Investigations on the Heat Transfer between an Electrical Heating Rod and a Rail for Heated Railway Switch Points

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
Electrical heating rods are a commonly used application for switch point heating in order to keep switch points free from ice and snow. Clamps made of spring steel usually attach the heating rod to the rail.

Controllable high voltage source having fast settling time [PDF]

open access: yes, 1975
A high voltage dc stepping power supply for sampling a utilization device such as an electrostatic analyzer has a relatively fast settling time for voltage steps. The supply includes a waveform generator for deriving a low voltage staircase waveform that

Speciation Through the Lens of Population Dynamics: A Theoretical Primer on How Small and Large Populations Diverge

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
Population size and dynamics fundamentally shape speciation by influencing genetic drift, founder events, and adaptive potential. Small populations may speciate rapidly due to stronger drift, whereas large populations harbor more genetic diversity, which can alter divergence trajectories. We highlight theoretical models that incorporate population size

Exploring lipid diversity and minimalism to define membrane requirements for synthetic cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Designing the lipid membrane of synthetic cells is a complex task, in which its various roles (among them solute transport, membrane protein support, and self‐replication) should all be integrated. In this review, we report the latest top‐down and bottom‐up advances and discuss compatibility and complexity issues of current engineering approaches ...

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...

Estimation of Critical Resistive Leakage Current of polymer housed ZnO surge arrester by electro-thermal modelling

open access: yesJournal of Electrical Systems and Information Technology, 2018
In this study, a MATLAB/Simulink software based electro-thermal model of the polymer housed, gapless, 60 kV ZnO surge arrester is used for estimating the ‘ Critical Resistive Leakage Current (CRLC)’.
