nowadays, high-voltage circuit breakers have reached such high short-circuit capabilities that testing them under the full rated voltage is generally not possible with direct tests, and they are conducted by using the synthetic test methods. although the phenomena associated with making tests is of particular importance especially in case of load break switches, but making tests are rather disr...

In order to ensure the reliable interruption of high voltage direct current circuit breaker (HVDC CB), breaking test HVDC CB plays an important role in its performance verification. this paper, process is analyzed, and equivalent requirements for are summarized. current, transient (TIV) duration short, which leads insufficient stress. A new synthetic testing CBs proposed, can solve problem TIV ...

Simulations and analysis in the previous chapter are based on parameters for the λ cI system. Here, we test those predictions experimentally by building a synthetic circuit using the λ cI repressor and other characterized circuit elements in E. coli bacteria. The synthetic circuit uses three fluorescent proteins so that noisy gene expression can be monitored with time-lapse microscopy. To apply...

Synthetic biology has potential spaceflight applications yet few if any studies have attempted to translate Earth-based synthetic tools into spaceflight. An exogenously inducible biological circuit for protein production in Arabidopsis thaliana , pX7-AtPDSi (Guo et al. 2003), was flown ISS and functionally investigated. Seedlings were grown a custom built 1.25 U plant greenhouse. Images recorde...
