On the basis of the breakdown criterion and the equation of continuity of electrons in air, the amplitude and energy parameters of the electric strength of air in the surface antenna of a powerful microwave relativistic generator are determined when pulses are emitted with a trapezoidal envelope. Triangular and rectangular envelopes were considered as boundary cases of a trapezoidal envelope. The dependence of the parameters of electric strength on the shape of the envelope has been established. The calculation of the dependences of the breakdown field and the maximum permissible energy in a flat aperture on the pulse duration in the range of realizable durations of powerful relativistic microwave generators is carried out. For the same duration, the largest breakdown field has a pulse with a triangular envelope, and the smallest a pulse with a rectangular envelope. Wherein a pulse with a triangular envelope has the lowest maximum permissible energy, and a rectangular one has the highest. The relationships between the maximum permissible energy and the breakdown field for the pulses under consideration are determined. With the same maximum permissible peak amplitude, the highest energy has a pulse with a triangular envelope, and the smallest a pulse with a rectangular envelope.

Butt welding tests of 1.5 mm thickness Ti–6Al–4V were treated by conventional gas tungsten arc welding (C-GTAW) and ultrahigh frequency pulse GTAW (UHFP-GTAW). The low cycle fatigue (LCF) experiments were conducted on the welded joints. The results of fatigue experiment showed that the number of fatigue cycles was increased with UHFP-GTAW. Changes in the microstructure resulting from reduced heat input were expected to enhance the fatigue propagation resistance. The morphology of the martensites in fusion zone was smaller compared to C-GTAW process, and a larger distribution density of basketweave structure was also obtained by UHFP-GTAW. Furthermore, the decreased fatigue crack rate was accompanied as the increased grain boundaries produced by the reduced grain size in fusion zone. Observation of fatigue fractographs revealed that the UHFP-GTAW has obvious slip traces at fatigue initiation sites and more deep secondary cracks in the crack propagation regions associated with the smaller dimples of final fracture zones. The proportion of propagation regions was much larger than C-GTAW. As a result, it can be considered as the representation of the improvement in ductility.

In this study, 2198 Al-Li alloy, a low density and high-performance material for aerospace equipment, was welded using ultrahigh-frequency pulse alternating current with cold metal transfer (UHF-ACCMT). Influence of different ultrahigh-frequency on the formation, porosity, microstructure, microhardness and tensile strength of the welded joints were investigated. The results showed that the coupled ultrahigh-frequency current generated electromagnetic force to stir the liquid metal of molten pool. The weld formation became much better with metallic luster and uniform ripples at frequency of 60 kHz and 70 kHz. The porosity was the minimum at frequency of 60 kHz. Furthermore, the molten pool was scoured and stirred by the electromagnetic force which provided the thermal and dynamic conditions for nucleation and grain refinement, the width of fine equiaxed grain zone became larger, and the number of equiaxed non-dendrite grains increased. With the grain refining and crystallize transition, the average microhardness and tensile strength of the joints at frequency of 60 kHz reached up the highest value, 116 HV0.1 and 338 MPa, respectively. The fracture of the welded joints presented the characteristics of quasi-cleavage fracture.

Health of dairy cows ensures human health, so it is important that dairy products do not contain antibiotics that are used to treat any inflammation, including mastitis. In Russia at present, the problem of mastitis in cows exists with both attached and loose housing of cows. Mastitis of dairy cows are the great problem in milking husbandry. Losses from mastitis in milk yield can reach 15-20%. The main reasons for the occurrence of nonspecific mastitis of cows are the shortcomings of the working components of the milking machine: the degree of deterioration of the nipple rubber and the violation of machine milking technology (the reduction in pre-milking time and vacuum fluctuations account for 70% of all causes). Treatment of mastitis with antibiotics is effective, but not environmentally friendly and unacceptable. For the treatment of inflammation of the udder, it is necessary to use more environmentally friendly methods of treatment, one of which is the exposure to ultra-high frequency electromagnetic field tested by medicine. Use of three types of medical-mobile milking machines with the same method of exposure to ultrahigh-frequency electromagnetic fields on cow's nipples through electrodes in milking cups: LPDA-1-UHF, LPDA-2-UHF and LPDA-UHF-30 M, is described in the article. Author proved that cows with subclinical forms of mastitis recovered faster during milking with exposure to the ultrahigh frequency than when treated by antibiotics, and milking with the ultrahigh frequency device helps to recover 82% of the affected quarters with clinical forms and 100% of cows with subclinical forms of mastitis or with udder irritation. The high efficiency of the method of exposure to electromagnetic fields of the ultrahigh frequency during machine milking by means of medical-mobile milking machines LPDA-UHF for the prevention and treatment of mastitis of cows was shown.
