We present the first investigation of electrical corrosion in acupuncture needles after electrical stimulation. Using scanning electron microscopy, we observed the occurrence of electrochemical corrosion on the surface of stainless steel 304 acupuncture needles after electrical stimulation in the tibial muscles of rats. Biphasic pulse electrical stimuli with 10-Hz frequency, 1-mA intensity and ...

This paper deals with characteristics of interior permanent magnet synchronous motor considering anisotropic characteristics of electrical steel sheets. Motor characteristics of back electro-motive force (EMF), d-q axis inductances, and core loss are calculated by FEA considering anisotropy of electrical steel sheets and compared to the results from experiment and general FEA; using single mate...

Recent investigations on magnetic properties of Non-Oriented steel sheets enhance the comprehension of the magnetic anisotropy behaviour of widely employed electrical sheets. Our investigation consists of developing an analytical model to consider these magnetic properties while modelling electromagnetic systems. From rotational measurements, the anhysteretic curves are interpolated in order to...

The performance of vibration power generation using the inverse magnetostrictive effect increases with increasing its device size. In this study, grain-oriented electrical steel that can be largely produced was investigated as a core material, U-shaped unimorph at laboratory scale. (16 mm long 1.4 mm2 cross-section) rolling direction (RD) along stress exhibited effective open-circuit voltage 0....
