Sequential Solidification of Metal Powder by a Scanning Microwave Applicator Open
This study examines the fundamental feasibility of sequential metal-powder solidification by localized microwave-heating (LMH) provided by a scanning, all-solid-state microwave applicator. This continuous process is considered for the addi…

Microwave-ignited DC-plasma ejection from basalt: Powder-generation and lightning-like effects Open
A phenomenon of dusty plasma ejected from basalt is presented, in the form of a stable, long-lived fire-pillar, solely sustained by a direct-current (DC) supply. The plasma is emitted to the air atmosphere from a molten hotspot, initially …

Review 2: Effect of rapid cooling on rock strength reduction after microwave irradiation Open
A variety of machines are currently being used for mechanical excavation in mining and civil industries. A series of research works have been conducted at McGill University in the past decade to study the effects of microwave (MW) irradiat…

Incremental solidification (toward 3D-printing) of metal powders by transistor-based microwave applicator Open
Incremental solidification (IS) of small batches of metal powders is a fundamental process in various additive-manufacturing (AM) and 3-D printing (3DP) operations. Here we show the feasibility of an IS process implemented by a compact, al…

Localized microwave-heating (LMH) of basalt – Lava, dusty-plasma, and ball-lightning ejection by a “miniature volcano” Open
This paper presents various phenomena obtained by localized microwave-heating (LMH) of basalt, including effects of inner core melting, lava eruption and flow (from the molten core outside), plasma ejection from basalt (in forms of fire-co…
