Although resuscitation during pregnancy is relatively uncommon and rarely causes death, they have a particularly large impact in terms of the mortality of the unborn child and long-term effects on families and society as whole. In this paper, we present a new 3D finite element model of a ... Read More
This paper investigates a hybrid winding concept for a toroidal inductor by simulating the winding resistance as a function of frequency. The problem of predicting the resistance of a non-uniform and complex winding shape is solved using 3D Finite Element Modeling. A prototype is built ... Read More
An optimization routine is presented to optimize a hybrid winding geometry for a toroid inductor in terms of the DC-resistance. The hybrid winding geometry consist of bended foil pieces connected through traces in a PCB. MATLAB® is used to create a GUI that visually plots the winding ... Read More
This paper describes the implementation of a complete design tool for design, analysis, optimization and production of PCB embedded inductors. The paper shows how LiveLink™ for MATLAB® and COMSOL Multiphysics® make it possible to combine the scripting and calculation power of MATLAB ... Read More
Steam generator (SG) tubes in CANDU® nuclear reactors can lose efficiency in the presence of corrosion and its by-products. Condition monitoring of support structures could help direct maintenance activities and thereby increase SG tube lifetime. Pulsed eddy current (PEC) has been ... Read More
Chemical reactions conducted under microwave irradiation have high reaction rates and high selectivity, but these reaction rates are not always reproducible. To achieve reproducibility, a solid-state microwave source with an ultra precise oscillator, high power amplifier module (HPA), ... Read More
Project X is a proposed proton accelerator complex at Fermilab. The CW LINAC is based on five types of resonators operating at three frequencies: half-wave, spoke, and elliptical. The low beam current for the CW operation of Project X requires cavities to operate at a high loaded Q and, ... Read More
This paper deals with a numerical modelling technique based on finite elements method for computing magnetic field and current density distributions in high temperature Superconducting (HTS) tapes. The model is developed using the T-ῼ formulation for which the degree of freedom (DOF) and ... Read More
Lubricant oil is used to ensure proper functioning of industrial machinery such as turbines, gears, bearings and compressors. Oil analysis is used to detect and quantify the presence of wear metals and other contaminants in the lubricant of oil wetted systems, by sensing the change in ... Read More
Focused Impedance Method (FIM), a new technique of electrical impedance measurement having high sensitivity in the central region, can sense the change in transfer impedance of an object embedded at a shallow depth within a volume conductor of unchanging background conductivity, using ... Read More
