Hierarchichal Current Control Design For Electromagnetic Aircraft Launching System

This paper describes an approach to hierarchichal modular control for an electromagnetic aircraft launching system for the aircraft carrier of the future. The purposes are to analyze the possibility of improving the control performance using efficient evaluation of switching conditions, and to explore the different options for the basic control design and the way in which these designs will be ...

Electromagnetic pulsed thermography for natural cracks inspection

Emerging integrated sensing and monitoring of material degradation and cracks are increasingly required for characterizing the structural integrity and safety of infrastructure. However, most conventional nondestructive evaluation (NDE) methods are based on single modality sensing which is not adequate to evaluate structural integrity and natural cracks. This paper proposed electromagnetic puls...

Pulsed Power for the Electra

Electra is a rep-rate Krypton Fluoride (KrF) laser that will be used to develop the technology required for an Inertial Fusion Energy (IFE) Power Plant. Electra will use the same type of architecture as the Nike 60 em amplifier [1], e.g. double-sided electron beam pumping of the laser gas, but it will run at 5 Hz and use technologies that can meet the IFE requirements for efficiency, durability...

Expanding use of pulsed electromagnetic field therapies.

Various types of magnetic and electromagnetic fields are now in successful use in modern medicine. Electromagnetic therapy carries the promise to heal numerous health problems, even where conventional medicine has failed. Today, magnetotherapy provides a non invasive, safe, and easy method to directly treat the site of injury, the source of pain and inflammation, and a variety of diseases and p...
