Analysis of Pollution in High Voltage Insulators via Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy

Molecules, 2020
Surface pollution deposition in a high voltage surface can reduce the surface flashover voltage, which is considered to be a serious accident in the transmission of electric power for the high conductivity of pollution in wet weather, such as rain or fog.

Assessment and projections of sediment budget resilience in Marbella, Spain

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
This paper discusses how the beaches of Marbella, on the southwestern Mediterranean coast of Spain, may no longer stay in their natural resilience envelope due to a critically delicate natural sediment transport balance and a degree of artificialization ...
