This paper presents experimental results relating to the preliminary breakdown characteristics in $SF_6/CO_2$ gas mixtures under a highly non-uniform electric field. The impulse pre-breakdown developments are investigated by the measurements of corona current and light emission images. As a result, the preliminary breakdown development mechanisms for both the positive and negative polarities were fundamentally same. The first streamer corona was initiated at the tip of needle electrode, and the leaders developed with a stepwise propagation and bridged the test gap. The pause time of leader pulses in the positive polarity was significantly shorter than that in the negative polarity. Also, the time interval between the first streamer corona onset and breakdown in the negative polarity was much longer than that in the positive polarity. The discharge channel path in the positive polarity was zigzag, and the leader channel in the negative polarity was thicker and brighter than that in the positive polarity.

This paper deals with a kind of the half-space interfacial problem in time domain, requiring the calculation of the horizontal electric field generated by a tiny impulsive current source located horizontally at the interface between an isotropic upper half-space and a uniaxially anisotropic lower half-space. With the Cagniard-de-Hoop method adapted for our interfacial case, we obtain the explicit-form solution for this electric field. We also investigate the impulse radiation in the radial direction. The impulse components of Dirac $\delta$-function type in transient waveforms are important for the understanding of the interfacial far-field characteristics. The uniaxial case is a generalization of the isotropic one, and the explicit solutions of the uniaxial problem in this paper reduce to the solutions of the isotropic problem if the anisotropy is removed.

Purpose: The purpose of the present current study was to examine control of upper limb multi-joint movements with differential coordination stability. To achieve the goals of the study, torque analyses were utilized to answer questions about how torque components were differed among various elbow-wrist coordination patterns. Methods: Eight self-reported right-handed college students (3 males and 5 females, mean age=20.6 yr) were volunteered. The task required participants to rhythmically coordinate the flexion-extension motions of their elbow and wrist with coordination relationship of $0^{\circ}$, $90^{\circ}$, and $180^{\circ}$relative phases between the two joints. Mean relative phase and phase stability (standard deviation of relative phase) were computed to for analysisze of overall coordination performance. To determine the figure out characteristics of torque components in elbow and wrist joints, impulse values of muscle torque (MT) and interactive torque (IT) and MT as a percentage of cycle duration (MT-PCD) were analyzed. Results: Torque results showed that the proximal elbow joint generated motions with mainly muscle efforts regardless of coordination patterns, while the distal wrist joint adjusted the coordination patterns by changing amount of MT. Impulse analyses showed that the least stable $90^{\circ}$ pattern was performed by utilizing a similar coordination strategy of the most stable $0^{\circ}$ pattern. Conclusion: The present current study suggests that the roles of distal and proximal joints differ in order to achieve various multi-joint coordination movements. This study provides information for use in gives an idea to development of rehabilitation or training programs for to persons with an impaired upper limb motor ability.

In this paper, protection coordination between residual current devices and surge protective devices in low-voltage consumer's distribution systems are presented. In the case that a surge protrctive device(SPD) is located on the load side of an residual current device(RCD), when the surge is injected from the source side of the RCD, most of injected surge currents are split into the RCD and the protection coordination between the SPD and RCD is improper, three of 6 specimens experience unintended operation due to test impulse currents. Also when the surges is injected from the load side, a lot of the surge currents is split into the SPD, but a half of test specimens causes nuisance trip. Coordination between SPD and RCD is not valid. When installing SPD, it is important to select SPD after due consideration of the protection voltage level of metal oxide varistor embedded in RCD. It is expected that the results obtained from this work could be useful to improve the protection effects of SPD in low-voltage distribution systems.

We propose a current-mode analog programmable finite-impulse-response (FIR) filter with variable tap circuits. From the circuit simulation, the operation of the 7- tap FIR filter is confirmed. We design and fabricate the 0.0625-step tap circuit using 0.8$\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS technology. The proposed FIR filter has a variable length of taps and variable coefficients, so it has a potential for being used to software defined radio (SDR) terminals.

In this paper we describe streamer propagations characterizing underwater pre-breakdown and breakdown behaviour under impulse voltages. Streamer corona branches in lower resistivities are much thicker and brighter than those in higher resistivities. The negative streamer channels not only have more branches but also widely spread out than the positive streamer channels. The succession of streamer coronas during re-breakdown produces a stepwise propagation. The pre-breakdown currents consist of the conduction current and streamer corona current pulses.

Breakdown characteristics of insulator-liquid nitrogen ($LN_2$) composite insulation for resistor type High $T_c$/ superconducting fault current limiter (HTSFCL) under ac and impulse voltage in $LN_2$ has been studied using model electrode systems. Electrodes for model electrode systems were made of SUS 304 contacted fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) and Au coated sapphire. The breakdown characteristics of model electrode systems were investigated experimentally for FRP thickness ranging from 1 mm to 5 mm. surface distance ranging from 2.5 mm to 7 mm and electrode gap ranging from 1 to 5 mm. The experimental data suggested that the breakdown voltage of model electrode systems in $LN_2$ is highly dependent on the surface distance, electrode gap as well as on the FRP thickness. Also, we had observed discharge traces and puncture due to high-voltage 60-Hz AC stress.

This paper describes the experimental results of a transient impedance characteristics of grounding rods to a square pulse and standard lightning impulse current. The test were performed on single grounding rod($\phi$ 10mm, 1m) and triple-grounding rods( $\phi$ 10mm, 1m) of equilateral triangles with 5m spacing. For measurements of transient impedance, a pulse generator which can produce square wave of 30ns rise time and 20U Pulse duration was designed and fabricated. In the experiment, transient impedance of the grounding systems have been investigated from the recorded potential and current waveforms. The results showed that the value of the transient impedance is quite higher than the stationary resistance, and provide useful information for the value of a grounding system considered transient characteristics under a high frequency condition such as lightning stokes and ground-fault.
