OBJECTIVE To examine the relative effectiveness of ice therapy and/or pulsed electromagnetic field in reducing pain and swelling after the immobilization period following a distal radius fracture. METHODS A total of 83 subjects were randomly allocated to receive 30 minutes of either ice plus pulsed electromagnetic field (group A); ice plus sham pulsed electromagnetic field (group B); pulsed e...

We demonstrate the feasibility of a novel microwave power standard based on the electromagnetic interaction with laser-cooled atoms. Under the effect of the radiation, the internal state populations undergo a Rabi flopping oscillation. Measurement of the oscillation frequency allows the determination of the electromagnetic field strength. The measurements are made over a dynamic range of 18 dB ...

In the paper, an optical system used in radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic field measurements is described. A new design of an optically powered and controlled modulated scatterer driven by a plastic optical fibre (POF) applied in modulated scatterer technique (MST) is presented.

J.M. Gonzalez, M. Navarro, C. Puente, J. Romeu and A. Aguasca Measurements: To verify the active region scalability predicted by the numerical simulations, an electromagnetic-field measurementtechnique based on infra-red thermograms was used. 'Infra-red thermography is a technique based on the measurement of the transformation into heat of energy absorbed by a lossy material when an electromagn...

In this work the electromagnetic modeling activities of the Electromagnetics and Matter Research Group (GEM) at the Technical University of Cartagena are reviewed. In particular, waveguide inverse permittivity measurement techniques, neural network devices modeling and efficiency and electric field uniformity achievement for multimode ovens by using dielectric moulds are reviewed. Additionally,...

In this paper, a D-dot electric field sensor and a fiber-optic transmission electric field sensor are developed for measurement of electromagnetic pulse. The D-dot sensor is a differential model sensor without source and has a simple structure. The fiber-optic transmission sensor is in the type of small dipole antenna, which uses its outside shielding layer as a pair of antennas. Design of the ...
