Analysis of electrical injury in a Level I southern Taiwan trauma center

open access: yesFormosan Journal of Surgery, 2018
Background: Electrical injuries are potentially devastating in many ways. This study aimed to profile the epidemiologic characteristics and outcome of these patients in a Level I trauma center in Southern Taiwan. Methods: A retrospective review of 34 (1.

Electrical burn injury: a five-year survey of 682 patients. [PDF]

open access: yesTrauma Mon, 2014
Background: Electrical burn is less prevalent in comparison to other forms of burn injuries, however this type of injury is considered as one of the most devastating due to high morbidity and mortality.

Brain hemorrhage after electrical burn injury: Case report and probable mechanism.

open access: yesSurg Neurol Int, 2016
Background: High-voltage electric injury may induce lesion in different organs. In addition to the local tissue damage, electrical injuries may lead to neurological deficits, musculoskeletal damage, and cardiovascular injury.

High-Voltage Electrical Burn Requiring Urgent Scalp Reconstruction after Developing a Brain Abscess. [PDF]

open access: yesEur Burn J
Electrical burn injuries to the scalp are at risk of extensive tissue damage and neurological complications. We present the case of a patient who came into contact with a high-voltage power line while cherry picking, resulting in a large full-thickness ...

Physics of plasma burn-through and DYON simulations for the JET ITER-like wall [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Fusion, Vol.53, No.8, August 2013, p.083024, 2013
This paper presents the DYON simulations of the plasma burn-through phase at Joint European Torus (JET) with the ITER-like wall. The main purpose of the study is to validate the simulations with the ITER-like wall, made of beryllium. Without impurities, the burn-through process of a pure deuterium plasma is described using DYON simulations, and the ...

Laser ignition of an optically sensitised secondary explosive by a diode laser [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
As a green technology, laser ignition of a relatively insensitive secondary explosive has been experimentally investigated. The explosive, hexanitrostilbene (HNS), was doped with one of two optical sensitizers, carbon black or a laser absorbing dye ...

Macroscopic polarization in the nominally ergodic relaxor state of lead magnesium niobate [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Physics Letters Vol. 117, 102901 (2020), 2020
Macroscopic polarity and its dynamic response to external electric fields and temperature in the nominally ergodic relaxor phase of pristine lead magnesium niobate crystals and ceramics, Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3 (PMN), were investigated. Dynamic pyroelectric measurements provide evidence for persistent macroscopic polarity of the samples. Annealing experiments

Plasma burn-through simulations using the DYON code and predictions for ITER [PDF]

open access: yesPlasma Physics and Controlled Fusion, Vol.55, No.12, December 2013, p.124032, 2014
This paper will discuss simulations of the full ionization process (i.e. plasma burn-through), fundamental to creating high temperature plasma. By means of an applied electric field, the gas is partially ionized by the electron avalanche process. In order for the electron temperature to increase, the remaining neutrals need to be fully ionized in the ...

Boundary Attention Mapping (BAM): Fine-grained saliency maps for segmentation of Burn Injuries [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Burn injuries can result from mechanisms such as thermal, chemical, and electrical insults. A prompt and accurate assessment of burns is essential for deciding definitive clinical treatments. Currently, the primary approach for burn assessments, via visual and tactile observations, is approximately 60%-80% accurate.

An alternative method to free flap for distal leg and foot defects due to electrical burn injury: distally based cross-leg sural flap.

open access: yesUlusal Travma Ve Acil Cerrahi Dergisi-turkish Journal of Trauma & Emergency Surgery, 2016
BACKGROUND High voltage electrical injuries can cause devastating results especially in distal extremities. Although free flaps are the golden standards for the reconstruction of these defects, sometimes local flap alternatives are more useful.
