Bosonic superfluid transport in a quantum point contact

Jean-Philippe Brantut

We present a microscopic theory of heat and particle transport of an interacting, low-temperature Bose- Einstein condensate in a quantum point contact.We show that, in contrast to charged, fermionic superconductors, bosonic systems feature tunneling proces ...

Variable-stiffness tensegrity spine

Dario Floreano, Davide Zappetti, Enrico Ajanic, Roc Arandes Vilagrasa

Vertebrates, including amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals, with their ability to change the stiffness of the spine to increase load-bearing capability or flexibility, have inspired roboticists to develop artificial variable-stiffness spines. However, ...

Direct currents stimulate carbonate mineralization for soil improvement under various chemical conditions

Lyesse Laloui, Dimitrios Terzis, Patrick Gabriel Yihsiu-Ming Hicher

The present study integrates direct electric currents into traditional calcium carbonate mineralization to investigate electrochemical interactions and the subsequent crystalline growth of CaCO3 bonds in sand. A specific line of focus refers to the effect ...

97.4%-Efficient All-GaN Dual-Active-Bridge Converter with High Step-up High-Frequency Matrix Transformer

Elison de Nazareth Matioli, Armin Jafari, Palliyage Srilak Nirmana Perera, Mohammad Samizadeh Nikooytabalvandani

In this work, we demonstrate a state-of-the-art high step-up/down dual-active-bridge (DAB) converter designed with GaN transistors, to achieve a high efficiency and large power-density. A quasi-planar matrix transformer with high step-up/down ratio is demo ...

Equal Loss Distribution in Duty-Cycle Controlled H-Bridge LLC Resonant Converters

Drazen Dujic, Jakub Kucka

The duty-cycle control is a popular option for current limiting in LLC resonant converters. Such current limiting is required to protect the converter either during the start-up or during an overload. Although this method proved to be effective, the switch ...

Modeling Compact Intracloud Discharge (CID) as a Streamer Burst

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein

Narrow Bipolar Pulses are generated by bursts of electrical activity in the cloud and these are referred to as Compact Intracloud Discharges (CID) or Narrow Bipolar Events in the current literature. These discharges usually occur in isolation without much ...

OPF-based under frequency load shedding predicting the dynamic frequency trajectory

Mario Paolone, Asja Derviskadic, Guglielmo Frigo, Yihui Zuo, Quentin Walger

The paper describes a centralized Under Frequency Load Shedding (UFLS) method, where load shedding decisions are based on the solution of an optimization problem. The proposed approach anticipates the evolution of the grid frequency trajectory by means of ...

Comparison of Different Precision Pseudo Resistor Realizations in the DC-Feedback of Capacitive Transimpedance Amplifiers

Georg Fantner, Jens Anders

In this paper, three different pseudo resistor (PR) realizations are compared regarding their noise and linearity performance within the DC feedback loop of an integrator-differentiator transimpedance amplifier (I-D-TIA). Thanks to its intrinsic shot noise ...

Liquid electromigration in gallium-based biphasic thin films

Stéphanie Lacour, Hadrien Olivier Michaud

Liquid metals have recently gained interest as a material of choice for soft and stretchable electronic circuits, thanks to their virtually infinite mechanical failure strain and high electrical conductivity. Gallium-based thin films are obtained by deposi ...

The Propagation Effects of Lightning Electromagnetic Fields Over Mountainous Terrain in the Earth-Ionosphere Waveguide

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Dongshuai Li

In this paper, a full-wave two-dimensional Finite-Difference-Time-Domain model is developed to evaluate the propagation effects of lightning electromagnetic fields over mountainous terrain in the Earth-ionosphere waveguide. In the model, we investigate the ...
