Rhodes Engineering, located in Pleasanton, CA, near San Francisco is owned and operated by Dr. Mark A. Rhodes. Established in 1992, Rhodes Engineering provides engineering consulting services. While we specialize in electrical matters, many cases involve a multidisciplinary approach. It is not uncommon for our analysis to include aspects of physics, mechanical engineering, material science, and human factors. Most of our clients are attorneys with open litigations related to incidents that resulted in property damage, injury, or death. We also work with insurance adjusters interested in evaluating claims with technical engineering aspects that are pre-litigation. A third dimension of our clientele involves patents disputes and related aspects of Intellectual Property.
Cases involving injuries and property damage from electrical shocks and arcs are one of our core areas of expertise. It is no mystery that people can be injured or killed by electric shock. However, in actual shock incidents, the exact cause and nature of the shock is often complex and not obvious. Sometimes, there is no shock. Rather, the person involved is injured by radiant heat from an arc. Whatever, the situation, Rhodes Engineering will sort out the exact cause and nature of the injury or damage in your case.
While wildland and forest fires have many causes, two common causes are electrical in nature: lightning and power utility equipment. Rhodes Engineering has worked on numerous forest fire cases involving downed power lines, exploding transformers, and other electrical causes. CAL Fire and the US Department of Justice are two of our major clients in this area.
Purpose: The use of electrical stimulation to assess voluntary activation of muscle/s is a popular method employed in numerous exercise science and health research settings. This Delphi study aimed to collate expert opinion and provide recommendations for best practice when using electrical stimulation during maximal voluntary contractions.
Results: A total of 16 out of 62 (25.8%) items reached consensus. Experts agreed that electrical stimulation provides a valid assessment of voluntary activation in specific circumstances, such as during maximal contraction, and this stimulation can be applied at either the muscle or the nerve. Experts recommended using doublet stimuli, self-adhesive electrodes, a familiarisation session, real-time visual or verbal feedback during the contraction, a minimum current increase of + 20% to ensure supramaximal stimulation, and manually triggering stimuli.
Conclusion: The results of this Delphi consensus study can help researchers make informed decisions when considering technical parameters when designing studies involving electrical stimulation for the assessment of voluntary activation.
If required and with your agreement, we will arrange to visit the scene to inspect the system. Wherever possible, we will retain faulty parts for examination in our laboratory, where we use a range of equipment, tools, and tests to determine the cause of the electrical failure.
The appointed electrical contractor found that a Moulded Case Circuit Breaker (MCCB) in the main incoming switchroom had partially melted. To restore power to the offices the damaged MCCB was temporarily bypassed, however, some electrical equipment was subsequently reported as no longer working.
Hawkins was instructed by the insurers of the building management company to investigate whether the electrical failure could be attributed to a manufacturing defect with, or the installation of, the MCCB.
An examination of the damaged MCCB in a Hawkins laboratory by one of our electrical experts determined that the damage was most likely caused by resistive heating at an under-tightened bolt at the outgoing neutral connection. Losing the neutral connection would have resulted in a damaging overvoltage on the phase to neutral (single phase) voltage supplies downstream of the loose connection, in the event that the three phase currents became imbalanced. The investigation concluded that poor installation of the MCCB was the cause of the incident.
Engineering failures of hardware can occur in almost any area, from domestic items to large commercial items, hardware used in industrial applications or factories. Failures could be structural, electrical or mechanical and may be isolated incidents or a repeat failure such as one which impacts across an entire transport sector.

In 2021, a committee of transportation industry experts, venture capitalists and entrepreneurs selected Cui as one of six Michigan Translational Research and Commercialization Program winners, awarding a team led by him a grant to turn one of his research projects into a real-world product. His hierarchical power-processing architecture enables retired batteries from electric vehicles to be repurposed for grid energy storage at a significantly lower cost.
