Neurons generate magnetic fields which can be recorded with macroscopic techniques such as magnetoencephalography. The theory that accounts for the genesis of neuronal magnetic fields involves dendritic cable structures in homogeneous resistive extracellular media. Here we generalize this model by considering dendritic cables in extracellular media with arbitrarily complex electric properties. ...

Abstract—Worldwide, most PILC MV underground cables in use are approaching the end of their design life; hence, failures are likely to increase. This paper studies the electric field and potential distributions within the PILC insulted cable containing common void-defect. The finite element model of the performance of the belted PILC MV underground cable is presented. The variation of the elect...

The ideal transmission cable exhibits little parasitic capacitance between individual internal cable conductors and also between the conductors and the cable shielding. However, transmission cables possessing high parasitic capacitance are becoming increasingly common in the glass coating industry. Cables designed for increased flexibility and reduced costs often provide minimal spacing between...

Material excavation is the primary activity in surface mining operations; and shovel excavators are the primary production equipment in mining industry. The active population of cable shovels is about 2400 units around the world out of which 1700 are 20mt or larger capacity (http://parkerbaymining.com/mining-equipment/ electric-shovels.htm). Joy Global (P&H), Caterpillar (formerly under Bucyrus...

This paper proposes a computer-based recursion algorithm for automatic charge of power device of electric vehicles carrying electromagnet. The charging system includes charging cable with one end connecting gang socket, electromagnetic gear driving the connecting socket and a charging pile breaking or closing, and detecting part for detecting electric vehicle static call or start state. The gan...

Stress grading (SG) layer in cable terminations limits the critical electric field and properties of SG materials are important issues which have to be considered during manufacturing and selecting procedure. In this paper, two different types of (SG) materials are analyzed by both theory and test. According to the applied theory, important parameters as: electrical resistivity, breakdown volta...

[ 1 ] These macroscopic CNT fi bers hold the promise to replace traditional metals for many applications including making stronger and lighter power transmission cables or electronic interconnections, [ 2 ] as well as durable fi eld emission or thermio...

This paper presents a new technique for development of tensegrity structures and their deployment in field, in two different modes strut based and cable based. A prototype module based on a half-cuboctahedron configuration is fabricated using commercially available materials. A new method of deployment is introduced for easy assembling and dismantling in field. The proposed structure and the as...
