alternating wavefo...

Electrophoretic deposition of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) using alternating current electric fields (0.01-1000 Hz) is reported. Pure acetone was used as suspending medium. Two parallel gold electrodes were used as depositing substrate. The effect of depositing parameters such as frequency and three waveforms (sinusoidal, rectangular and triangular) on deposit yield was investigated. According to ou...
