Power District (NPPD) implemented an inspection program to determine the extent of condition for this type of widely used conductor. Other companies which have had related issues with similar types of corrosion have simply replaced their existing insignificant miles of conductor; however NPPD transmission system includes over 2000 miles of this particular conductor. Throughout 2012, many other ...

In this paper we present integral conductor inequalities connecting the Lorentz p, q-(quasi)norm of a gradient of a function to a one-dimensional integral of the p, q-capacitance of the conductor between two level surfaces of the same function. These inequalities generalize an inequality obtained by the second author in the case of the Sobolev norm. Such conductor inequalities lead to necessary...

For testing large-scale cable-in-conduit conductors, several practical experimental techniques have been developed to specifically address the issues of conductor stability. The following described techniques enable experimentalists to quantify the effects and thus provide useful tools ro improve the conductor performapce in magnet applications. In this paper, we present two experimental techni...

We propose a spin-independent scheme to generate and detect two-particle entanglement in a mesoscopic normal-superconductor system. A superconductor, weakly coupled to the normal conductor, generates an orbitally entangled state by injecting pairs of electrons into different leads of the normal conductor. The entanglement is detected via violation of a Bell inequality, formulated in terms of ze...

The ultimate nanoscale conductor is reached perhaps at the single long-molecule level. For example, the prototypical biological molecule of DNA, has been proposed as a natural conductor with many ideal properties: It is naturally occurring as well as easily synthesized, it is prone to " self-assembly " and useful to create desired " scaffolding " at the nanometer scale, and it may allow electro...

A systematic density functional theory based study of hydrogen bond energies of 2465 single hydrogen bonds has been performed. In order to be closer to liquid phase conditions, different from the usual reference state of individual donor and acceptor molecules in vacuum, the reference state of donors and acceptors embedded in a perfect conductor as simulated by the COSMO solvation model has bee...

J. C. Maxwell derived formulae for the calculation of current density and current in a cylindrical conductor supplied with variable current. In the 1950s K. Simonyi published a method for calculating current density in a cylindrical conductor made up of two conductors, cylindrical and tubular, of different resistivities. The present paper proves that Simonyi’s result is incorrect. The main atte...

Simple, low-cost and acid-resistant carbon-based screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) addressed to detection of hexavalent chromium species, Cr(VI), in sulfuric acid at pH about 1, were prepared and characterized. Working and counter electrodes were prepared jointly on the same substrate in a single strip (working-counter electrodes pair). The batch printing process allowed obtaining many working-c...

We present a method for developing fully scalable lumped element models for flip chip interconnects. Measurements of test structures and full wave simulations are used to generate circuit models for various single bump configurations. Furthermore, regression models are developed for scaling the values of the elements with the physical attributes of the circuit. First, the method is validated us...

he present paper deals with the study of static and dynamic analysis of transmission line tower (X type of bracing system). A typical type of transmission line tower carrying 220KV single circuit conductor is chosen as case study existing in bijapur district. The analysis and modeling of tower is carried out using FE based ANSYS software. The model is created in CATIA and then imported to ANSYS...
