Time to Breakdown for Type I Motor Winding Insulation Under High‐Frequency High‐Slew‐Rate Square Wave Voltages

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The emergence of (ultra)wide bandgap ((U)WBG)‐based devices has significantly enhanced performance in high‐frequency switching applications, enabling breakthroughs in electric transportation, aerospace, and renewable energy systems. However, it also presents considerable challenges to insulation systems, such as electric motor winding ...

Large‐Scale Applications of Plasma Technologies: Progresses and Challenges

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plasma technologies convert electrical power into energetic electrons, ions, reactive species, radiation and heat, thereby breaking through the bottleneck of purely thermal or chemical routes and bringing impressive changes to our world. This roadmap reviews the progress and challenges of plasma technologies from a large‐scale and application ...

MoNA Bench: A Benchmark for Monocular Depth Estimation in Navigation of Autonomous Unmanned Aircraft System

Drones
Efficient trajectory and path planning (TPP) is essential for unmanned aircraft systems (UASs) autonomy in challenging environments. Despite the scale ambiguity inherent in monocular vision, characteristics like compact size make a monocular camera ideal

A Model for aircraft recovery problem

, 2017
In the airline industry, a myriad of uncertain events take place that lead to the disruption of original flight schedules. Such events include mechanical failure, technical challenges, weather changes, airport and crew related issues. Airlines therefore need a robust, dynamic way of recovering their schedules during disruptions in order to remain ...

Microscopic Stress Analysis of Silicon Carbide Devices Under Overcurrent Conditions in DC Solid‐State Circuit Breakers

IET Smart Energy Systems, EarlyView.
A coupled Saber–TCAD–thermo‐mechanical simulation framework is proposed to evaluate microscopic stresses in SiC MOSFETs under overcurrent operation. Ultrahigh gate‐voltage driving reduces thermal and mechanical stress but increases gate oxide electric‐field stress, revealing a reliability tradeoff for DC solid‐state circuit breakers.

Take Me Home, Country Roads: Choosing Autonomous EVs Over Personal Aviation

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the potential long‐run effects of autonomous and electric vehicles, and a carbon tax, on personal domestic aviation demand in Australia. We estimate a discrete choice disutility model with two travel modes—car and air—using Australian National Visitor Survey data and Bayesian priors. We use multiplicative Fréchet errors,

Shape Optimization of Aircraft Outflow Valve for Maximum Thrust Recovery

Aerospace
The present study demonstrates a step-by-step method for optimizing the outflow valve geometry and maximizing thrust generation. In this system, the skin-mounted OutFlow Valve (OFV) acts as a convergent–divergent nozzle and, as such, the De Laval nozzle ...

Economic problems of aircraft equipment recovery

, 2016
The formation of effects of different order in the process of aircraft equipment recovery is investigated. Changes of idle time of aviation equipment, depending on the cost of its recovery and maintenance are estimated. Economic problems of reasonable implementation of qualitative aircraft recovery are considered.

Preparing to Fight the ‘Wrong War’? Why the UK Defence Budget Must Focus More on ‘National Resilience’

The Political Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This article argues that the current debate over defence spending in the United Kingdom is fundamentally flawed. Too much emphasis is being placed on preparing for a form of warfare with Russia that is unlikely to occur. As this article points out, the Russians actually want to avoid a traditional battlefield confrontation with NATO.

‘Brave, Armed and Watchful’: Domestic Militarization and Contested Femininities During the Kenyan Emergency

Gender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines the militarization of white settler women during the Kenya Emergency (1952–1960), analyzing how their armed participation disrupted and reconfigured colonial gender norms. Drawing on visual and textual archival and newspaper sources, this article explores representations of settler women as maternal guardians of the ...
