Magnetic field is commonly used in low temperature processing plasmas in order to obtain high density. E $\times$ B magnetron or surface multipole configuration were most popular. However, the properties of capacitively coupled rf plasma confined by axially applied static magnetic fields have rarely been studied. In this paper, the effects of magnetic field on the characteristics of 13.56MHz/40KHz argon plasma will be reported. Ion saturation current, electron temperature and plasma potential were measured by Langmuir probe and omissive probe. At low pressure region ($\sim$10mTorr), ion current was increased by a factor of 3 - 4 due to reduction of diffusion loss of charged particles to the wall. It was observed that magnetic field induces large time variation of the plasma potential. The experimental result was compared with particle-in-cell simulation. It was also observed that electron temperature tend to decrease with increasing magnetic induction level for 40KHz discharge.

This tutorial explains that the static effect in the magnetotelluric (MT) survey is a physical phenomenon caused by charges accumulated on the boundaries of subsurface inhomogeneities. To facilitate understanding of the physical phenomenon, differences between static induction and charge accumulation on the boundary are explained and analyzed with help of schematic illustrations. Subsequently, from the electromagnetic (EM) integral equation formulation, it is clearly shown that the secondary electric field due to charges accumulated on the interface in the presence of the primary field appears as the static effect. Therefore, except in the cases of the layered earth or a two-dimensional earth with transverse magnetic (TM) mode excitation, the static effect always exists in MT responses and further, it is not 'static' but rather frequency dependent. Despite the fact that the static effect is a secondary electric field due to inhomogeneity, inevitable under-sampling in the frequency and spatial domains prevent the effect from being handled properly in numerical inversion. Therefore, considering the practical aspects of the MT survey, which cannot be a continuous measurement covering the entire survey area over a wide frequency band, a three-dimensional (3-D) inversion incorporating the static shift as a constraint with the Gaussian distribution is introduced. To enhance understanding of the integral equation EM modeling, the formulation of the 3-D integral equation and mathematical analyses of the Green tensor and scattering current are described in detail in the Appendix.

Magnetic field is commonly used in low temperature processing plasmas to enhance the performance of the plasma reactors. E$\times$B magnetron or surface multipole configuration is the most popular. However, the properties of capacitively coupled rf plasma confined by axial static magnetic field have rarely been studied. With these background, the effect of magnetic field on the characteristics of capacitively coupled 13.56 MHz/40 KHz argon plasma was studied, Ion saturation current, electron temperature and plasma potential were measured by Langmuir probe and emissive probe. At low pressure region (~10 mTorr), ion current increases by a factor of 3-4 due to reduction of diffusion loss of charged particles to the wall. Electron temperature slightly increases with magnetic field for 13.56 MHz discharge. However, for 40 KHz discharge, electron temperature decreased from 1.8 eV to 0.8 eV with magnetic field. It was observed that the magnetic field induces large temporal variation of the plasma potential. Particle in cell simulation was performed to examine the behaviors of the space potential. Experimental and simulation results agreed qualitatively.

The technology of AC solenoid valves is now considered as a core technology in the fields of the production line of semi-conductor chips and the micro fluid chips for medical applications. And AC solenoid valves, which operate by compressed air, are characterized by high speed response, great repeatability and that the pressure on the cross sectional area of poppet is kept constant regardless of the fluctuation of the pressure exerted on the ports. In this study, AC solenoid valves that posses the high-speed responsibility and the high rate of flow have designed and analyzed through the law of equivalent magnetic circuit and Finite Element Method (FEM) respectively. In case of poppet, Flow field characteristic was analyzed by the variation of poppet and it was able to display flow field by changing the location of the poppet. Also, we verified possibility of the design through the static and dynamic pressure and the 3D distribution curve of the force by working the front poppet.

An internal finishing process by the application of magnetic abrasive machining has been developed as a new technology to obtain a fine inner surface of pipe. In this paper, the finishing process of a non-ferromagnetic pipe by a static magnetic field method is introduced and its finishing characteristics is discussed with effective factors by various experiments. From these experimental results, it is found that the magnetic abrasives inserted in the pipe are arranged according to the magnetic force line. Through the experimental, it is possible to estimate the proper supply volume of the abrasive, which in proportional to the diameter of pipe.

Magnetic suspensions based on passive levitation of diamagnetic materials on permanent magnets provide attractive systems for several applications on the micro and meso scales. The magnetic properties of these kinds of suspensions dramatically reduce the global mechanical stiffness of the devices providing significant effects on their dynamic response. The goal of this paper is to investigate the static and dynamic behavior of magnetic suspensions with respect to its dependant parameters. Experimental measurements have been performed on the response of dedicated prototypes where the geometrical dimensions and magnetic field strength have been intended as variable parameters. Some benefits have been documented in the fields of energy harvesting and inertial sensing, while additional applications of magnetic suspensions are under investigation.

This study tries to test and analyze the static friction torque generated by an electromagnetic clutch. Then the torque is improved by optimizing the shape of armature. For the purpose of design change and optimization of the electromagnetic clutch, the static friction torque prediction is very important. We construct an axi symmetric FEM model for analyzing the static friction torque and used a torque tester for evaluating the real torque. For a test, predicted static friction torque is compared with the experimental one to discuss the rationality of torque analysis process. The analytical result agrees well with experimental data, explaining the validity of the mathematical process and FEM model. After confirming the torque analysis process, the optimization process is investigated. The optimization result shows that the static torque is improved by changing the armature shape.

This paper presents the materials analysis for combination of working modes of Magnetorheological (MR) damper. The materials were selected based on the optimum magnetic field strength at the effective areas in order to obtain a better design of MR damper. The design of electromagnetic circuit is one of the critical criteria in designing MR dampers besides the working mechanism and the types of MR damper. The increase in the magnetic field strength is an indication of the improvement in the damping performance of the MR damper. Eventually, the experimental test was performed under quasi-static loading to observe the performances of MR damper in shear mode, squeeze mode and mixed mode. The results showed that the increment of forces was obtained with the increased current due to higher magnetic flux density generated by electromagnetic coils. In general, it can be summarized that the combination of modes generates higher forces than single mode for the same experimental parameters throughout the study.
