Mitigation of Electro Magnetic Interference by Using C-Shaped Composite Cylindrical Device

The extremely low-frequency (ELF) and its corresponding electromagnetic field influences the yield of CMOS processes in the foundry, especially for high-end equipment such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM) systems, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) systems, focused ion beam (FIB) systems, and electron beam lithography (E-Beam) systems. There are several techniques to mitigate electromagnetic interference (EMI), among which active shielding systems and passive shielding methods are widely used. An active shielding system is used to generate an internal electromagnetic field to reduce the detected external electromagnetic field in electric coils with the help of the current. Although the active shielding system reduces the EMI impact, it induces an internal electromagnetic field that could affect the function of nearby tools and/or high-performance probes. Therefore, in this study, we have used a C-shaped cylindrical device combined with an active shielding system and passive shielding techniques to reduce EMI for online monitoring and to overcome the aforementioned issues. In this study, the active shielding system was wrapped with a permalloy composite material (i.e., a composite of nickel and iron alloy) as a tubular device. A C-shaped opening was made on the tubular structure vertically or horizontally to guide the propagation of the electromagnetic field. This C-shaped cylindrical device further reduced electromagnetic noise up to −5.06 dB and redirected the electromagnetic field toward the opening direction on the cylindrical device. The results demonstrated a practical reduction of the electromagnetic field.

Application and schemes of induction preliminary heating in magnetic-pulse treatment of metals

The features of the processes of magnetic-pulse processing of metals in traditional schemes of technological processes of modern industrial production are highlighted. The work is a brief description of the state, application, and also proposed induction pre-heating schemes in industrial magnetic-pulse processing of metals. A method for increasing the efficiency of performing specified production operations is considered. The use of preheating leads to a significant improvement in the quality of production operations while reducing energy consumption. New directions of magnetic-pulse processing of metals are noted, implying the transformation of the natural repulsive forces of the metal of the processed object into the forces of magnetic-pulse attraction with a decrease in the operating frequencies of the acting fields. A significant decrease in operating frequencies makes it possible not only to go from repulsion to attraction, but also to go from working with ferromagnetic metals to non-ferromagnetic ones. For example, it becomes possible to attract aluminum blanks. Examples of the use of induction heating of metal blanks in modern industry are given. Various devices used for these operations, offered on the modern market, by both domestic and foreign manufacturers, are considered. The physics of Lenz-Joule heat release is described, the result of which is the induction heating of conductors by Foucault currents in the external electromagnetic field of the instrument. Schemes are proposed for the practical implementation of preliminary induction heating during magnetic-pulse processing of metal blanks, allowing the use of both autonomous devices for exciting eddy currents and a stationary connection, for the same purpose, of an additional source of electricity. As a result of the work, the possibility of increasing the efficiency by increasing the plasticity of the metal when heating the workpiece, as well as possible limitations of the described technology associated with an increase in the active resistance of metals with an increase in the Lenz-Joule heat release is noted.

New Symmetries, Conserved Quantities and Gauge Nature of a Free Dirac Field

We present and amplify some of our previous statements on non-canonical interrelations between the solutions to free Dirac equation (DE) and Klein–Gordon equation (KGE). We demonstrate that all the solutions to the DE (possessing point- or string-like singularities) can be obtained via differentiation of a corresponding pair of the KGE solutions for a doublet of scalar fields. In this way, we obtain a “spinor analogue” of the mesonic Yukawa potential and previously unknown chains of solutions to DE and KGE, as well as an exceptional solution to the KGE and DE with a finite value of the field charge (“localized” de Broglie wave). The pair of scalar “potentials” is defined up to a gauge transformation under which corresponding solution of the DE remains invariant. Under transformations of Lorentz group, canonical spinor transformations form only a subclass of a more general class of transformations of the solutions to DE upon which the generating scalar potentials undergo transformations of internal symmetry intermixing their components. Under continuous turn by one complete revolution the transforming solutions, as a rule, return back to their initial values (“spinor two-valuedness” is absent). With an arbitrary solution of the DE, one can associate, apart from the standard one, a non-canonical set of conserved quantities, positive definite “energy” density among them, and with any KGE solution-positive definite “probability density”, etc. Finally, we discuss a generalization of the proposed procedure to the case when the external electromagnetic field is present.

The Electromagnetic Interactions

We briefly review the birth of renormalisation theory at the 1947 Shelter Island conference. We study the particular case of quantum electrodynamics in the example of an electron scattered by an external electromagnetic field. We give the general form of the amplitude in terms of form factors. At one loop the amplitude has both ultraviolet and infrared divergences. We show how to absorb the ultraviolet divergences by means of counterterms whose values are determined by the renormalisation conditions. We also show that at one loop order the electron anomalous magnetic moment is free of divergences, ultraviolet as well as infrared, and present its explicit calculation.

The bosonic and fermionic propagators under an external electromagnetic field in a Euclidean manifold

In this paper, we will calculate the bosonic as well as fermionic propagators under classical homogeneous and constant magnetic and electric fields in a Euclidean space. For this, we will reassess the Ritus' method for calculating the Feynman propagator.

Observing black holes through superconductors

We propose a way to observe the photon ring of the asymptotically anti-de Sitter black hole dual to a superconductor on the two-dimensional sphere. We consider the electric current of the superconductor under the localized time-periodic external electromagnetic field. On the gravity side, the bulk Maxwell field is sent from the AdS boundary and then diffracted by the black hole. We construct the image of the black hole from the asymptotic data of the bulk Maxwell field that corresponds to the electric current on the field theory side. We decompose the electric current into the dissipative and non-dissipative parts and take the dissipative part for the imaging of the black hole. We investigate the effect of the charged scalar condensate on the image. We obtain the bulk images that indicate the discontinuous change of the size of the photon ring.

Analytical Evaluation of Strengthening, Local Internal Stresses and Microderformations in Welded Joint Metal during Wet Underwater Welding

Analysis of structural factor influence on local internal stresses and zones of deformation localization in upper and lower bainite structures in welded joints of low-alloy steel at wet underwater welding was performed. It is established that when welding joints under the water and applying an external electromagnetic field in the metal of the heat-affected zone (HAZ), a finer-grained substructure is formed with a general decrease in the dislocations density and with their uniform distribution. Estimates of the local internal stresses level considering the dislocation density distribution in the structural zones of their localization show that their maximum level is formed in the metal of the HAZ overheating region at welding without the external electromagnetic field along the upper bainite laths boundaries. The upper bainite structure is characterized by forming localized deformation zones, where the most significant dislocation density gradients are observed. This can lower the crack resistance of welded joints. Low values of local internal stresses are characteristic of welded joints obtained in the modes applying an external electromagnetic field. This is facilitated by the overall decrease in the dislocation density and their uniform distribution in the lower bainite structural components, which provides high crack resistance of welded joints.

Representation and Denoising of ECG Signal Using Hybrid Filtering Approach

Electrocardiogram (ECG) signal plays an imperative role in monitoring and examining the health condition of the heart. ECG signal represents the electrical activity of the heat. The most consequential noises that degrade important features in ECG signal are powerline interference noise, external electromagnetic field interference noise, baseline wandering and electroencephalogram noise. The features of ECG signal obtained in time domain is not sufficient for analyzing the ECG signal. As the signal is non-stationary, the time-frequency representation can be used for feature extraction. The Short Time Fourier Transform can be used but its time frequency precision is not optimal. In this current project, we will be able to implement the ideology proposed to overcome the problem among various time frequency transformation. The discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is used which gives effective results for non-stationary signals like ECG signal which may be often contaminated. The combination of Savitzky-Golay filtering and DWT can be used for ECG denoising and feature extraction which has the advantage of preserving the important feature by elimination the noise components. The method is applied for the database which is taken from MIT- BIH arrhythmia and the algorithm is implemented in MATLAB platform.
