    Abstract
    The injection process on cell is a very accurate and sensitive operation. This method is used for several new invented approaches such as tracytoplasmic Cell Injection or drug delivery. Controlling the injection force in micro scale is one of the problems of mentioned operations. Current huge and expensive laboratorial devices are helping the operators to do injection operation with :nore success. In this study a simple and novel microelectromechanical (MEMS) mechanism for doing injection process automatically on the biological cells is proposed. In order to controlling this device properly, we should model and simulate the operation condition from initial position to final condition. This...

    Abstract
    Presence of defects, conducting particles, nonconducting particles, and nitrogen gas bubbles in the insulation system of high-temperature superconducting (HTS) transformers, mainly inside the liquid nitrogen as its major insulation, can create local field enhancement and consequently partial discharges which eventually lead to the catastrophic failure of the transformer. In this paper, two-dimensional (2D) axisymmetric finite element method (FEM) modeling via COMSOL Multiphysics software has been utilized for the investigation of the impact of size and shape of conducting particles and nitrogen gas bubbles on partial discharge (PD) activities in liquid nitrogen. Conducting particles of...
