Sentences with phrase «electrical potentials produced»

Not exact matches

Advances in high - temperature components and improved system modeling, combined with the potential for conversion costs an order of magnitude lower than those of turbines, suggest that TPV could offer a pathway for efficiently storing and producing electrical power from solar thermal sources, a new study suggests.

Fusion, the power that drives the sun and the stars, is the fusing of light elements that produces massive amounts of heat with the potential to generate electrical energy.

These two disparate advances were important to the work of two Nobel Prize winners, Alan Hodgkin and Andrew Huxley, who showed how the flow of sodium and potassium across the membranes of nerves can be coupled to produce the action potential, a brief electrical event that initiates the action potential, which propagates the nervous signal.

The H - reflex is produced by an electrical stimulus, which causes action potentials to travel up afferent nerves until they synapse on α - motor neurons.

This electrical potential is produced in consequence of electrical signals sent from the brain, along efferent nerves that control motor units (Baylor & Hollingworth, 2011; Smith et al. 2013).

Excitation - contraction coupling begins when an electrical potential is produced at the neuromuscular junction.
