Advanced radiation applications have been widely used and extended to many fields. As a result of this fact, choosing an appropriate shielding material based on the radiation application has become vital. In this regard, the integration of elements into polymer composites has been investigated and contributed to the quantity and quality of radiation shielding materials. This study reports photon attenuation parameters and electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of a novel polymer composite prepared with a matrix reinforced with three different proportions (5, 10, and 15 wt%) of niobium content. Addition of Nb dopant improves both photon attenuation and electromagnetic shielding effectiveness for the investigated composites. Therefore, Nb(15%) polymer composite with highest concentration has been found to be the best absorber for ionizing and non-ionizing radiations. Consequently, the performed analyzes provide evidences that the prepared Nb-reinforced polymer composite could be effectively used as photon radiation attenuator and electromagnetic shielding material.

We report a theoretical research for the condition of electromagnetic shield breaching when a narrow aperture is punctured in thin metal film. To calculate electromagnetic field transmission through a narrow slit, a Rayleigh wave expansion has been applied for free standing, thin metal film. We found that the DC electric field allows perfect transmission when the length of the slit is infinite, regardless of the other geometrical factors such as slitwidth and thickness. Slitwidth dependent transmission spectra as a function of frequency shows a cutoff frequency that decreases almost linearly to the slitwidth, giving that almost successful shielding is only possible when the slitwidth is smaller than 1 micron.

As computer power increased, the system with complex phenomenon has been analyzed with the help of CAE software which can handle the coupled physics, such as electromagnetic, structure, thermal and fluid physics. To predict the electromagnetic repulsion force and the temperature distribution of an air circuit breaker with electric contact mechanism, ANSYS/EMAG, FLOTRAN can be used. Although some assumptions and simplifications were introduced to simulate the model, results from the computational model were in good agreement with actual measurements obtained from experiments.

Geant4 전산모사 toolkit은 버전에 따라 개선되거나 새로워진 물리적 모델을 제공한다. 최근 재 코드화 된 Geant4.9.3은 저 에너지 전자기 물리 모델에 대해 Livermore 데이터 삽입과 새로운 물리적 모델을 적용시키고, 코드를 수정하여 물리적 요소를 개선시켰다. 본 연구에서는 향후, 전자 또는 입자를 이용한 신뢰성 있는 전산모사를 위하여 Geant4.9.2와 9.3에 포함된 전자기 물리모델을 이용하여 물질 내부를 통과하는 입자의 저지능(Stopping power)과 CSDA(Continuously Slowing Down Approximation) range 데이터를 획득하였으며, 이 결과를 미국국립기술표준원(National Institute of Standards and Technology, NIST)에서 제공하는 각각의 데이터와 비교하여, Geant4.9.2에 대한 Geant4.9.3의 저 에너지 전자기 물리 모델의 개선 여부를 알아보고자 하였다.

The turbulence in the nonlinear regime of the electromagnetic ion-cyclotron (EMIC) instability are investigated via a particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation. EMIC instability arises from anisotropic ion temperature and excites the Alfven ion-cyclotron (AIC) waves. The excited AIC waves undergo inverse-cascade via the nonlinear wave interaction of two AIC and one ion density modes. Induced ion density modes are the normal and second harmonic ion-acoustic (IA) waves. They have the same group velocity, but the second harmonic IA mode only generates the longitudinal electric field.

This paper introduces a novel parallel shift operator finite-difference time-domain (SO-FDTD) method for plasma in the dispersive media. We calculate the interaction between the electromagnetic wave of various frequencies and non-magnetized plasma by using the parallel SO-FDTD method. Then, we compare the results，which are calculated with serial and parallel SO-FDTD executions to obtain the speedup ratio and validate the parallel execution. We conclude that the parallel SO method has almost the same precision as the serial SO method, while the parallel approach expands the scope of memory and reduces the CPU time.

In this paper, a method for multi-physics analysis of the temperature-dependent properties of an oil-immersed transformer is discussed. To couple thermal fields with electromagnetic and fluid fields, an algorithm employing a user defined function (UDF) is proposed. Using electromagnetic analysis, electric power loss dependent on temperature rise is calculated; these are used as input data for multi-physics analysis in order to predict the temperature rise. A heat transfer coefficient is applied only at the outermost boundary between transformer and the atmosphere in order to reduce the analysis region. To verify the validity of the proposed method, the predicted temperature rises in high-voltage (HV) and low-voltage (LV) windings and radiators were compared with the experimental values.

The purpose of this paper is to attract electrical and electronic engineering community's attention to electromagnetic nondestructive testing (NDT). Various electromagnetic NDT methods of detecting defects in materials are presented to help understand the underlying physics associated with these techniques. This understanding would provide a way to interpret the test signal to describe about the defect. In the meantime, the author hopes, one may realize how perfectly fit such a subject as electromagnetic NDT is to current curriculums of electrical and electronic engineering.

단층형 전자파 흡수체의 흡수 성능은 입사파의 반사 손실(return loss)이 최대가 되는 두께 정합 조건 및 주파수 정합 조건에서 최적화 된다. 본 연구에서는 재료의 복소 투자율과 복소 유전율에 의존하는 전송선 이론을 적용하여 광대역 흡수체의 정합 조건을 계산하였다. 그 결과 주파수에 따른 복소 투자율 감소 특성이 두께 정합 조건을 광대역으로 확대하는 효과를 지니기 때문에 광대역 전자파 흡수체에 자성 재료가 이용될 수 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 향후 확대될 EMC(Electromagnetic compatibility) 규격을 대비한 차세대 광대역 전자파 흡수체를 만들기 위하여 현재 사용되고 있는 NiZn 페라이트 소결체 보다 포화 자화량이 크고 유전율 값이 작은 자성 재료들을 사용하여야 한다는 것을 보였다.
