Overhead transmission lines are influenced by different factors which are mostly electrical and mechanical. These factors can cause problems for lines, distortions in network and outage of line. In designing transmission lines mechanical properties are evaluated after selecting a suitable conductor and clearance with regard to electrical properties. In lines designing, an important mechanical p...

(PD) and has proven to be an effective treatment of the various motor symptoms. The therapy involves implanting a lead consisting of multiple electrodes in the STN through which continues high frequency electric pulses are delivered. The clinical outcome highly depends on the location of the electrodes within the STN. However, despite careful planning and precise stereotactic surgery, a placeme...

This paper reports on the integration of publicly available HTS conductor electromagnetic performance data into a magnetic Finite Element model for determining critical current distribution along section in spatially fluctuating field. The simulation results from this are shown to be close agreement experimentally obtained results. Typically monitoring quench is done by measuring volt-drop prot...

The paper determines the stationary thermal field in an elliptical cross-section electric conductor coated with insulation. Heat is generated by flow of alternating current (AC) through conducting core, and then dissipated from insulation surface via convection radiation. authors have developed original method for hybrid (analytical–numerical) modeling a field. This has been used to solve relev...

High temperature superconducting (HTS) materials need a high degree of texture over kilometerlong lengths in order to carry the maximum amount of supercurrent for electric power industry applications. One way to achieve the high degree of texture is with the coated conductor architecture. The coated conductor is comprised of the HTS layer epitaxially grown on a textured oxide buffer layer on a ...

Conductor galloping may cause flashovers and even tower collapses. The available conductor galloping monitoring methods often employ acceleration sensors to measure the conductor translations without considering the conductor twist. In this paper, a new sensor for monitoring conductor galloping of transmission lines based on an inertial measurement unit and wireless communication is proposed. A...

BACKGROUND The relationship between epicardial and body surface potentials defines the forward problem of electrocardiography. A robust formulation of the forward problem is instrumental to solving the inverse problem, in which epicardial potentials are computed from known body surface potentials. Here, the accuracy of different forward models has been evaluated experimentally. METHODS AND RE...
