A Mechanism Of Electric Charge Losses In Adiabatically Compressed Ferroelectrics, Sergey I. Shkuratov, Jason Baird, Vladimir G. Antipov, Jay B. Chase

Mining Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

A ferroelectric depolarized by high strain-rates induced by the passage of adiabatic shock waves releases a high-density electric charge, initiating the generation of high voltage and megawatt power levels. Additionally, this depolarization process alters physical and mechanical properties that might cause energy and electric charge losses in the ferroelectric materials. We report, herein, the results of an experimental study of electric charge losses in Pb0.99(Zr0.95Ti0.05)0.98Nb0.02O3 and Pb0.99(Zr0.52Ti0.48)0.99Nb0.01O3 ferroelectrics subjected to shock compression. We found that electric charge losses mainly occur in the compressed zone of ferroelectric elements, i.e., shock compression is an essential part of the charge loss mechanism. Based …

GPR impedance inversion is an effective method to obtain accurately the intrinsic parameters of the subsurface medium. This method relies on low frequency information provided by logging data, but it is rarely accompanied by drilling in practical applications. To solve the problem, the common midpoint velocity analysis is employed to provide more low frequency component information for impedance inversion of GPR to finely reconstruct the dielectric parameter of subsurface in the framework of velocity-constrained inversion technique. Firstly, a layer model is specifically set up as an example to verify the feasibility of the developed velocity- constrained inversion to regulate the …
