Critical arcs detection in influence networks
The influence class of network problems models the propagation of influence (an abstraction of cascading beliefs, behaviors, or physical phenomena) in a network. Such problems have applications in social networks, electrical networks, computer networks, viral spreading, and so on.

Arc Fault Protection and Detection
Arc faults in electric circuits are recognized as an important cause of fire. The first Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter (AFCI) has been patented in 1980 in the United States. AFCI is a device designed to detect electric arc faults which was prescribed for use by the National Electric Code (NEC, US Wiring Regulation) in January 2008.

Novel Series Arc Fault Detector Using High-Frequency Coupling Analysis and Multi-Indicator Algorithm
In the field of arc fault detection, it is universally acknowledged that it is very hard to judge whether there is an arc fault through signals of the main line when a masking load (such as air compressors, lamps with dimmers, and so on) is in parallel ...

Testing System for the On-Site Checking of Magneto-Thermal Switches with Arc Fault Detection
Arcing is a harmful condition that can lead to electrical fires. The U.S. National Electrical Code requires the installation of electric arc breakers in all residential areas. However, such devices can fail, and therefore, may not work when needed.
