This book was released on 1997-03-18 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can the electric and magnetic fields (EMF) to which people are routinely exposed cause health effects? This volume assesses the data and draws conclusions about the consequences of human exposure to EMF. The committee examines what is known about three kinds of health effects associated with EMF: cancer, primarily childhood leukemia; reproduction and development; and neurobiological effects. This book provides a detailed discussion of hazard identification, dose-response assessment, exposure assessment, and risk characterization for each. Possible Health Effects of Exposure to Residential Electric and Magnetic Fields also discusses the tools available to measure exposure, common types of exposures, and what is known about the effects of exposure. The committee looks at correlations between EMF exposure and carcinogenesis, mutagenesis, neurobehavioral effects, reproductive and developmental effects, effects on melatonin and other neurochemicals, and effects on bone healing and stimulated cell growth.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sustainable and reliable electric power delivery to the users is critical for the well being of the society. Electric power delivery can be interrupted due to faults in the transmission lines, which can be defined as the flow of a current through an improper path of the power grid. Faults in the power line could cause power interruption, equipment damage, personal injury or death. Knowledge about the health condition of the power network helps to predict the possibility of the future fault occurrences due to the aging or failure of the insulators, conductors or towers. There has been significant research conducted in the past to monitor the health condition of the power grid, which has resulted in many types of sensors being commercially available. The time domain refletometer (TDR) type sensors have been developed for detecting a fault in an off-line long range power line. Fiber bragg grating (FPG), partial discharge (PD) and Multiple-Displacement-Current (mDCS) type sensors are able to monitor the health condition of the power line in a limited region or substation side of the power grid. Most of the traditional methods are not able to monitor the entire power grid with a resolution of couple miles. There is a need to develop a technique that would scan the entire network despite its widespread and scattered nature with a good resolution. This dissertation presents a power grid health monitoring technique based on real time tracking of the grid impedance variation at high frequencies. The impedance of the power grid depends on the geometry and physical conditions of the power line. Since faults have their unique impacts on the power grid impedance, it is possible to investigate the health condition of the power grid through comparison of its current and premeasured impedances at higher frequency range. The proposed technique is applicable for both energized and de-energized power networks in real time. A high frequency signal is injected into the mid-section of the desired line segment while the propagation of the injected signal is blocked at the two ends of the power line segments with the proposed sensor architecture. The impedance of the segment can be determined based on the induced voltage on the line and the current passing through the line. The smart sensor network can detect broken conductor, insulator failure, possible tree fall, human and animal contacts to the power lines or measure the clearance of the power line to hazards. The smart sensor hardware and software are designed, prepared and tested. Different fault scenarios are performed in the sample power line network to validate the capability of the sensor to measure the impedance of the line segment with a reasonable accuracy.
