An optimized scheme for OLTCs of distribution transformers using flywheel motors
Zhejiang dianliIn the switching process of on-load tap changers （OLTCs） for distribution transformers， electric arcs are likely to occur at the contacts， which have an adverse impact on the service life and normal operation of the equipment.

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

Full-wave modeling of arcs within the ITER ICRF antenna for usage in the simulations and design of the RADAR Arc Detection system [PDF]
EPJ Web of ConferencesThe ITER ICRF antenna [1] has been carefully designed to feature electrical fields below tolerable limits (typically, below 2 or 3 kV/mm depending on the location and orientation) when operating at a maximum voltage of 45 kV.

Specifics of automatic switches commutation testing [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2019 We demonstrate that the most efficient way to extinguish the short-circuit arc is extinguishing inside the camera with an arc extinguishing grid, which splits it into several smaller arcs.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study demonstrates an efficient recycling route for out‐of‐spec AlSi10Mg atomized powders through compaction and arc remelting followed by suction casting. By correlating compaction load, cooling rate, and resulting microstructure, we show that intermediate pressures (50–80 kN) and rapid cooling refine dendrites, reduce porosity, and enhance ...

Statistical properties of Joule heating rate, electric field and conductances at high latitudes [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2009 Statistical properties of Joule heating rate, electric field and conductances in the high latitude ionosphere are studied by a unique one-month measurement made by the EISCAT incoherent scatter radar in Tromsø (66.6 cgmlat) from 6 March to 6 April ...

Influence of an Argon/Silane Atmosphere on the Temperature of a Thermal Plasma
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.The influence of a silane‐doped argon atmosphere on the chemical composition and temperature of a thermal nontransferring argon plasma is investigated using optical emission spectroscopy. As a result of the high amount of free electrons resulting from the stepwise ionization and dissociation of the silane molecule, even a silane addition of 0.01 vol ...

The response of the azimuthal component of the ionospheric electric field to auroral arc brightening [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2000 We have analyzed the response of azimuthal component of the ionospheric electric field to auroral arc activity. We have chosen for analysis three intervals of coordinated EISCAT and TV observations on 18 February, 1993.

Optimal Pricing to Manage Electric Vehicles in Coupled Power and Transportation Networks
, 2016 We study the system-level effects of the introduction of large populations of Electric Vehicles on the power and transportation networks. We assume that each EV owner solves a decision problem to pick a cost-minimizing charge and travel plan.
