The time-harmonic Maxwell equations
1996
In this chapter we shall see that the solution of the time-harmonic Maxwell equations with real coefficients can be transformed to time independent partial differential equations with complex coefficients. Then we introduce a finite element approximation proposed in [Křižek, Neittaanmaki, 1989]. A similar technique is analyzed in [Křižek, Neittaanmaki, 1984b], [Monk, 1992a] (for fully time dependent problems see, e.g., [Monk 1992b,c]).
Maxwell’s Equations
2012
The empirical basis of electrodynamics is defined by Faraday’s law of induction, by Gauss’ law, by the law of Biot and Savart and by the Lorentz force and the principle of universal conservation of electric charge. These laws can be tested – confirmed or falsified – in realistic experiments. The integral form of the laws deals with physical objects that are one-dimensional, two-dimensional, or three-dimensional, that is to say, objects such as linear wires, conducting loops, spatial charge distributions, etc. Thus, the integral form depends, to some extent, on the concrete experimental set-up. To unravel the relationships between seemingly different phenomena, one must switch from the integ…
Observation of inclined EeV air showers with the radio detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory
2018
With the Auger Engineering Radio Array (AERA) of the Pierre Auger Observatory, we have observed the radio emission from 561 extensive air showers with zenith angles between 60 and 84. In contrast to air showers with more vertical incidence, these inclined air showers illuminate large ground areas of several km2 with radio signals detectable in the 30 to 80 MHz band. A comparison of the measured radio-signal amplitudes with Monte Carlo simulations of a subset of 50 events for which we reconstruct the energy using the Auger surface detector shows agreement within the uncertainties of the current analysis. As expected for forward-beamed radio emission undergoing no significant absorption or sc…
A method for detection of muon induced electromagnetic showers with the ANTARES detector
2012
The primary aim of ANTARES is neutrino astronomy with upward going muons created in charged current muon neutrino interactions in the detector and its surroundings. Downward going muons are background for neutrino searches. These muons are the decay products of cosmic-ray collisions in the Earths atmosphere far above the detector. This paper presents a method to identify and count electromagnetic showers induced along atmospheric muon tracks with the ANTARES detector. The method is applied to both cosmic muon data and simulations and its applicability to the reconstruction of muon event energies is demonstrated. © 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Unconditionally stable meshless integration of time-domain Maxwell’s curl equations
2015
Grid based methods coupled with an explicit approach for the evolution in time are traditionally adopted in solving PDEs in computational electromagnetics. The discretization in space with a grid covering the problem domain and a stability step size restriction, must be accepted. Evidence is given that efforts need for overcoming these heavy constraints. The connectivity laws among the points scattered in the problem domain can be avoided by using meshless methods. Among these, the smoothed particle electromagnetics, gives an interesting answer to the problem, overcoming the limit of the grid generation. In the original formulation an explicit integration scheme is used providing, spatial a…
Interference of left and right cerebellar rTMS with procedural learning.
2004
Abstract Increasing evidence suggests cerebellar involvement in procedural learning. To further analyze its role and to assess whether it has a lateralized influence, in the present study we used a repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation interference approach in a group of normal subjects performing a serial reaction time task. We studied 36 normal volunteers: 13 subjects underwent repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on the left cerebellum and performed the task with the right (6 subjects) or left (7 subjects) hand; 10 subjects underwent repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on the right cerebellum and performed the task with the hand ipsilateral (5 subjects) or contral…
A Ferrite Tubular Linear Motor (FTLM): Analysis and design
2015
The electromagnetic linear machines have wide applications in the electromagnetic aircraft launch systems [1] and in transportation systems [2]. Additional energy saving and efficiency can be achieved using a linear motor in the refrigeration application [3]. Linear electromagnetic machines are also very suitable for high-speed packaging, manufacturing sectors and precision positioning. There are different linear motor topologies. Tubular permanent-magnets are particularly attractive since they have a high thrust force density and high efficiency, no end windings, and zero net attractive force between stator and armature. There are various tubular motor topologies, in which the armature may…
STUDIO DI UN AMMORTIZZATORE ELETTROMAGNETICO A RECUPERO DI ENERGIA
2013
Questo lavoro ha come obiettivo principale lo studio teorico e con supporto di software F.E.M. di un dispositivo che consenta recupero energetico da una sospensione automobilistica. In sostituzione allo smorzatore viscoso, che dissipa l’energia cinetica del veicolo a seguito dell’attraversamento di strade sconnesse o ostacoli più marcati, si è usato uno smorzatore elettromagnetico che svolga le funzioni dello smorzatore viscoso consentendo un recupero di energia elettrica. Lo smorzatore elettromagnetico è di tipo a magneti permanenti e il suo funzionamento si basa sul fenomeno dell’induzione elettromagnetica. Il modello matematico descrive il funzionamento dello smorzatore, restituendo i va…
