In this paper, an elliptic disk-loaded antenna having frequency shift characteristics with the same height of the simple monopole is studied. The proposed antenna is composed of an ellitptic disk with arbitrary ellipticity ratio. The eigenmode representations in each region of given structure are useful for the analysis of the canonical monopoly, circular disk-loaded monopole and circular dielectric-loaded top-hat monopole antennas using the artificical ground plane. The comparison between the elliptic and circular disk-leaded antenna is carried out. The effect of the shape of the loaded disk and the ellipticity ratio of the loaded disk on the input impedances, the return loss and frequency shift is also studied. We have computed the given structures using the CST MW Studio version 3.0. The typical blade antenna can be obtained by modifying and extending the proposed structure with the λ/4 balun removing the stray capacitances existing between the loaded disk and the ground plane.

Noise generated by the blunt trailing edge of lifting surfaces is investigated in this study using fluid structure interaction theory. First, through the eddy modeling, noise generation doe to the flow instability on the rigid trailing edge is surveyed. Then the behavior of elastic cantileverd beam is investigated. Parametric study based on various material properties is employed to analyze the motion of the beam. Moreover, each eigenmode approach of cantilevered beam is used to find when flow induced vibration is resonant. To analyze elastic behavior of cantilever beam efficiently, moving grid generation technique based on non-conservative form of Navier-Stokes equation is used. Equation of the motion associated with the cantilever beam is discretized by the Galerkin procedure with forced vibration. As a consequence, behavior of the elastic cantilevered beam is stable when the first mode natural frequency of the material is relatively higher than that of flow induced pressure fluctuation.

The propagation characteristics of dielectric waveguides has been analyzed by finite element method. We have proposed the finite element formutation of the variational expression in the three-component magnetic field based on Galerkin's method which seek for the propagation constant by a given value of frequency. In this approach, the divergence relation for H is satisfied and spurious modes does not appear and finite element solustions agree with the exact solutions. In order to varify the validity of the present method the numerical results for a rectangular waveguide partilly filled with dielectric are compared with other results.

A stability analysis in the geomagentotail is presented within MHD limit with a modified form ideal Ohm's law. Using the high ky approximation (ballooning limit), we derive the basic eigenmode equations which can be reduced to the ideal MHD limit. The incompressible limit is numerically solved for a number of model equilibria of tail by Kan [1973], and we have found no unstable Kan equilibrium. Also, an analytic theory is carried out for the case where Bkc is assumed to be constant along the field line, following the idea by Lee and Min [1996]. In that case, it is suggested that the tail stability to the incompressible antisymmetric mode is determined by the ideal MHD.

A new planar metamaterial (MTM) with simultaneous negative values of permittivity (${\varepsilon}$) and permeability (${\mu}$) is proposed. Our MTM is composed of two identical copper patterns etched on both sides of dielectric laminate, which is very thin and easy to fabricate. Unlike conventional MTMs, the proposed structure shows a negative refractive index (NRI) behavior with respect to a normally incident wave. To explain the underlying principle of the NRI characteristics, an equivalent resonant circuit model based on surface current density distribution is investigated. An eigenmode analysis and a three-dimensional wave simulation for the stacked MTM prism are also performed to verify the existence of negative refraction. The experimental results from the transmission and reflection measurement ensure the validity of our design approach and show good agreement with the theoretically predicted effective medium parameters.

The modified power method has been studied by many researchers to calculate the higher eigenmodes and accelerate the convergence of the fundamental mode. Its application to multidimensional problems may be unstable due to degenerated or near-degenerated eigenmodes. Complex eigenmode solutions are occasionally encountered in such cases, and the shapes of the corresponding eigenvectors may change during the simulation. These issues must be addressed for the successful implementation of the modified power method. Complex components are examined and an approximation method to eliminate the usage of the complex numbers is provided. A technique to fix the eigenvector shapes is also provided. The performance of the methods for dealing with those aforementioned problems is demonstrated with two dimensional one group and three dimensional one group homogeneous diffusion problems.

Hot-firing tests were performed to experimentally confirm the effect of the eigenmode in the fuel-air mixing section on combustion instability by changing mixing section length, inlet mean velocity, equivalence ratio, and swirler geometry. A premixed gas composed of air and ethylene was supplied to the combustion chamber through an mixing section and an axial swirler. As the mixing section length increased, the inlet velocity perturbation decreased, but the combustion instability increased more. It was found that the resonance frequency of the first longitudinal mode in the mixing section shifted to the third longitudinal mode as the length of the mixing section increased. The results implied that the transition of the resonace frquency by changing the length of the mixing section might cause combustion instability.

This paper aims to advance our understanding of extensible beams with multiple cracks by presenting a crack energy and motion equation, and mathematically justifying the energy functions of axial and bending deformations caused by cracks. Utilizing an extended form of Hamilton's principle, we derive a normalized governing equation for the motion of the extensible beam, taking into account crack energy. To achieve a closed-form solution of the beam equation, we employ a simple approach that incorporates the crack's patching condition into the eigenvalue problem associated with the linear part of the governing equation. This methodology not only yields a valuable eigenmode function but also significantly enhances our understanding of the dynamics of cracked extensible beams. Furthermore, we derive a governing equation that is an ordinary differential equation concerning time, based on orthogonal eigenmodes. This research lays the foundation for further studies, including experimental validations, applications, and the study of damage estimation and detection in the presence of cracks.

A cantilevered piezoelectric energy harvester(PEH) and an auxiliary mass-spring unit can be integrated into a novel two-degrees-of-freedom PEH where its lowest eigenmode is not an in-phase modes but an out-of-phase mode. This typical behavior was shown to enhance output power considerably compared with its stand-alone counterpart. The objective of this study is to newly develop a continuum-based mathematical model suitable for efficient analysis of the mode-sequence reversed PEH. Once such a mathematical model is available, various physical behaviors can be analytically investigated for better designs. After a new mathematical model is developed, its validity is checked by using ANSYS results, in terms of resonant frequency, open-circuit voltage, and output power with a specified external resistance.

In multiple antenna systems, spatial facing correlation causes a significant degradation in performance. In this work, a method for reducing the sensitivity to spatial fading correlation through the bi-directional use of spatial resources is investigated. Firstly, the concept of bi-directional use of spatial resources is introduced. Then, the ability of this technique to reduce the sensitivity to spatial fading correlation is then shown through an analysis of the number of usable eigenmodes (UEMs). This system is found to efficiently reduce the sensitivity to spatial fading correlation.
