Due to the considerable development of the technology of second generation high-temperature superconductors and a significant improvement in their mechanical and transport properties in the last few years it is possible to use HTS tapes in the magnetic levitation systems. The advantages of tapes on a metal substrate as compared with bulk YBCO material primarily in the strength, and the possibility of optimizing the convenience of manufacturing elements of levitation systems. In the present report presents the results of the magnetic levitation force measurements between the stack of HTS tapes containing $n=2{\div}200$ of tapes $12mm{\times}12mm$ and NdFeB permanent magnet in the FC and ZFC regimes. It was found a non- linear dependence of the levitation force from the height of the array of stack in both modes: linear growth at small thickness gives way to flattening and constant at large number of tapes in the stack. Established that the levitation force of stacks comparable to that of bulk samples. The numerical calculations using finite element method showed that without the screening of the applied field the levitation force of the bulk superconductor and the layered superconductor stack with a critical current of tapes increased by the filling factor is exactly the same, and taking into account the screening force slightly different.

An orthogonal magnetic field is often used for a military vessel in the deperm process such as Flash D deperm protocol and Anhysteretic deperm protocol. The effect of the orthogonal magnetic field on a deperm performance was investigated for a sample with strain-induced magnetization and field-induced magnetization given to different direction. A 70mm wide, 110mm long and 0.25mm thick rectangular steel plate was bent to have U-shape and to generate a strong strain on the bottom region of U-shaped steel plate. Field-induced magnetization was attached by NdFeB permanent magnet. Demagnetization was performed by applying magnetic field with a step decrement from the first field(the first shot) under the action of DC bias field.

The effects of the crystallographic orientation and sample thickness on the magnetic levitation forces (F) and trapped magnetic field (B) of single grain YBCO bulk superconductors were examined. Single grain YBCO samples with a (001), (110) or (100) surface were used as the test samples. The samples used for the force-distance (F-d) measurement were cooled at 77 K without a magnetic field (zero field cooling, ZFC), whereas the samples used for the B measurement were cooled under the external magnetic field of a Nd-B-Fe permanent magnet (field cooling, FC). It was found that F and B of the (001) surface were higher than those of the (110) or (100) surface, which is attributed to the higher critical current density ($J_c$) of the (001) surface. For the (001) samples with t=5-18 mm, the maximum magnetic levitation forces ($F_{max}s$) of the ZFC samples were larger than 40 N. About 80% of the applied magnetic field was trapped in the FC samples. However, the F and B decreased rapidly as t decreased below 5 mm. There exists a critical sample thickness (t=5 mm for the experimental condition of this study) for maintaining the large levitation/trapping properties, which is dependent on the material properties and magnitude of the external magnetic fields.

As resent trends in structural construction have been to build taller and larger structures than any time in the past, they have had high flexibility and low damping that can cause large vibration response under severe environmental loading such as earthquakes, winds, and mechanical excitations. The damper with mass and sqring is one aproach to safeguarding the structure against excessive vibrations. In this paper, a large capacity hybrid-type linear motor damper(LMD) was designed and fabricated for the application to the vibration control of a large building structure model. It has been designed to be able to move the damper mass, 1,500 kg up to ${\pm}250mm$ strokes at the first mode natural frequency of the building structure model, ${\pm}0.51Hz$. Linear motor is consisted of the fixed coil and the movable NdFeB permanent magnets field part. The PM field part composed magnet modules and iron yoke, is the damper mass itself, 1500kg. LMD therefore has a simplified structure and requires a few elements in the driving system, being compared with a rotary motor damper and a hydraulic damper. However, the manufacture of large PM linear actuator is difficult because of the limit of PM size and the attraction and repulsion at the assembly of PM. Therefore, large damper system is manufactured and tested for dynamic characteristics and frequency response.

For the purpose of annihilating tumor in body, hematoporphyrin as a photosensitizer was coated onto magnetic particles of $Fe_3O_4$ prepared by coprecipitation which could be concentrated around the tumor by magnetic field. The photosensitizer was applied differently before, during and after adsorbing the 1st surfactant on the particles. Its added amount was $5{\times}10^{-4}/mol$, and the coating reaction proceeded at temperatures of 60, 70 and 8$0^{\circ}C$. The amounts of photosensitizer coated on the magnetic particles were obtained by calculating an optical density with the maximum UV spectrum. As a result of the UV analysis, the coating amount of photosensitizer increased with higher reaction temperatures. When applied at 8$0^{\circ}C$ after adsorbing the 1st surfactant, the photosensitizer was coated with a maximum value of $3.8{\times}10^{-3}/mo1/$\ell$$. The TGA analysis revealed that the ferrofluids included the particles of 30.115 g/$\ell$. It was suggested that the magnetite particles was coated with photosensitizer of $1.26{\times}10^{-4}/mo1/g$. A small-sized device for magnetic field and light emission was designed, in which LED sheets coverts the permanent magnet of Nd-Fe-B. The LED sheet was connected in series circuit and also protected with a silicon tube. The power was supplied with rechargable battery of 9V and 100-120mA.

The fabrications condition and superconducting properties of top-seeded melt growth (TSMG) processed $GdBa_2Cu_3O_{7-y}$ (Gd123) bulk superconductors were studied. Processing parameters (a maximum temperature ($T_{max}$), a temperature for crystal growth ($T_G$) and a cooling rate ($R_G$) through a peritectic temperature ($T_P$) for the fabrication of single grain Gd123 superconductors were optimized. The magnetic levitation forces, trapped magnetic fields, superconducting transition temperature ($T_c$) and critical current density ($J_c$) of the Gd123 bulks superconductors were estimated. Single grain Gd123 bulk superconductors were successfully fabricated at the optimized processing condition. The $T_c$ of a TSMG processed Gd123 sample was 92.5 K and the $J_c$ at 77 K and 0 T was approximately $50kA/cm^2$. The trapped magnetic field contour and magnetic levitation forces were dependent on the top surface morphology of TSMG processed Gd123 samples. The single grain Gd123 samples, field-cooled at 77 K using a Nd-B-Fe permanent magnet with 5.27 kG and 30 mm dia., showed the trapped magnetic field contour of a single grain with a maximum of 4 kG at the sample center. The maximum magnetic levitation forces of the single grain Gd123 sample, field-cooled or zero field-cooled, were 40 N and 107 N, respectively.

To reduce the processing cost of the single grain REBCO (RE: Rare-earth elements) bulk superconductors, a cost-effective process should be developed. One possible way of developing the cost-effective process is the use of low-cost precursor powders. In this study, the single grain YBCO superconductors were fabricated using a home made powder. $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-y}$ (Y123) powders were synthesized at $850-900^{\circ}C$ in air by the powder calcination method with repeated crushing and heat treatment steps. The processing parameters for the fabrication of single grain Y123 bulk superconductors, $T_{max}$ (maximum temperature), $T_p$ (peritectic temperature) and a cooling rate through $T_p$ were optimized. To enhance the flux pinning capacity of the single grain Y123 samples, $Y_2BaCuO_5$ (Y211) particles were dispersed in the Y123 matrix by adding $Y_2O_3$ powder to the calcined Y123 powder. Applying the optimized processing condition, the single grain Y123 superconductors with $T_c=91\;K$ and $J_c=1.5{\times}10^4\;A/cm^2$ at 2 T were successfully fabricated using a home made powder. The levitation forces and trapped magnetic field at 77 K measured using a Nd-B-Fe permanent magnet of 5300 G were 47 N and 3000 G, respectively, which are comparable to those obtained for the samples fabricated using a commercial grade Y123 powders.

Development of long-term mobile energy sources for mobile robots or small-sized unmanned vehicles are actively increasing. The micro gas turbine generator (MTG) is a good candidate for this purpose because it has both of high energy density and high power density, and 500W class MTG is under development. The designed MTG can be divided into 2 main parts. One part consists of motor/ generator and compressor, and the other one consists of combustor, recuperator and turbine. 500W class MTG is designed to operate at ultra-high speed of 400,000 rpm in high turbine temperature over $700^{\circ}C$ to improve the efficiency. Because the magnetism of NdFeB permanent magnet for the motor/generator could be degraded if the temperature is over $150-200^{\circ}C$, MTG needs the thermal insulation to block the heat transfer from combustor/turbine side to motor/generator side. Moreover, the motor/generator is allocated to get the cooling effect from the rapid air flow by the compressor. This study presents the experimental results to verify whether the thermal insulator and air flow are effective enough to keep the motor/generator part in the low temperature less than $100^{\circ}C$. From the motoring test by using the high temperature test rig, it was confirmed that the motor/generator part could maintain the temperature less than $50^{\circ}C$ under the condition of 1.0 bar compressed air.

본 연구는 정자기장 처리가 실내 관엽식물의 생육 및 생리적 특성에 미치는 영향과 그 작용 메커니즘을 파악하기 위해 수행되었다. 이를 위해 스파티필름(Spathiphyllum spp), 산호수(Ardisia pusilla DC.), 싱고니움(Syngonium podophyllum), 홀리아페페(Peperomia pereskiifolia) 및 필레아(Pilea cadierei)의 5종 관엽식물을 대상으로 안쪽 바닥면에 표면자속밀도 3,500G의 이방성 NdFeB계 원형 소결영구자석을 장착하여 자성처리한 화분에서 6개월간 생육시켜 나타난 변화를 관찰하였다. 자성처리화분에서의 생육은 스파티필름, 산호수 및 필레아에서 유의성 있는 생육증대를 유도하였으며 대부분의 식물종에서 조직 내 함수율을 증대시키는 것으로 나타났다. 스파티필름은 광합성률 또한 유의성 있게 증대되었으나 산호수 및 필레아의 경우 광합성률의 유의성 있는 증가가 나타나지 않았는데 이는 자성처리화분이 동화산물에 대한 정상적인 대사과정에서의 수요를 감소시킴으로써 생물량 축적에 보다 유리한 조건을 제공하는 것으로 해석된다. 그러나 홀리아페페의 경우 생육이나 광합성에 있어 별다른 차이가 유도되지 않았기 때문에 자성처리화분의 이와 같은 효과는 식물종에 따라 차이를 보일 것으로 생각된다. 실험에 사용된 대부분의 식물종에서 자성처리에 따른 엽 내 질소 및 엽록소 함량과 엽록소 a/b 비율에 유의성 있는 증가가 나타났다. 이와 같은 결과들은 식물종에 따른 제한은 있으나 적절한 자기장 처리를 통해 환경변화에 대한 관엽식물의 잠재적 적응능력을 높이고 실내 환경개선을 위한 실내식물의 활용도를 증대시킬 수 있는 가능성을 제시한다.

Large single grain $Gd_{1.5}Ba_2Cu_3O_{7-y}$ (Gd1.5) bulk superconductors were fabricated by a top-seeded melt growth (TSMG) process using an $NdBa_2Cu_3O_{7-y}$ seed. The seeded Gd1.5 powder compacts with a diameter of 50 mm were subjected to the heating cycles of a TSMG process. After the TSMG process, the diameter of the single grain Gd1.5 compact was reduced to 43 mm owing to the volume contraction during the heat treatment. The superconducting transition temperature ($T_c$) of the top surface of the single grain Gd1.5 sample was as high as 93.5 K. The critical current densities ($J_cs$) at 77 K and 1T and 1.5 T were in ranges of 25,200-43,900 $A/cm^2$ and 10,000-23,000 $A/cm^2$, respectively. The maximum attractive force at 77 K of the sample field-cooled using an Nd-B-Fe permanent magnet (surface magnetic field of 0. 527 T) was 108.3 N; the maximum repulsive force of the zero field-cooled sample was 262 N. The magnetic flux density of the sample field-cooled at 77 K was 0.311T, which is approximately 85% of the applied magnetic field of 0.375 T. Microstructure investigation showed that many $Gd_2BaCuO_5$ (Gd211) particles of a few ${\mu}m$ in size, which are flux pinning sites of Gd123, were trapped within the $GdBa_2Cu_3O_{7-y}$ (Gd123) grain; unreacted $Ba_3Cu_5O_8$ liquid and Gd211 particles were present near the edge regions of the single grain Gd1.5 bulk compact.
