In this paper, artificial potential field(APF) is applied to formation control for the leader-following swarm robot. Furthermore, APF is constructed by applying the electrical field model. Moreover, to model the obstacle effectively, each obstacle has different form due to the electrical field equation. The proposed method is formed as two sub-objective: path planning for the leader-robot and following-robots following the leader-robot. Finally, simulation example is given to prove the validity of proposed method.

For heat-assisted magnetic recording, magnetization reversal probabilities of nano-Pt/MnSb multilayer film with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy under thermal pulse activation were investigated numerically by solving the Landau-Lifshift Gilbert Equation. Magnetic parameters of nano-Pt/MnSb multilayer were used with anisotropy energy of $3{\times}10^5$ erg/cc and saturation magnetization of 2100 G, which offer more than 10 y data stability at room temperature. Scheme of driven magnetic field and thermal pulse on writing mechanism was designed closely to real experiment. This study found that the chosen material is potential to be used as a high density magnetic storage that requires low writing field less than two-hundreds Oersted through definite heating and cooling interval. The possibility of writing data with a zero driven magnetic field also became an important result. Further study is recommended on the thickness of media and thermal pulse design as the essential parameters of the reversal magnetization.

Finite element analysis showed that strong magnetic fields were distributed around the arc furnace where the strongest magnetic fields were generated around the three phase cables. The second and third strongest fields near the arc furnace were found to be generated around the electrodes and the mast-arms, respectively. The generated field intensities were greatly influenced by the mast arm structure of the arc furnace as well as the phase differences and operation currents of the supplied power, Magnetic field decay patterns around the arc furnace could be smoothly fitted by this equation of exponential formula, H=H$0_$+Ae$^{\frac{r}{t}}$. These results revealed that magnetic field intensities around the arc furnace could be estimated at any 3-dimensional position using finite element method (FEM).

Compressible, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence in two dimension is studied through high-resolution, numerical simulations with the isothermal equation of state. First, hydrodynamic turbulence with Mach number $(M)_{rms}\;\~$1 is generated by enforcing a random force. Next, initial, uniform magnetic field of various strengths with Alfvenic Mach number Ma $\gg$ 1 is added. Then, the simulations are followed until MHD turbulence is fully developed. Such turbulence is expected to exist in a variety of astrophysical environments including clusters of galaxies. Although no dissipation is included explicitly in our simulations, truncation errors produce dissipation which induces numerical resistivity. It mimics a hyper-resistivity in our second-order accurate code. After saturation, the resulting flows are categorized as SF (strong field), WF (weak field), and VWF (very weak field) classes respectively, depending on the average magnetic field strength described with Alfvenic Mach number, $(Ma)_{rms}{\ge}1$, $(Ma)_{rms}{\~}1$, and $(Ma)_{rms}{\gg}1$. The characteristics of each class are discussed.

Magnetization loss which is generated in HTS wire varies with the direction of the external magnetic field. This paper calculates the magnetization loss in an HTS transformer winding, where effects of the direction of magnetic field are considered. Kim model is used to consider the variation of the critical current with magnetic field and Brandt equation is used to calculate the loss by perpendicular magnetic field in transformer winding. Magnetization loss in an HTS transformer can be calculated more precisely with this paper.

A model to describe the effect of stator slotting in the airgap region of a linear brushless permanent magnet motor (LBLPMM) is proposed for analytical prediction of magnetic field distribution. It is a two-dimensional model based on superposition of the effect of stator slotting and main field due to permanent magnet (PM) without stator slotting. The effect of stator slotting is expressed in form of a generalized equation, which is obtained by numerical analysis and is a function of motor geometric parameters, so the proposed model effectively accounts for the effect of stator slotting in the airgap field distribution according to change of motor geometry or relative motion of stator and armature. Results of prediction from the proposed model are compared with corresponding finite element analysis.

Computational fluid dynamics analysis was carried out for thermo-chemical flow field in Arcjet thruster with mono-propellant Hydrazine ($N_2$H$_4$) as a working fluid. The theoretical formulation is based on the Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations for compressible flows with thermal radiation. The electric potential field governed by Maxwell equation is loosely coupled with the fluid dynamics equations through the Ohm heating and Lorentz force. Chemical reactions were assumed being infinitely fast due to the high temperature field inside the arcjet thruster. An equilibrium chemistry module for nitrogen-hydrogen mixture and a thermal radiation module for optically thin media were incorporated with the fluid dynamics code. Thermo-physical process inside the arcjet thruster was understood from the flow field results and the performance prediction shows that the thrust force is increased by amount of 3 times with 0.6KW arc heating.

This paper deals with analysis of a 3-phase high speed machine with diametrically magnetized rotor. The field equations due to magnet and stator windings are established in terms of vector potential and 2-d polar coordinate systems and then, characteristic equation of torque and back emf are derived by using field equations. Finally, this paper predicts open-circuit field, armature reaction field distributions, field distributions on load, torque and back emf distributions from those of equations. Results are compared with predictions from corresponding finite element analyses.

In this paper, we develope an algorithm to calculate field inhomogeneity in MR imaging using a dual fast spin echo pulse sequence. Because phase modulation time can be easily modified with this pulse sequence, high resolution image can be obtained and acquisition time can be reduced compared to gradient echo technique. In the case of phase wrapping in field map, phase corrected using image processing technique. We assume the field pattern to be second order polynomial and apply Pseudo-Inverse equation to calculate second order polynomial coefficients. These coefficients can be used for the shimming of the magnetic field.

DLC(Diamond-Like Carbon) films were prepared by Inductively Coupled Plasma(ICP) CVD system. It was confirmed that the field emission characteristics are closely related to the richness of C-H bonding incorporated in the DLC. According to Fowler-Nordheim equation, it is thought that the ability of DLC to emit electron at relatively low voltage is due to the field enhancement caused by the nodules of ${\sim}100nm$ size on the surface of DLC. The electric field to start field emission was about $1.4{\times}10^9V/m$ in case of DLC film deposited at input power of 400W and substrate bias of -100V.
