Many technologies rely on electric discharge phenomena, including consumer electronics, medical devices, and high-voltage power systems. During product development, it is highly beneficial to simulate ...

Electrical discharges in long air gaps represent a complex interplay between material properties, geometric configurations and atmospheric conditions. This phenomenon is governed by the dielectric ...

Tomsk Polytechnic University and TVEL have launched a project to use electric discharges to speed up the decontamination of radioactive concrete. The aim is to allow decontamination of several square ...

Scientists have detected what they believe to be lightning on Mars by eavesdropping on the whirling wind recorded by NASA's Perseverance rover. A team of researchers has made significant strides in ...

Partial discharge in electrical equipment insulation can lead to catastrophic failure. NETA Certified Technicians must understand the reasons partial discharge may occur and how to properly detect, ...

A recent study has found that the electricity produced by an electric eel’s discharge is strong enough to cause the transfer of genetic material from the environment into the cells of nearby animals.

A fleet of electric-powered school buses in El Cajon can send electricity back to California’s grid, thanks to first-of-its kind technology developed by a local company and a partnership with San ...
