Non-uniform Pollution Method and Pollution Flashover Characteristics of Transmission Line Insulators
At present, pollution of insulators in artificial contamination test is done by uniform smearing, but natural pollution, affected by wind, raining, insulator shape, pollution, pollutant particle size and other factors, is a non-uniform accumulation on ...

Simulation on Deposition Characteristics of Contamination Particles in Fog-Haze Environment
Fog-haze weather can aggravate the particles deposition on the insulator surface, which will cause pollution flashover. In this paper, the multiphysics software COMSOL was used to numerically simulate the particle deposition characteristics on the ...

Full Bulk Spin Polarization and Intrinsic Tunnel Barriers at the Surface of Layered Manganites [PDF]
Transmission of information using the spin of the electron as well as its charge requires a high degree of spin polarization at surfaces. At surfaces however this degree of polarization can be quenched by competing interactions.
