Classical discharge theory (Townsend and streamer theory) has limitations in explaining nanosecond pulsed gas discharge. In recent years, the research on based high-energy runaway electrons attracted extensive attention. But so far, there have been few studies of generation mechanism atmospheric-pressure-air plate-to-plate discharge, which seriously hinders application development pulse plasma....

Timing Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) are planar gaseous detectors made with a combination of metallic and resistive electrodes, delivering time resolutions around 50 ps σ and efficiency up to 99% for MIPs. In this work we describe the development and test of an electrically shielded timing RPC array for crosstalk-free time measurements in high granularity time-of-fight (TOF) systems, as the I...

introduction thermal processing has a huge impact on the textural attribute of the final food product and texture is a major factor contributing the overall quality of food. ohmic heating is an advanced thermal processing method in which heat is internally generated within foods by passing an alternating electric current through them. ohmic heating can volumetrically heat the entire mass of a f...

High temperature cyclic voltammetry on microsamples was used for the investigation of the electrochemical stability of BIMEVOX.10 materials. The electrochemical measurements were performed on a three-electrode cell of the type: PtumicrosampleuYSZuPt with the interface PtuYSZ as a pseudo reference electrode. The experiments were performed in nitrogen containing a small quantity of oxygen. The ce...

Nanostructured manganese cobalt oxide spinel (MnCo2O4) are prepared by co-precipitation method and calcined at 650 and 750°C. Morphological studies show that by increasing the calcination temperature from 650 to 750°C, morphology of the particles changes from quasi-plate to polyhedral. The MnCo2O4 calcined at 650°C could deliver an initial discharge capacity of 1438 mAh g-1 under current densit...

Electrostatic actuators are used as voltage-controlled oscillators or resonators in high frequency applications. The change in deflection of a cantilever beam due to an applied voltage leads to change in capacitance between the plates of the beam. However, the range of operation of these devices is limited due to the nonlinear nature of the applied electrostatic forces as the cantilever beam mo...

Pulsed electric field treatment is now widely used in diverse biological and medical applications: gene delivery, electrochemotherapy, and cancer therapy. This minimally invasive technique has several advantages over traditional ablation techniques, such as nonthermal elimination and blood vessel spare effect. Different electrodes are subsequently developed for a specific treatment purpose. Her...

This paper concerns the influence of moving an auxiliary limiting cylinder in X-Y directions on the electrostatic field and corona onset voltage of the dual electrode system employed in the electrostatic filtration process resulting in a “Tri-electrode” system. The Tri-electrode system is applied in order to control the field around the ionized wire and on the ground plate. Accurate calculation...

With the escalating demands for downsizing and functionalizing mobile electronics, flexible electronics have become an important aspect of future technologies. To address limitations concerning junction deformation, we developed a new connection method using a film-type connector that is less than 0.1 mm thick. The film-type connector is composed of an organic film substrate, a UV-curable adhes...
