Damages caused by lightning overvoltages remains to be an important issue for electrical industry, putting limitations for efficiency of transmission and distribution of electrical energy. Modern solutions for lightning protection such as multichamber arresters (MCA) for overhead ... Read More
Hyperloop is a theoretical high-speed mass transportation system which aims to increase efficiency through the use of low-pressure tunnels and contactless propulsion. The University of Edinburgh’s Hyperloop Team (HYPED) has been selected to participate in the SpaceX Hyperloop Pod ... Read More
Used for welding, cutting, deposition by projection, for the treatement of waste, or in analysis for ICP torches, for the synthesis of high purity silica or for the manufacture of nanometric powders or nanoparticules, thermal plasmas are fundamental in processing of materials and in ... Read More
Arc plasma can heat and melt the metal material and flows of molten metal can be affected by several forces such as Lorentz force which is ruled by current, Marangoni force controlled by surface tension, buoyancy force, and arc drag force. Usually, surface tension variation is determined ... Read More
The lymphatic system plays a crucial role in immune surveillance, fluid balance, and the transport of immune cells. Lymph nodes, acting as filtration and immune activation hubs, are essential in detecting and responding to pathogens. Computational modeling of lymph node function offers ... Read More
Line lightning protection devices (LLPD) nowadays are widely used for lightning protection of overhead power lines. LLPD is composed of electrodes in series embedded in silicone rubber which all together forms sequence of spark gaps. When lightning overvoltage is applied it causes ... Read More
Introduction: The main objective of the present work consists in modeling an arc welding heat source to allow predict peak temperature and cooling rate at specific points. The filler metal was deposited on a plate of 32mm thick with no chamfer, in bead on plate configuration, using five ... Read More
Numerical modeling study using the COMSOL Multiphysics has contributed to the evaluations of the thermal and flows structures of the subduction zones, which are directly correlated to the arc volcanism. To understand arc volcanisms, consideration of the back-arc temperature heterogeneity ... Read More
One of the challenges associated with the wire-arc additive manufacture (WAAM) of metals is to provide adequate inert gas shielding, not only for the molten pool, but also for the long reactive metal surface that follows it. For Ti-6Al-4V, it has been shown that increased levels of ... Read More
The knowledge of the behavior of electric arcs between plane electrodes is in high interest due to their presence in industrial applications such as low voltage circuit breakers. In this contribution, numerical simulations of an electric arc displacement due to electro-magnetic forces ... Read More
