Results of electro-thermo-elastic analysis of a functionally graded thick-walled spherical shell made of temperature dependent materials are presented in this article. All material properties are assumed temperature-dependent and also are graded along the thickness direction based on power function. Temperature dependency is accounted for all material properties including, thermal, mechanical a...

In this article, the dielectric properties of poly (9-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) and ferrocene-doped PVK thin films are studied. The were grown by isothermal solution casting technique. Dielectric studied as function ferrocene concentration, frequency, temperature. relative permittivity (ε′) is increased with increasing percentage (~1%) due to free charge carriers. decreases for higher (~2%). Howeve...

PRELIMINARY STUDIES " suggested that the capacity of a drug to suppress ventricular arrhythmia might be inherent in a chemical structure which does not possess certain actions previously associated with antiarrhythmic activity, e.g., elevation of electric threshold, depression of conduction, and local anesthesia. Ambonestyl, 2-diethylaminoethyl-isonicotinamide,* (MC 4112), was found to be a com...

Abstract We present a microscopic approach for the coupling of cortical activity, as resulting from proper dipole currents of pyramidal neurons, to the electromagnetic field in extracellular fluid in presence of diffusion and Ohmic conduction. As a result, neural activity becomes represented by a continuous neural field equation, while an observation model for electric field potentials is obtai...

Atrial fibrillation, the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia, has a complex and multifaceted pathophysiology. The presence of a predisposing substrate, frequently encompassing atrial hypertrophy, fibrosis, and significant alterations of the extracellular matrix, is contributing to intra-atrial electric conduction delay as well as shortening and dispersion of atrial refractory periods. Trig...

Thermoelectric properties of Sn1-x-yTiy SbxO2 ceramics were investigated in detail. The addition of Sb into SnO2 matrix increased the electric conductivity, σ. The increase in the σ value should be caused by the increase in the carrier concentration. The Seebeck coefficients of all the samples were negative, which means that these samples have n-type conduction. The samples of this study have p...

When a cylindrical magnet is rotated about its axis, electric fields develop on its surface which can be used to generate continuous currents. This effect is an example of electromagnetic induction, mechanical energy being converted into electrical energy, through the mediation of the magnetic field. It is suggested that the effect can be explained most simply in terms of the forces acting on c...
