Hyperloop is a future concept of mass transportation proposed by Elon Musk. It uses electromagnetic propulsion to accelerate a passenger or cargo pod through a low-pressure tube. HYPED, the University of Edinburgh’s Hyperloop Team has created a prototype that uses linear halbach arrays ... Read More
Various types of FI-Relays are built in electrical protective residual current devices (RCD). They are all electromechanical assemblies that trip at appearance of residual currents (i.e. fault or earth leakage current) and consequently break main contacts of RCD. FI relays are very ... Read More
The study of light scattering by optically resonant nanostructures is a field of growing interest as a result of the rapid progress in nanophotonics in the last decade. Contrary to their plasmonic counterparts, high-index dielectric structures exhibit low optical losses and different ... Read More
Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) phenomenon is well known for its detection sensitivity, however, to better understand how it works a better insight needs to be developed on the physics behind the phenomenon. The physical aspects known to produce SERS effect are the use of ... Read More
Single turn coils produce AC and transient magnetic fields in pulsed magnetic technologies for which magneto-harmonic and transient magnetic analysis can be primarily performed. We suggest studying one single turn coil example made of a conducting massive coil, an optional conducting ... Read More
Introduction: The Gigahertz Transverse Electromagnetic (GTEM) cell is a fundamental tool for calibration purposes and for studies on Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC), being able to emulate an incident plane wave (TEM mode) on equipment under test in the GHz frequency band. This ... Read More
An simple analytical model for the calculation of the resonance frequency of coils typical consists of a network of inductance, capacitance and resistance. Calculating these three parameters based on spatial geometry is not easy in most cases. The finite element method as used in COMSOL ... Read More
Additive Manufacturing is revolutionizing the industrial sector for complex and individualized metallic components. The most limiting factor of the widely established laser beam melting technology is the scan velocity due to inertia of the mirrors [1]. In electron beam melting (EBM), ... Read More
Arc current welding is a widespread process in heavy industry for the assembly of metallic components. In order to ensure the good quality of assemblies welds, it is appropriate to master the welding process but also to have a deep understanding of interactions with the weld pool and ... Read More
Dielectric elastomers are a promising group of smart materials, which finds application within many fields such as soft robotics, wave-energy harvesting, and loud speakers. A dielectric elastomer consists of a thin, stretchable polymer film sandwiched between two compliant electrodes. ... Read More
