Dipole electromagnetic forces on thin wires under transient high voltage pulses
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 November 2009
Abstract
In this article we present an alternative explanation of the phenomenon of wire fragmentation under high transient currents based on classical electromagnetism. We also explain how this phenomenon can be utilized as a primitive example of low energy-high power disruptive phenomena that can affect even nuclear matter.
