  2. Electromagnetically induced acoustic noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetically...

    These phenomena can potentially generate vibrations of the ferromagnetic, conductive parts, coils and permanent magnets of electrical, magnetic and electromechanical device, resulting in an audible sound if the frequency of vibrations lies between 20 Hz and 20 kHz, and if the sound level is high enough to be heard (e.g. large surface of ...

  3. Sound amplification by stimulated emission of radiation

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_amplification_by...

    SASER's central idea is based on sound waves. The set-up needed for the implementation of sound amplification by stimulated emission of radiation is similar to an oscillator. An oscillator can produce oscillations without any external feed-mechanism. An example is a common sound amplification system with a microphone, amplifier and speaker.

  4. Blast wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blast_wave

    A blast wave travels faster than the speed of sound, and the passage of the shock wave usually lasts only a few milliseconds. Like other types of explosions, a blast wave can also cause damage to things and people by the blast wind, debris, and fires. The original explosion will send out fragments that travel very fast.

    Guiding their exploration was the idea that if mechanical waves in general are a known means of impacting objects, then sound waves in particular may have the power to move around the elements of ...

  6. Partial discharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_discharge

    When PD, arcing or sparking occurs, electromagnetic waves propagate away from the fault site in all directions which contact the transformer tank and travel to earth (ground cable) where the HFCT is located to capture any EMI or EMP within the transformer, breaker, PT, CT, HV Cable, MCSG, LTC, LA, generator, large hv motors, etc. Detection of ...

  7. At least three killed in blast at Italian hydroelectric plant

    At least three people have been killed and four are missing after a fire and explosion underground at a hydroelectric power plant in northern Italy on Tuesday, the local mayor said. Italian ...

  8. Overpressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overpressure

    Overpressure (or blast overpressure) is the pressure caused by a shock wave over and above normal atmospheric pressure. The shock wave may be caused by sonic boom or by explosion, and the resulting overpressure receives particular attention when measuring the effects of nuclear weapons or thermobaric bombs.

    It takes 60- to 80-mph winds for the company to shut down transmission lines. CEO Steve Powell said it didn't see winds that powerful.
