Abstract In the paper, a pressure sensor and humidity are designed as supplementary components of textile integrated waveguide (TIW) based on an artificial magnetic conductor (AMC) consisting hexagonal elements. Thanks to AMC, sewing electrically conductive side walls can be eliminated. Since operating in stop-band TIW, sensors do not influence transmission parameters provide additional functio...

For orchestra musicians, synchronized playing under a conductor's direction is necessary to achieve optimal performance. Previous studies using simple auditory/visual stimuli have reported cortico-subcortical networks underlying synchronization and that training improves the accuracy of synchronization. However, it is unclear whether people who played regularly under a conductor and non-musicia...

In general, there are three components making up a lightning protection system for wind turbines. These are the receptors, the down conductor and the grounding grid. Receptors and down conductors are usually found in the more recent wind turbine blades and where the down conductors are normally installed on the internal side of the blade. Consequently, the blades are vulnerable to damage and bu...

 Abstract— This study analytically addresses the problem of neuromuscular electrical stimulation for a planar, multi-layer, anisotropic model of a physiological tissue (referred to as volume conductor). Both conductivity and permittivity of the volume conductor are considered, including dispersive properties. The analytical solution is obtained in the two dimensional Fourier transform domain, ...

We describe a two-dimensional (2D) and a three-dimensional (3D) percolation model for ionic conductor-insulator composites such as copper(I) bromide-titanium dioxide (CuBr-TiO2) or lithium iodidealumina (LiI-Al2O3). These composites present an enhanced conductivity closely related to the insulator concentration. This effect is explained by the formation of highly conducting space charge regions...
