This paper describes current status of High Temperature Superconductor (HTS) rotating machinery development in Japan. Recent advances in production technology of HTS materials have continuously stimulated the development of high performance rotating machines. One of the most promising applications for such machines is the ship propulsion, and then some major projects have been underway. Also, energetic challenges for the HTS drive motor, e.g., automobile, have started. Furthermore, low speed and large capacity HTS generators are considered to be exciting candidates for wind turbines. The technology trends of the HTS rotating machines is introduced and discussed in this review paper.

By appliying an slternate pulsed magnetic field -generated by using a sequential ignition circuit and a magnet exciting circuit- with peak value of about 10 T to the rod type Nd based magnet Nd2Fe12.7Cr1.3B with length of 5 mm and diameter of 3.6 mm, the basic magnetic properties such as saturation magnetization, residual magnetization, coercivity, maximum energy products, magnetic anisotropy and anisotropic field are investigated with obtaining the major and minor J-H loops of the magnet. The increase in coercivity due to eddy currents in ac measurement of coercivity is calculated considering eddy current loss by analyzing a wave of generating magnetic field. The average coercivity calculated for the magnet is about 12.2 kOe, anisotropy magnetic field and anisotropic constant are measured as 60 kOe 2.43 Mj/$m^3$, respectively.

The measurement of stator core loss for an induction motor at each manufacturing process is carried out in this paper. Iron loss in the stator core of induction motor changes after each manufacturing process due to the mechanical stress, which can cause the deterioration of the magnetic performances. This paper proposes a new iron loss measuring system of the stator core in an induction motor, which can be applied to the case when the distribution of magnetic flux density is not uniform along the magnetic flux path. In the system, the iron loss is calculated based on the induced voltage of the B-search coil and exciting current.

This paper presents dynamic characteristics in Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) with rotor eccentricity and proposes the reduction method of rotor eccentricity effects by the different winding connections. These characteristics investigations are computed by 2D transient magnetic FEM analysis coupled with external circuits. The radial and unbalance magnetic force in the stator, which is the main exciting force of the vibration, is calculated using Maxwell stress method and compared with the performance characteristics according to the serial and parallel connections of windings. The influence of winding method counteracting unbalance forces on the rotor vibration behavior is estimated by the current waveforms of the paralleled paths under rotor eccentricity.

This paper presents the static thrust of a hybid-type LPM by coenergy method. First, the nonlinealities of the permanent magnet, the primary core and the secondary are interpolated by the cubic spline method. Then the equivalent magnetic circuit including airgap reluctance, which is a function of displacement, modelled by the permeance method is obtained. From the derivative of coenergy with displacement computed by Newton Raphson method, the static thrust is calculated at each displacement with certain exciting current.

Brain organoids are an exciting new technology with the potential to significantly change our understanding of the development and disorders of the human brain. With step-by-step differentiation protocols, three-dimensional neural tissues are self-organized from pluripotent stem cells, and recapitulate the major millstones of human brain development in vitro. Recent studies have shown that brain organoids can mimic the spatiotemporal dynamicity of neurogenesis, the formation of regional neural circuitry, and the integration of glial cells into a neural network. This suggests that brain organoids could serve as a representative model system to study the human brain. In this review, we will overview the development of brain organoid technology, its current progress and applications, and future prospects of this technology.

When modelling lots of induction motors to design and configure an engine room simulator, the 2 parameters equivalent circuit has many practical benefits as it reduces working hours considerably without requiring complicated technical data from makers except the ratings of motors. The basic properties such as torque and load current are shown well matched with real cases by this method, but almost the only drawback of 2 parameters circuit is that it reveals inherently higher power factor in the whole operation range due to disregarding the exciting current of the induction motor to maximize the simplification. This paper suggests a modelling module as a practical tool to compensate the power factor by inserting a virtual compensation current into the load current from 2 parameters equivalent circuit, and the simulated results show satisfactory outputs and the improved power factor indication by performance curves when compared to the cases of 2 parameters-equivalent circuit.

Induction motor torque is the reactive power is needed which corresponds to the exciting current to generate the magnetic flux as the product of current and flux. For use in the method of supplying the required reactive power to the induction motor power factor correction apparatus using a lot of ways to supply in place of the power supply side, when using a power factor compensation device can reduce the apparent power, the power factor can be improved. However, the distance to the emergency generator transformers or motors from the motor capacity is smaller but short and difficult to maneuver the theory and practice of the operating characteristics of the starting characteristics of the motor used a lot of large industrial plants were measured and analyzed. Therefore, this study investigated the motor starting Analysis and interpretation for the relationship with the large motor starting torque and speed during motor starting.
