Time and frequency domain analyses were used to examine the changes in the relationships between the discharges of the inferior cardiac (CN) and vertebral (VN) postganglionic sympathetic nerves produced by electrical activation of the midbrain periaqueductal gray (PAG) in urethan-anesthetized, baroreceptor-denervated cats. CN-VN coherence and phase angle in the 10-Hz band served as measures of ...

We describe the case of a male patient who developed electromyographically confirmed myokymia, dystonia and tremor and clinically confirmed focal dystonia and tremor, secondary to electrical injury. Dystonia is a rare complication of electrical injury. Myokymic discharges secondary to electrical injury are previously unreported. Dystonia and tremor EMG findings were present not only at the clin...

Modern electrical machines employed in transportation applications are required to provide high performance terms of power (and torque) density. At the same time, being these safety-critical, a significant level reliability and/or fault tolerance is expected. Among all factors which can compromise motors reliability, partial discharges (PDs) inception one most crucial, particular for low voltag...
