The electrostatic problem of a hollow, conducting tube of finite length held at a fixed potential is solved using two methods. A twoterm Galerkin solution is constructed for the surface distribution of induced charge. The sum of a uniform component and a simple edgecondition term provides a variational solution to the dual integral equations that are the equations-of-motion for the mixed bounda...

the paper presents simulation results for the propagation of lightning surges along a transmission line and the overvoltages generated in a transformer at the end of the line. it is shown that the monte carlo simulation method provides more realistic assessments than the deterministic methods. it has also been shown that increasing capacitance in transformers results in reduced levels of overvo...

In this paper studies of overvoltage and capacitance measurements at silver cathodes in aqueous perchloric acid at room temperature are described. Capacitances were deduced from open-circuit potential decay measurements. The increase of overvoltage and the growth of the measured capacitances in the course of electrolysis are attributed to a growing pseudocapacitance component. This is anal...

In this paper, the measurement of capacitance variation, of an on-chip power distribution network (PDN) due to the change of internal states of a CMOS logic circuit, is studied. A state-dependent PDNcapacitance model that explains measurement results will be also proposed. The model is composed of capacitance elements related to MOS transistors, signal and power supply wires, and substrate. Ref...

A capacitance measurement system is developed for the measurement of gas-liquid two-phase flow in glass micro-pipes with inner diameters of 3.96, 2.65 and 1.56 mm, respectively. As a typical flow regime in a micro-pipe two-phase flow system, slug flow is chosen for this investigation. A capacitance sensor is designed and a high-resolution and high-speed capacitance measurement circuit is used t...

Recent experiments have shown that nitrogen doping enhances capacitance in carbon electrode supercapacitors. However, a detailed study of the effect of N-doping on capacitance is still lacking. In this paper, we study the doping concentration and the configuration effect on the electric double-layer (EDL) capacitance, quantum capacitance, and total capacitance. It is found that pyridinic and gr...

soil compaction and moisture content are two of the factors that greatly influence variations in crop yield. capacitance-based sensor is a sensitive device for estimating soil water content. in this method of soil moisture content measurement, soil acts as the dielectric of the capacitor. throughout this research work, a capacitance-based moisture sensor that can measure the soil moisture conte...
