Other articles formed using compositions disclosed herein in other embodiments can demonstrate dissipative and/or quantum tunneling effects and so are useful as self-sensing pressure sensitive articles, such as self-sensing seals.

In a high-frequency transformer element includes a primary coil including first coil conductors and a secondary coil including second coil conductors are disposed in a multilayer body that includes a plurality of insulating layers. A magnetic-field cancellation conductor pattern is disposed in the multilayer body, is adjacent to some conductors of the first coil conductors in a lamination direction of the insulating layers, is arranged along a surface of the insulating layers, and allows a high-frequency current to flow in a direction opposite a high-frequency current flowing in the first coil conductors.

Toroidal transformers are currently used only in low-voltage applications. There is no published experience for toroidal transformer design at distribution-level voltages. Toroidal transformers are provided with electrostatic shielding to make possible high voltage applications and withstand the impulse test.

A power reception-side coil is mounted on the bottom surface of a vehicle body and contactlessly receives power transmitted from a power feeding-side coil disposed on the ground. The power reception-side coil is of a solenoid type such that an electric wire is wound with the vehicle longitudinal direction as a coil axis. A shield member that is a plate-shaped magnetic shield is disposed between the bottom surface of the vehicle body and the power reception-side coil. The shield member has a forward-inclined surface serving as a first wall part protruding downward of the vehicle, the forward-inclined surface being raised and provided at the vehicle front side in a direction of the coil axis with respect to the power reception-side coil.
