Static electricity is an imbalance in the amount of positive and negative charges found with in the surface of an object. The sudden flow of static electricity or Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can ...

But to get the most out of the adhesive, engineers usually call for a rough surface, giving the adhesive plenty of sites to form mechanical bonds. Unfortunately, these rough surfaces create networks ...

Mueller Electric Company, Inc. has announced the offering of static and electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding cables, designed to protect workers and associated equipment from the potential harmful ...

From getting out of the car to hair standing on end — small zaps strike many of us at this time of year. So why does it happen? The prevalence of static electricity was all due to the weather, ...

Tim Patel co-authored this blog. As any first-year engineering student can tell you, electrostatic discharge (ESD) is an electrical transient that poses a serious threat to electronic circuits. The ...

Many technologies rely on electric discharge phenomena, including consumer electronics, medical devices, and high-voltage power systems. During product development, it is highly beneficial to simulate ...

In winter I’ve gotten big shocks from static electricity when getting out of my car, and once saw a video where a crewman touching a race car during a pit stop was thrown back several feet, I presume ...

Hello Paul, my van keeps shocking passengers when they touch the door after a long drive. Could friction from clothes and seats really build static like that, or is there an earthing issue ...

It's that time of year, at least where I'm currently at, where static electricity becomes an issue and I have to pay attention to it. Without a humidifier, the indoor humidity levels crater into the ...
