In the recent years, Rai Research Centre (CRITS) has been involved in investigating solutions to guarantee a satisfactory coverage of Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) service, in the 200 MHz frequency band, for challenging scenarios like tunnels. Preliminary field tests receiving the RF ... Read More
The simplicity, reliability and low costs of electro-mechanical breakers have made them the workhorse for the interruption of low voltage short-circuit currents. In the presence of a short circuit, the contacts of the breaker heat up, and a bridge of molten metal forms between the pair ... Read More
As part of its research, the Group of Electrical Engineering – Paris (GeePs) uses the COMSOL Multiphysics® software for applications such as material modelling in Electrical Engineering, electromagnetic compatibility and electromagnetic non-destructive testing. Some problems involve ... Read More
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been widely recognized as an essential tool that enables the imaging of surface, measuring and localizing many different forces and becoming a standard technique for force spectroscopy at the nanoscale. While conventional AFM is well-developed, recent ... Read More
In the nuclear industry, and particularly at Framatome, mastery of welding processes is essential. Framatome is one of the world leaders in this field and wants to improve even more. The work presented focuses on improving the TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) welding process, and more ... Read More
For reheating steel slabs in the steel industry fossil energy like natural gas or oil-based fuels is commonly used. Induction heating is one possible way on the transition towards a carbon free steel industry. To support the industries ambition to change from furnaces with fossil energy ... Read More
Induction heating (IH) [1] is an electrically driven process useful for decarbonization of the industry. It can be used for electrification of chemical processes to replace traditional heating with gas burner and avoid CO2 emission. This kind of process can be used to heat efficiently ... Read More
Currently, there are a number of promising applications of electromagnetic fields in medical diagnosis and therapy. Some, such as non-invasive monitoring of blood glucose concentration in patients with diabetes or temperature monitoring during hyperthermia, are in the phase of ... Read More
Surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) are electromagnetic waves that travel along a metal–dielectric or metal–air interface, practically in the infrared or visible-frequency. The term "surface plasmon polariton" explains that the wave involves both charge motion in the metal ("surface ... Read More
Nowadays, surge protection devices are widely used in electrical grids to suppress over voltages during transient conditions caused by voltage surges and to prevent damages of industrial or household devices. The working principle is based on the initiation of an arc with a burning ... Read More
