Abstract

 

The presentation will outline analytical and numerical efforts to model experiments in two different areas:

 

a)     time-domain reflectometry for the determination of the dielectric properties of materials.

b)    bubble formation in micro-channels through the exploitation of electric stresses induced on fluid interfaces by a high-voltage source.
