Ionisation can occur in the soil when high impulse currents are subjected to grounding systems. This occurrence is generated by a difference in the dielectric strength value between the soil and air voids.

Evaluation of Respiratory Impedance in Asthma and COPD by an Impulse Oscillation System
The purpose of this study was to clarify the differences in physiological properties of the airways between asthma and COPD using an impulse oscillation system (IOS).Subjects comprised 95 stable COPD patients, 52 never-smoker asthma patients and 29 healthy never-smokers >60 years old, all matched for age, in whom respiratory impedance was examined by ...

A Study on Frequency Response Functions in Pavement Engineering
Mechanical impedance (MI) defines the ability of a system to vibrate as a consequence of force application. In the recent years, the correlation of this parameter with tire-road noise and other characteristics has gained certain attention.

Impulse Characteristics of Various Soil-Enhancement Material Mixtures
Many studies have demonstrated that a reduction in ground impedance value occurs under high-impulse current magnitudes, due to the ionisation process in soil.

Impedance and impulse response measurements using low-cost components [PDF]
A thin 27-mm-o.d. disk transducer (from Radio Shack 273-060 signaler) is RTV sealed to the end of a measurement tube whose 15 mm i.d. not only approximates the transducer disk's nodal circle but also the i.d. of a clarinet, sax, or trumpet mouthpiece. A 10-mm-o.d.

Parameter Estimation of a Grid-Tied Inverter Using In Situ Pseudo-Random Perturbation Sources
Inverters are playing an increasingly important role in the electrical utility grid due to the proliferation of renewable energy sources. Obtaining inverter models with accurate parameters is, therefore, essential for grid studies and design.

Measurement of impulse noise propagation over natural impedance surfaces [PDF]
The peak sound pressure level decay with distance of the impulse noise from hand grenade simulators has been measured over the following types of surfaces: water, swamp, rocky ground with small bushes, dead grass with sparse snow cover, and dense evergreen forest. The ground impedance is estimated for each surface using the calculation of R. Raspet. H.

Reference values for respiratory system impedance using impulse oscillometry in healthy preschool children [PDF]
PurposeThe normal values for lung resistance and lung capacity of children, as determined by impulse oscillometry (IOS), are different for children of different ethnicities.

The transverse turn-by-turn evolution of a bunch slice after an impulse kick is examined considering chromatic and impedance effects. It is found that by fitting the envelope of the beam slice motion to simulated data the strength of the resistive wall ...
