internal turn-turn faults (ttf) are the most common failures in power transformers, which could seriously reduce their life expectancy. although common protection schemes such as current-baseddifferential protection are able to detect some of the internal faults, some other minor ones (such as ttfs andshort circuit near the neutral point) cannot be detected by such schemes. likewise, these rela...

The induction coil sensors (called also search coils, pickup coils or magnetic loop sensors) are described. The design methods of air coils and ferromagnetic core coils are compared and summarized. The frequency properties of the coil sensors are analyzed and various methods of output signal processing are presented. Special kinds of induction sensors, as Rogowski coil, gradiometer sensors, vib...

Human eyes move continuously, even during visual fixation. These "fixational eye movements" (FEMs) include microsaccades, intersaccadic drift and oculomotor tremor. Research in human FEMs has grown considerably in the last decade, facilitated by the manufacture of noninvasive, high-resolution/speed video-oculography eye trackers. Due to the small magnitude of FEMs, obtaining reliable data can b...

BACKGROUND/AIM Scleral search coils are used to measure eye movements. A recent abstract suggests that the coil can affect the eye by decreasing visual acuity, increasing intraocular pressure, and damaging the corneal and conjunctival surface. Such findings, if repeated in all subjects, would cast doubt on the credibility of the search coil as a reliable investigative technique. The aim of this...
