Underwater electrical discharges provide a compelling method for generating intense shock waves and complex fluid dynamics in aquatic environments. These processes occur when high-voltage electrical ...

Underwater electrical explosions entail the rapid vaporisation of metal conductors immersed in water through high-voltage, pulsed electrical discharges, leading to a near-instantaneous release of ...

Electrical issues were the second leading cause of home fires between 2012 and 2016, according to the National Fire Protection Association -- and there's little evidence that the trend has changed.

A survey performed by Littelfuse, Inc., a global manufacturer of technologies in circuit protection, power control and sensing, discovered that most personnel who work directly with electricity have ...

Two good sources for those seeking to understand the dangers of electrical shock are OSHA 1 and NIOSH. Electricity is one of the most common causes of fires and thermal burns in homes and workplaces.

Shock wave studies allow researchers to achieve the warm dense matter that's found only in the extreme conditions around stars and created in the laboratory for inertial confinement fusion research, ...

The Electrical Trades Union surveyed more than 400 apprentices, to find one in eight have been shocked while on the job. The survey revealed many apprentices were not starting classroom training until ...

Yes. That's the point. Proponents of electrical shock therapy, however, say it merely causes vibrations and pain similar to that of a bee sting. They downplay reported burns and permanent damage.

Dear Dr. Roach: I was diagnosed with atrial fibrillation in January 2012. I am aware of when it comes by how I feel — a little out of sorts, but no shortness of breath, chest pain or light-headedness.
