Summary: This paper performs a numerical investigation on the role of wavelength and polarization in relativistic, high-harmonic generation from normal-incidence, two-beam interactions off plasma mirrors. It finds that the two-beam harmonic-generation mechanism is a robust process described by a set of well-defined selection rules.

Summary: This study investigates the electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding effectiveness of an epoxy polymer composite reinforced with carbon fiber mat, short carbon fiber, and multi-walled carbon nanotube in the X-band. The results demonstrate that the orientation of carbon fiber mat has an impact on the EMI shielding, while the addition of short carbon fiber and multi-walled carbon nanotube can enhance the shielding effectiveness. Microstructural analysis reveals a uniform dispersion and strong adhesion of the additives in the epoxy matrix, leading to improved mechanical properties. The homogeneous epoxy composite with enhanced EMI shielding ability and mechanical properties shows promise as an efficient EMI shielding material.

Summary: This study investigates the use of non-thermal plasma in a swirl-induced electrode discharge reactor for the dry reforming of methane. The reactor design promotes better mixing of reactant gases, leading to increased conversion rates. The study examines the effect of flow rates and compositions of CO2/CH4 on conversion, and analyzes the characteristics of the produced syngas and solid carbon. The findings show that higher concentrations of CO2 or CH4 result in increased conversion, while increasing flow rates reduce energy costs.

Summary: The effect of corona aging on the surface potential dynamics and charge trap characteristics of silicone rubber alumina nanocomposite was investigated. The addition of alumina filler increased the surface potential decay time and maximum trap energy. Corona aging led to a reduction in trap depth, and the addition of alumina filler limited the degradation and change in charge trap distribution. An analysis of space charge behavior and comparison of different nanocomposites were presented. Based on the results obtained using the pulsed electro-acoustic technique (PEA), it was concluded that the concentration of space charge and enhancement in the electric field increased with aging duration, with the highest values observed in the case of 60 min corona-aged pure silicone rubber. The recovery of trap distribution after corona discharges was faster for the virgin sample and slower for the sample with 5 wt% alumina.

Summary: This paper reviews the gassing tendency of different insulating fluids in transformers and provides precautionary measures for fault diagnosis. Experimental techniques for identifying gassing due to electrical and thermal stress, as well as stray gassing phenomenon, are explained. Interpretation schemes based on historical data of mineral oil may lead to unexpected errors for alternative fluids. Mineral oil and natural ester have positive gassing tendency, while synthetic ester exhibits negative gassing tendency. Stray gases are mostly caused by C-C bond breakage at normal operating temperature. Hydrogen and ethylene are predominantly formed at lower temperatures. Silicone oil and ester fluids are more stable and produce less gassing compared to mineral oil under simulated hot spots. Additives, oxygen, and water content in insulating fluids can confuse the identification of actual faults. Regeneration of insulating fluids using adsorbents reduces gassing tendency depending on the number of cycles.

It was found that the hygroscopic growth of sand/dust particles has a significant effect on optical attenuation when the relative humidity is above 60%. Based on the double-parameter Kasten model, a proposed optical attenuation model takes into account visibility, particle size, relative humidity, and optical wavelength. Numerical calculations considering the hygroscopicity effect were also performed, and the results were in agreement with the experimental data.

The results show that the bandgap energy of the LED must exceed that of the PV cell for the TPX cell to function in a self-sustaining parallel circuit. Additionally, a narrower bandgap energy for the PV cell and a wider bandgap energy for the LED can improve the performance of the TPX cell in the self-sustaining circuit.
