A novel atomic emission spectrometry comprising laser ablation as a sampling source and hollow cathode plasma for the excitation of ablated sample atoms is proposed. In this arrangement, a conventional Grimm-type discharge lamp is employed, but the polarity of the power supply is reversed so that the cylindrical hollow tube acts as a cathode and the glow discharge plasma is produced within this...

When compared to the over-simplified classical skin-effect model, the accurate classical relaxation-effect modelling approach for THz structures at room temperature can be mathematically cumbersome and not insightful. This paper briefly introduces various interrelated electrical engineering concepts as tools for characterizing the intrinsic frequency dispersive nature of normal metals at room t...

AbstractTwo test series were carried out on angle cleat connections between cold-formed channels as beams and rectangular hollow sections support members. The objective of the tests was to deter...

Abstract Under axial compression, the present article analyses and compares behaviour of Plain Concrete filled Nano Silica modified concrete with light gauge steel rectangular columns. In 18 work samples, plain nano silica-modified was tested on sections. Investigations were conducted into several essential variables, including geometry cross-section, tubular thickness steel, depth-to-thickness...

This paper presents the excitation of a longitudinal slot on a hollow rectangular coaxial line by a metal support between two conductors and the fabrication by diffusion bonding of laminated metal thin plates. The measured loss of a straight line is 0.046dB/cm at 60GHz while the simulated one is 0.043dB/cm.

The fall of a magnet through a hollow conducting tube is described. Although this experiment is well known, a detailed treatment by means of a circuit analysis allows us to relate the conductivity of the tube to the characteristic parameters of the experiment.

The Cosserat theory of elastic rods has been used in a wide range of application domains to model and simulate the elastic deformation of thin rods. It is physically accurate and its implementations are efficient for interactive simulation. However, one requirement of using Cosserat rod theory is that the tubular object must have rigid cross-sections that are small compared to its length. This ...
