In this paper, a study on automation method for the circuit/EM (Electro-Magnetic) simulation is carried out to analyze effectively the SI/PI (Signal Integrity/Power Integrity) issues which occur on circuits and/or PCBs (Printed Circuit Boards). For the automation of the circuit/EM simulation, algorithms performing each process of the SI/PI analysis automatically (such as ports setup, circuit definition and SI/PI evaluation) are developed; thereby automation system for the SI/PI analysis is constructed with the algorithms. The automation of the circuit/EM simulation is accomplished in the environment of the C/S (Client/Server) architecture in order to reduce resources such as high cost computers demanded for the SI/PI analysis. The automation method for the SI/PI analyses proposed in this paper reduces effort, time, and cost spent on the environment setup for simulation and the SI/PI analysis process. In addition, the proposed method includes automation of the documenting process, which organizes, records and displays the SI/PI analysis results automatically for users.

The theory for a new electromagnetically biased combined radial and axial magnetic bearing is developed. This combined magnetic bearing uses two axial coils to provide the bias flux to the radial and axial air gaps of the combined bearing. One dimensional magnetic circuit model for this combined magnetic bearing is developed and analyzed such that flux densities and magnetic forces can be obtained. Three dimensional finite element model for the bearing is also developed and analyzed. Numerical analysis shows that the calculated magnetic forces from 1D model are well matched with those from the finite element model.

As modem industrialized society progresses, the demand for electric power is increasing rapidly. The electric power system is getting amazingly bigger and complicated, which can easily induce serious troubles from the potential of large fault problems and/or system failure. The monitoring and diagnosis of the electric machine for the fault detection and protection has been important part in the electric power system. Most faults in the generator appear in the winding. This paper presents the air-gap magnetic flux characteristic of a small-scale 2-pole synchronous generator according to the faults in the field winding to protect the generator from the fault. The magnetic flux patterns in air-gap of a generator under various fault conditions as well as a normal state are simulated by using finite element method. These results are successfully applied to the detection and diagnosis of the short-circuit condition in rotor windings of a high capacitor generator.

The rotor overhang is used to enhance air-gap flux and improve power density. Due to asymmetry in the axial direction caused by the overhang, the time consuming 3D analysis is necessary to design the motor with overhang. To solve this problem, this paper proposes the equivalent magnetic circuit model (EMCM) that can consider overhang effects without the 3D analysis by using effective air-gap length. The analysis time can be reduced significantly via the proposed EMCM. The reduction of the analysis time is essential for the preliminary design of the motor. In order to verify the proposed model, the 3-D finite-element method (FEM) analysis is adopted. 3-D FEM results confirm the validity of the proposed EMCM.

According as optical storage becomes high-density, numerical aperture increases. Therefore, the shift characteristic of moving parts in an actuator for optical pickup becomes a critical design factor because of decrease in the tilt margin. The tilt angle is maximized when the position of moving parts is in a diagonal direction within a moving range. This is determined by design of structure and magnetic circuit of an actuator. Previous analysis method only predicts linear characteristics of moving parts. However, the result of shift characteristics of the moving parts considering structural and magnetic circuit's nonlinearity following the every position simultaneously shows us more realistic result. Therefore, we present analysis method considering nonlinearity of moving parts' position through FEM package using coupled-field analysis. Then, we will suggest hereafter a design guide by comparing the above results with experimental ones.
