This paper proposes a mathematical model of electric fields caused by high voltage conductors of electric power transmission systems by using a set of second-order partial differential equations. This study has considered the effect of conductor phase-sequence orientation on electric fields emitted around a doublecircuit, extra high-voltage, power transmission line. Six typical-used phase-seque...

BACKGROUND Electrochemotherapy and gene electrotransfer are novel promising treatments employing locally applied high electric pulses to introduce chemotherapeutic drugs into tumor cells or genes into target cells based on the cell membrane electroporation. The main focus of this paper was to calculate analytically and numerically local electric field distribution inside the treated tissue in t...

The sensor probes deployed in the electric fields will cause the distortion in the vicinities, therefore it may significantly affect the accuracy of the measurements in the electric fields. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to separate the electric field distortion due to the spherical sensor probes in a uniform electric field. Moreover, we also investigate the impacts of the spherical...

In this paper, we employ a two-dimensional numerical model to simulate and explore the electrical characteristics of organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs). The spatial distributions of charge and electric field are investigated for structure design of OLEDs. The two-dimensional numerical simulation of the current continuity and Poisson equations are carefully extended to treat the interfaces o...

State-of-the-art devices are characterized by the occurence of large gradients in the electric field. Due to the complex doping profiles which utilize ultrashallow junctions to obtain an optimum tradeoff between short-channel effects and parasitic resistances, two-dimensional numerical simulation of these structures is mandatory. From the modeling point of view, nonlocal and quantum effects gai...

We report numerical simulation of gas temperature of microwave discharge plasma of rare gases by weighted-DSMC method. Our numerical simulation showed that neutral particles are heated by collisions with ions. It is found that the average temperature becomes higher for heavier rare gas discharge plasmas, which agrees with our previous experiments. It is also found that ions are accelerated by a...
