This paper will present the design of a novel-type velocity-controllable electromagnetic coil launcher (EMCL). By studying the influence of initial capacitor voltage on the velocity of an EMCL, the launcher voltage can be set to precisely adjust the velocity of projectile launching. The simulation of voltage and velocity in relation to time is obtained by Maxwell software. The experimental data show that for the launch accuracy to be achievable, the actual precision is 2%. Because of the excellent performance of Velocity-controllable EMCL, it can replace the air gun and applied to split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB).

This paper presents a study on the analysis and evaluation for ELF( Extremely Low Frequency) electric and magnetic fields under the transmission line according to the power system states. The power system states are classified into two types, normal state resulting from normal operation and alert state from outages. The current in a system is changed continually owing to the load fluctuations even in a normal operation. To calculate the current of the concerned line in a normal state, the system load level is devided into light, base and heavy load level. In case of contingency, an efficient algorithm based on matrix inversion lemma is developed to figure out the current changes. In order to analyze the variations of ELF field caused by the current fluctuations the electrostatic field approach which is far simpler than the electromagnetic field one based on Maxwell equation is introduced in this paper. The suggested method is applied to the IEEE 14 bus system to demonstrate the usefulness.

This paper presents a study on the development of discharge model and computer program for assessing the risk of electrostatic discharge(ESD) of charged human body This ESD event is modelled as a two-body problem using spherical conductors, simulating the approach of a charged conductor (human body) to a second conductor (electronic equipment). The charge/discharge process for the model is formulated as a matrix of equations by Maxwell's method. Body potentials, energies and the charge transfer during a discharge are calculated. The developed program, based on the suggested scheme in this paper, is applied to a sample system. The results provide a better understanding of ESD event and demonstrate the usefulness of two-body model in practical applications.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the electromagnetic field characteristics of array antenna with the finite difference-time domain algorithm. Finite difference equations of Maxwell's equations are defined in cylindrical coordinate systems. To simulate the unbounded problem like a free space, the Mur's absorbing boundary condition is also used. After modeling the array antenna with the grid structure, the transient response of the field distribution is depicted in the time domain.

This paper presents a modified quasi-static approximate solution derived from the Maxwell's equations of integral form for the calculation of magnetic shielding effectiveness in a non-uniform enclosure such as metal-clad high-voltage test laboratory. It also describes the simplified relationship between the electrical parameters applicable to the engineering calculations of electromagnetic absorption loss which comprise the resultant effects due to the welding seams and short-circuited slots as well as the shielding material properties. A numerical example shows the fairly good agreements with experimental results measured on the absorption loss vs. incident wave frequency without any unreasonable rapid increase.

The RF inductive discharge or inductively coupled plasma (ICP) continues to attract growing attention as an effective plasma source in many industrial applications, the best known of which are plasma processing and lighting technicology. Although most practical ICP operate at 13.56 [MHz]and 2.65 [MHz], the trend to reduce the operating frequency is clearly recognizable from recent ICP developments. In an electrodeless fluorescent lamp, the use of a lower operating frequency simplifies and reduces cost of rf matching systems and rf generators and can eliminate capacitive coupling between the inductor coil and plasma, which could be a strong factor in wall erosion and plasma contamination. In this study, the configuration of ferrite and fixture which operates at the frequency of 2.65[MHz]was discussed as functions of the ferrite thickness and distance by using the electromagnetic simulation software (Maxwell 2D).

In this paper, analysis of bobbin probe signal in steam generator tube with bulge defect on CE system 80 nuclear power plant is represented. The CE system 80 steam generator is adopted in ULJIN-4 nuclear power plant. From Maxwell's equation, the electromagnetic governing equation for eddy current problem is derived and by performing the finite element formulation the 3-dimensional finite element code with brick element is developed. For the ease of the comparison the numerical results with experimental ones, the calculated signals are adjusted by using the ASME standard 100[%] through hole signal. For analysis of the effect of variation of the bulge depth on the impedance signal 0.2[mm] and 0.4[mm] depth of bulge defect signals are calculated and analyzed. As the depth of the bulge defect is increased, the magnitude of the signal is increased, too. But the rate of the increment of the signal is less than that of the depth of defect. From the result of this paper, we can obtained the information of the effect of bulge defect on the impedance signal.

Maxwell displacement current(MDC) measuring technique has been employed to study the dielectric property of Langmuir-films. A method for determining the dielectric relaxation time ${\tau}$ of floating monolayers on the water surface is presented. MDC flowing across monolayers is analyzed using a rod-like molecular model. It is revealed that the dielectric relaxation time ${\tau}$ of monolayers in the isotropic polar orientational phase is determined using a liner relationship between the monolayer compression speed ${\alpha}$ and the molecular area Am. Compression speed ${\alpha}$ was about 30, 40, 50mm/min.

In the machine tool industry, direct drive linear motor technology is of increasing interest as a means to achieve high acceleration, and to increase reliability. This paper deals with the characteristics of tubular type linear oscillating actuator with Halbach magnet array. The magnetic field solutions are derived analytically in terms of vector potential, two dimensional cylindrical coordinate system and Maxwell's equations. Motor thrust, flux linkage, back emf are then derived. The results are shown in good conformity with those obtained from the commonly used finite element method. Test results such as thrust measurements are also given to confirm the analysis.
