Since 1960, polymer insulator has been employed as an outdoor insulator for high voltage ascribed to its excellent aging characteristics compared to those of ceramic insulator. However, in spite of various investigations related to the polymer insulator, its aging mechanism due to acid rain have not been well elucidat…

Following an initial elastic strain, a crystal responds to an increasing external stress by either breaking up into pieces, or else plastically changing its shape before failure. In this paper, the different behaviours of a crystal—brittle cleavage versus ductile deformation—are briefly discussed, and the transition f…

A description is given of a straightforward physical model, which is based on only a few physically meaningful parameters and that allows to describe the PD behaviour resulting from specific insulation defects. It is demonstrated that computer simulations of PD pulse sequences on the basis of this model correspond clo…

Electrical rotating machines are subjected to nonsinusoidal wave shapes when supplied from high frequency inverters. PWM (pulse width modulated) voltage sources with steep wave fronts can be destructive to the insulation and criteria normally used under sinusoidal conditions cannot necessarily be transposed to this ne…

There are many applications where thermoelectric (TE) coolers can be used effectively as power generators. In fact, where temperatures are less than 500 K, TE cooling modules are the best choice for power generation, whether it be from a cost or performance standpoint. The literature available on this subject is scarc…

A series of molecules having a hydroxyl group attached to the end of one terminal chain were found to form a sequence of smectic antiphases, SmÃ, Sm, Sm and Cr, with a growing degree of in-plane molecular ordering. The bilayer structure of the modulated phases is due to the formation, through hydrogen bonding, of mole…

Ferrite cores of magnetic components used in power electronics are often biased with a DC or low frequency premagnetization. Work has shown that a bias field may have significant influence on the remagnetization losses and therefore has to be considered in the component design. Using a precise measurement setup this p…

Density-functional based calculations are used to investigate low energy core structures of 90 ° partial dislocations in diamond and 3C-SiC. In both materials dislocation glide is analysed in terms of kink formation and migration and the fundamental steps to kink migration are investigated. We find the C terminated co…

Abstract Polymer alloys have been used as an alternative to obtain polymeric materials with unique physical properties. Generally, the polymer mixture is incompatible, which makes it necessary to use a compatibilizer to improve the interfacial adhesion. Nylon 6 (PA6) is an attractive polymer to use in engineering appl…

Partial discharges are a symptom of most of the stator winding insulation deterioration mechanisms found in motors and generators rated 6 kV or more. Thus, partial discharge testing has been used for over 40 years as a means of determining the maintenance requirements of such high voltage stators. As the benefits of s…

In flip-chip packaging, an underfill mixture is placed into the chip-to-substrate stand-off created by the array of solder bumps, using a capillary flow process. The underfill mixture is densely filled with solid silica particles to achieve the desired effective coefficient of thermal expansion. Thus, during the flow…

We present adsorption isotherm results for Ne, CH4, and Xe on bundles of close-ended single-wall carbon nanotubes, for coverages above the completion of the first layer. We find a small, sharp, substep present in the second-layer data for Ne and CH4, and a weaker feature, that produces an isothermal compressibility pe…
