In order to study the strong electromagnetic pulse effect of critically vulnerable equipment in power systems and evaluate survivability under high-altitude pulses, it is necessary characteristics transient response metal oxide arresters by experiment. this paper, an experimental platform for conduction current injection a typical 10 kV arrester was set up, key parameters such as peak value ove...

Metal oxide surge arrester accurate modeling and its parameter identification are very important for insulation coordination studies, arrester allocation and system reliability. Since quality and reliability of lightning performance studies can be improved with the more efficient representation of the arresters´ dynamic behavior. In this paper, Big Bang – Big Crunch and Hybrid Big Bang – Big Cr...

Adding and removing liquid from socket bladders is a means for people with limb loss to accommodate residual-limb volume change. We fit 19 people with transtibial amputation using their regular prosthetic socket with fluid bladders on the inside socket surface to undergo cycles of bladder liquid addition and removal. In each cycle, subjects sat, stood, and walked for 90 s with bladder liquid ad...

In this research, the surface stress effect on the nonlocal vibration of piezoelectric square plate reinforced by single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) based on classical plate theory (CPT) and first order shear deformation theory (FSDT) is presented. The elastic properties of piezoelectric nanocomposite plate are estimated by Eshelby-Mori-Tanaka and the extended mixture rule approaches. The ...

The paper deals with the mechanical behavior of a micro-beam bonded with two piezoelectric layers. The micro-beam is suspended over a fixed substrate and undergoes the both piezoelectric and electrostatic actuation. The piezoelectric layers are poled through the thickness and equipped with surface electrodes. The equation governing the micro-beam deflection under electrostatic pressure is deriv...

In this paper static and dynamic responses of a fixed-fixed microbeam to electrostatic force and mechanical shock for different cases have been studied. The governing equations whose solution holds the answer to all our questions about the mechanical behavior is the nonlinear elasto-electrostatic equations. Due to the nonlinearity and complexity of the derived equations analytical solution are ...

In this letter, we propose the variable low-PIM termination composed of a voltage-controlled IM-source, fixed attenuator, and linear attenuator. The design method for evaluating PIM-level attenuator is presented in order not to limit range entire termination. It possible maintain performance spite using active whose IM level extremely high. This used dynamic residual noise identification PIM me...

The present paper focuses on various aspects regarding Hall Effect sensors’ design, integration, and behavior analysis. In order to assess their performance, different Hall Effect geometries were tested for Hall voltage, sensitivity, offset, and temperature drift. The residual offset was measured both with an automated measurement setup and by manual switching of the individual phases. To predi...
