Mechanism of Quasi‐Power‐Frequency Resonant Overvoltage Triggered by Multiple Lightning Strikes in High‐Voltage Alternating Current Systems Equipped With Shunt Reactor

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the generation mechanism of quasi‐power‐frequency resonant overvoltage triggered by multiple lightning strikes in high‐voltage alternating current (HVAC) systems equipped with shunt reactors. Based on field measurements from a 500 kV AC system, equivalent and simplified circuit models have been established to analyse ...

The Electrical Conductivity of the Lower Mantle From High‐Pressure/High‐Temperature Measurements of Pyrolite and Ten Years of Geomagnetic Observations

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Electromagnetic sounding coupled with experimental measurements of electrical conductivity (EC) can provide valuable constraints on the thermochemical state of Earth's lower mantle. Here, we report a new set of experimentally determined EC values of pyrolite, a candidate composition of the lower mantle, between 25 and 80 GPa at room ...

The mathematics of varistors

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2016
A three-dimensional model of the varistor device is proposed. The thermal and electric conductivity of the material are taken to depend, in addition to the electric potential, on the temperature. Two theorems of existence and uniqueness of solutions for the boundary-value problem which determine the potential and the temperature inside the device are ...

Strain‐Induced Redistribution of Point Defects in ZnO Nanoparticles

open access: yesSmall Science, Volume 6, Issue 3, March 2026.
Powder compaction generates local strain effects in ZnO nanoparticles. This alters the abundance of intrinsic point defects and impacts the semiconductor's electronic structure. Such changes were analyzed by a combination of spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations and emphasize the importance of strain effects in the design and ...

Advances in the synthesis of ZnO nanomaterials for varistor devices [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Materials Chemistry C, 2013
ZnO based varistors are widely used for overvoltage protection in many electrical and electronic circuits, at voltages ranging from a few to over a million volts. By careful control of the microstructure, through nano-structuring by chemical routes, it should be possible to produce varistors with high breakdown voltage (Vc), as this is proportional to ...

Grain Boundary Space Charge Engineering of Solid Oxide Electrolytes: Model Thin Film Study

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 14, 16 February 2026.
This study demonstrates unprecedented control of grain boundary electrical properties in solid electrolytes. Selective diffusion of cations through grain boundaries in thin films enables 12 orders of magnitude variation in ionic resistance, proving that systematic chemical modification of grain boundary electrical properties is feasible.
