The national standards on measuring the breakdown voltage of liquid dielectrics are considered, in particular, the measurement procedure and the measuring cell main parameters. The breakdown voltage of PDMS-1000, PDMS-12500 and PDMS-30000 liquids produced by various manufacturers was measured, and the main problems faced in carrying out measurements were identified. It is shown, using the example of polydimethylsiloxane liquid dielectrics, that after breakdown of viscous liquids, a channel is produced in them, which consists of gas bubbles held by the surface tension force, due to which the channel may in many cases persist for a long time. Theoretical calculations confirmed by an experiment were performed, based on which the velocity of air bubbles in polydimethylsiloxane liquids can be estimated. A conclusion has been drawn about the necessity to increase the time intervals between individual measurements, as well as the time interval before the start of measurements after pouring the test liquid into the measurement cell. It is shown that visual control of the interelectrode region and a special method of mixing the liquid are also necessary. It can be stated based on the accomplished study that the existing standards for breakdown voltage measurements in viscous liquids need to be refined.

The shape, latency and amplitude of changes in electrical brain activity related to a stimulus (Evoked Potential) depend both on the stimulus parameters and on the background EEG at the time of stimulation. An adaptive, learnable stimulation system is introduced, whereby the subject is stimulated (e.g. with light), whenever the EEG power is subthreshold and minimal. Additionally, the system is conceived in such a way that a certain number of stimuli could be given within a particular time interval. Related to this time criterion, the threshold specific for each subject is calculated at the beginning of the experiment (preprocessing) and adapted to the EEG power during the processing mode because of long-time fluctuations and trends in the EEG. The process of adaptation is directed by a table which contains the necessary correction numbers for the threshold. Experiences of the stimulation system are reflected in an automatic correction of this table. Because the corrected and improved table is stored after each experiment and is used as the starting table for the next experiment, the system >learns<. The system introduced here can be used both for evoked response studies and for alpha-feedback experiments.

The stability properties of a vortex lens are studied in the quasi geostrophic (QG) framework using the generalized stability theory. Optimal perturbations are obtained using a tangent linear QG model and its adjoint. Their fine-scale spatial structures are studied in details. Growth rates of optimal perturbations are shown to be extremely sensitive to the time interval of optimization: The most unstable perturbations are found for time intervals of about 3 days, while the growth rates continuously decrease towards the most unstable normal mode, which is reached after about 170 days. The horizontal structure of the optimal perturbations consists of an intense counter-shear spiralling. It is also extremely sensitive to time interval: for short time intervals, the optimal perturbations are made of a broad spectrum of high azimuthal wave numbers. As the time interval increases, only low azimuthal wave numbers are found. The vertical structures of optimal perturbations exhibit strong layering associated with high vertical wave numbers whatever the time interval. However, the latter parameter plays an important role in the width of the vertical spectrum of the perturbation: short time interval perturbations have a narrow vertical spectrum while long time interval perturbations show a broad range of vertical scales. Optimal perturbations were set as initial perturbations of the vortex lens in a fully non linear QG model. It appears that for short time intervals, the perturbations decay after an initial transient growth, while for longer time intervals, the optimal perturbation keeps on growing, quickly leading to a non-linear regime or exciting lower azimuthal modes, consistent with normal mode instability. Very long time intervals simply behave like the most unstable normal mode. The possible impact of optimal perturbations on layering is also discussed.

Background. Radiofrequency (RF-) assisted liver resection devices like the Habib sealer induce a necrotic resection plane from which a small margin of necrotic liver tissue remains in situ. The aim of the present paper was to report our long-time experience with the new resection method and the morphological characteristics of the remaining necrotic resection plane. Methods. 64 RF-assisted liver resections were performed using the Habib sealer. Followup was assessed at defined time points. Results. The postoperative mortality was 3,6% and morbidity was 18%. The followup revealed that the necrotic zone was detectable in all analyzed CT and MRI images as a hypodense structure without any contrast enhancement at all time points, irrespectively of the time interval between resection and examination. Conclusion. Liver resection utilizing radiofrequency-induced resection plane coagulation is a safe alternative to the established resection techniques. The residual zone of coagulation necrosis remains basically unchanged during a followup of three years. This has to be kept in mind when evaluating the follow up imaging of these patients.

Nowadays, there are various devices to detect the power quality of AC grid, where uncertainty of voltage deviation is an important parameter to investigate the power quality. National standards specify several sinusoidal waveforms to detect it, usually implemented into the detecting devices. But these waveforms are not enough and a novel method of detecting measurement uncertainty of voltage deviation is proposed in this paper. A series of detection waveforms are designed using this method. The simulation results verify that the method is available to measure uncertainty of voltage deviation more accurately. Moreover, it can be used to justify whether the basic measurement time interval of voltage deviation meets IEC standard requirements.

The formal solution for an axially symmetric radiation field in a multilayered, elastic system can be expanded in an infinite series. Each term in the series is associated with a particular raypath. It is shown that in the long‐time limit the individual response functions produced by a step input in particle velocity are given by polynomials in odd powers of the time. For rays which suffer m reflections, the degree of the polynomials is 2m+1. The total response is obtained by summing all rays which contribute in a specified time interval. When the rays are selected indiscriminately, the difference between the magnitude of the partial sum at an intermediate stage of computation and the magnitude of the correct total sum may be greater than the number of significant figures carried by the computer. A prescription is stated for arranging the rays into groups. Each group response function varies linearly in the long‐time limit and goes to zero when convolved with a physically realizable source function.

Different adsorptive mediums and adsorbents’ compounds were chosen to remove arsenic from Yangzonghai Lake wastewater. Results showed that Ca(OH)2, attapulgite, bentonite, LDHs these adsorptive mediums had adsorptive capacities of less than 2.5 mg/g of As removal and it took long time for sediment before monitoring; adsorbents compounds’ results showed Fe2O3 and quartz sands had best removal rate and quartz sands had little removal of arsenic. Both strong anion resin and hydrated ferrous oxide-loaded on polystyrene diethanolamine resin(designated as PDR-HFO) can decrease As concentration to less than 0.01 mg/L reaching national standards for arsenic; anions such as SO42- can not be removed when strong anion resin was regenerated causing its loss of exchange ions; PDR-HFO exhibited excellent adsorptive properties and recyclability.

Abstract We prove scattering of solutions of the loglog energy-supercritical Schrödinger equation $i \partial _{t} u + \triangle u = |u|^{\frac{4}{n-2}} u g(|u|)$ with $g(|u|) := \log ^{\gamma } {( \log{(10+|u|^{2})} )}$, $0 &lt; \gamma &lt; \gamma _{n}$, n ∈ {3, 4, 5}, and with radial data $u(0) := u_{0} \in \tilde{H}^{k}:= \dot{H}^{k} (\mathbb{R}^{n})\,\cap\,\dot{H}^{1} (\mathbb{R}^{n})$, where $\frac{n}{2} \geq k&gt; 1 \left(\text{resp.}\,\frac{4}{3}&gt; k &gt; 1\right)$ if n ∈ {3, 4} (resp. n = 5). The proof uses concentration techniques (see e.g., [ 2, 12]) to prove a long-time Strichartz-type estimate on an arbitrarily long time interval J depending on an a priori bound of some norms of the solution, combined with an induction on time of the Strichartz estimates in order to bound these norms a posteriori (see e.g., [ 8, 10]). We also revisit the scattering theory of solutions with radial data in $\tilde{H}^{k}$, $k&gt; \frac{n}{2}$, and n ∈ {3, 4}; more precisely, we prove scattering for a larger range of $\gamma$ s than in [ 10]. In order to control the barely supercritical nonlinearity for nonsmooth solutions, that is, solutions with data in $\tilde{H}^{k}$, $k \leq \frac{n}{2}$, we prove some Jensen-type inequalities.

Composite structures consisting of precast and cast in‐situ concrete elements are increasingly common. These combinations demand a mechanical model which takes into account the time‐dependent behaviour and analysis of the different ages of the connected concrete components. The effect of creep and shrinkage of the different concrete components can be of relevance for the state of serviceability, as well as for the final state. The long‐time behaviour of concrete can be described by the rate‐of‐creep method, combined with a discretisation of time. The internal forces are described for each time interval using a system of linear differential equations, which can be solved by Laplace‐transform.

Abstract In this paper, we focus on CMF signal processing and aim to resolve the problems of precision sharp-decline occurrence when using adaptive notch filters (ANFs) for tracking the signal frequency for a long time and phase difference calculation depending on frequency by the sliding Goertzel algorithm (SGA) or the recursive DTFT algorithm with negative frequency contribution. A novel method is proposed based on feedback corrected ANF and Hilbert transformation. We design an index to evaluate whether the ANF loses the signal frequency or not, according to the correlation between the output and input signals. If the signal frequency is lost, the ANF parameters will be adjusted duly. At the same time, singular value decomposition (SVD) algorithm is introduced to reduce noise. And then, phase difference between the two signals is detected through trigonometry and Hilbert transformation. With the frequency and phase difference obtained, time interval of the two signals is calculated. Accordingly, the mass flow rate is derived. Simulation and experimental results show that the proposed method always preserves a constant high precision of frequency tracking and a better performance of phase difference measurement compared with the SGA or the recursive DTFT algorithm with negative frequency contribution

The paper reflects the nature of the main technological measures that are carried out at specialized enterprises (sites) for processing waste disposal of self-propelled machines in the agro-industrial complex. Waste generation occurs at all stages of the life cycle. The product life cycle includes a number of stages, each of which involves the use of specific types of work, in the course of which there are production and consumption waste (hereinafter — waste). Considering the full life cycle of the machine, it should be understood that the production stage of the machine can last for a long time. But the time characteristic of making a particular machine at this stage will be equal to the time interval associated with making a particular instance of the machine.
