Abstract: This paper illustrates images of dielectric-barrier discharge (DBD) excitated by repetitive unipolar nanosecond pulses in atmospheric air. Different images are obtained for three barrier ...

Excess sodium in your bloodstream pulls water inside your blood vessels, increasing blood pressure. Table salt is one source, but most sodium in the typical American diet comes from processed foods.

Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is when your blood travels through blood vessels with more force than is considered healthy. When blood pressure is high, it can damage artery and blood ...

Abstract: The electrical performance of outdoor insulators decreases under low air pressure conditions. The ac pollution flashover performance of various types of insulators are investigated in the ...

Here's what to know. What, exactly, are atmospheric rivers? According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), "atmospheric rivers are long, flowing regions ...

Low blood pressure, or hypotension, may be a sign of good health and a decreased risk of heart disease. But not always. At times, continually low blood pressure or a sudden drop in blood pressure ...

This cutoff leads to a diversion. It turns the jet stream into a closed-off low-pressure system. Where many atmospheric river events hit straight from East to West, the closed off low pressure ...

Kosmos 482's lander capsule was built to survive the extreme heat and pressure of Venus's atmosphere, meaning it had a robust heat shield and durable structure. This is why experts think it may ...

Atmospheric rivers are more typical in the West, but this one may bring flooding rainfall and severe storms to the Southeast, Florida and southern Appalachia.
