A chrome absorbent that is useful in rapid magnetic recovery and recycling was developed though a synthesis of Multi-Terminalized Magnetic-core Dendrimer (MTMD). Divergence through coprecipitation and rotation growth was used for synthesis. The dendrimer was multi-terminilized through methyl propionate and glutaric acid. The property analysis of the synthesized sample was performed through XRD, FT-IR, TEM, EDS, TGA and zeta potential analyzer. A magnetic-core of MTMD had a magnetite crystal and the size of 4th generation dendrimer was identified to be from 15 nm to 20 nm. Through the analysis of the TGA, the rate of the dendrimer branch for the first generation dendrimer was about 7% and 3% of diminished weight occurred as the generation grows. Also, the potential of the dendrimer when multi-terminalized, had variation from 25.26 mV to -6.53 mV. As a result of MTMD adsorption experiment, it absorbed more than 80% within 5 minutes and indicated absorptivity of 6.308 mg/g. When it was compared with COOH Dendrimer (COOH-D) after magnetic recovery, the recovery time was rapidly reduced by more than half and it could recover 100% within 30 minutes. In case of the regeneration experiment that used chrome, it was identified to maintain the same adsorptivity for four runs.

The push pull forward converter is suitable in a low output voltage, a high output current applications with wide input voltage ranges. All magnetic components including output inductor, transformer and input filter can be integrated into single EI/EE core. The integrated push pull forward converter is considered through the comparison of efficiency according to the circuit parameters. The Nicera company's 5M FEE18/8/10C and NC-2H FEI32/8/20 cores are used for the transformer. The integrated push pull forward converter ratings are of $36\~72V$ input and 3.3V/30A output. In case that NC-2H FEI32/8/20 core used in the converter, the efficiency is measured up to $83.5\%$ at the switching frequency 200 kHz and the 11A load. The efficiencies of $76.4\%$ at a full load and $82.95\%$ at a half load are measured.

Frequency and temperature dependence of magnetic loss has been investigated in Mn-Zn ferrites containing the sesistive temary compounds of $SiO_2-CaO-V_2O_5$. The Mn-Zn ferrite with the composition of $MnO:ZnO:Fe_2O_3=36:11:53$(by mol %) are prepared by self-propagating high-temperature synthesis. From the results of frequency dependence of core loss, it has been found that the hysteresis loss is dominant at low frequency and the eddy current loss becomes more dominant as the frequency increases. With the addition of resistive compound, the frequency dependence of core loss, it has been found that the hysteresis loss is dominant at low frequency and the eddy current loss becomes more dominant as the frequency increases. With the addition of resistive compound, the frequency region where the hysteresis loss is dominant becomes wide. The core-loss minimum occurs at about 4$0^{\circ}C$ in the specimens with the additive because of the reduction in eddy current loss.

To control the stochastic vibration of a vibration-sensitive instrument supported on a beam, the beam is designed as a sandwich structure with magneto-rheological visco-elastomer (MRVE) core. The MRVE has dynamic properties such as stiffness and damping adjustable by applied magnetic fields. To achieve better vibration control effectiveness, the optimal bounded parametric control for the MRVE sandwich beam with supported mass under stochastic and deterministic support motion excitations is proposed, and the stochastic and shock vibration suppression capability of the optimally controlled beam with multi-mode coupling is studied. The dynamic behavior of MRVE core is described by the visco-elastic Kelvin-Voigt model with a controllable parameter dependent on applied magnetic fields, and the parameter is considered as an active bounded control. The partial differential equations for horizontal and vertical coupling motions of the sandwich beam are obtained and converted into the multi-mode coupling vibration equations with the bounded nonlinear parametric control according to the Galerkin method. The vibration equations and corresponding performance index construct the optimal bounded parametric control problem. Then the dynamical programming equation for the control problem is derived based on the dynamical programming principle. The optimal bounded parametric control law is obtained by solving the programming equation with the bounded control constraint. The controlled vibration responses of the MRVE sandwich beam under stochastic and shock excitations are obtained by substituting the optimal bounded control into the vibration equations and solving them. The further remarkable vibration suppression capability of the optimal bounded control compared with the passive control and the influence of the control parameters on the stochastic vibration suppression effectiveness are illustrated with numerical results. The proposed optimal bounded parametric control strategy is applicable to smart visco-elastic composite structures under deterministic and stochastic excitations for improving vibration control effectiveness.

As a high energy permanent magnet is commonly applied to motors so that small motors have high power capacities, it is also necessary to reduce a cogging torque which causes a noise and vibration in permanent magnet motors. The patterns of cogging torque in permanent magnet motors depend on the magnetic field distributions, so it is possible to reduce a cogging torque by designing a core shapes optimally. But it is known that an optimum design algorithm for reduction of cogging torques is too complicated and the process to get an optimized core shape is time consuming task. In this paper, new simplified core shapes are suggested to reduce a design parameters so that the core shapes to reduce a cogging torques could be obtained with simple computations. The result shows that the cogging torques of permanent magnet motors with this simplified core shapes could be reduced effectively without any loss of average torques.

A novel biguanide-functionalized $Fe_3O_4/SiO_2$ magnetite nanoparticle with a core-shell structure was developed for utilization as a heterogeneous organosuperbase in chemical transformations. The structural, surface, and magnetic characteristics of the nanosized catalyst were investigated by various techniques such as transmission electron microscopy (TEM), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM), elemental analyzer (EA), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), $N_2$ adsorption-desorption (BET and BJH) and FT-IR. The biguanide-functionalized $Fe_3O_4/SiO_2$ nanoparticles showed a superpara-magnetic property with a saturation magnetization value of 46.7 emu/g, indicating great potential for application in magnetically separation technologies. In application point of view, the prepared catalyst was found to act as an efficient recoverable nanocatalyst in nitroaldol and domino Knoevenagel condensation/Michael addition/cyclization reactions in aqueous media under mild condition. Additionally, the catalyst was reused six times without significant degradation in catalytic activity and performance.

This paper deals with a study to improve the performance of Moving Coil type Linear Oscillatory Actuator (MC-LOA) considering unbalanced magnetic circuit. MC-LOA has an unbalanced magnetic circuit due to its asymmetric structure. In this type of LOA, the airgap flux density tends to have different magnitude along mover's displacement and the current directions. The above property causes eccentric of displacement center and interferes with the proper oscillation of LOA. Therefore, this paper presents two models having the unbalanced magnetic circuit and the other balanced by the saturated core. In order to compare the characteristics between the two models, a characteristic analysis for both the basic model and the improved model is performed by their dynamic analysis composed of kinetic and electric equations and Finite Element Method (FEM). The propriety of the improved model is verified through the experimental results.

In this Paper, we suggest the precision stage using a novel non-contact planar actuator that utilizes an interaction between an array type of air-core solenoids and permanent magnets. The former with axes arranged in the mutually orthogonal direction is fixed on the stator and the latter with the same polar direction is attached below the stage. The promising magnetic structure has little uncertainty such as hysteresis loss caused by ferromagnetic material, then it is simple to quantify the magnetic phenomenon. And all the magnetic forces are transmitted through narrow air-gap between the coil and the permanent magnet, therefore the structure can be highly compacted. Furthermore, the stage or plate can be perfectly isolated from the stator without any wire connection, leading to diminish the generating possibility of wear particles due to mechanical contact. Then. it is estimated that the proposed operating principle is very suitable for work requiring high accuracy and cleanness. or general-purpose nano stage. The main issues rebated to the plate driving are discussed here.

An improved bridgeless interleaved boost power factor correction (PFC) rectifier to improve power efficiency and component utilization is proposed in this study. With combined conventional bridgeless PFC circuit and interleaved technology, the proposed rectifier consists of two interleaved and magnetic inter-coupling boost bridgeless converter cells. Each cell operates alternatively in the critical conduction mode, which can achieve the soft-switching characteristics of the switches and increase power capacity. Auxiliary blocking diodes are employed to eliminate undesired circulating loops and reduce current-sensing noise, which are among the serious drawbacks of a dual-boost PFC rectifier. Magnetic component utilization is improved by symmetrically coupling two inductors on a unique core, which can achieve independence from each other based on the auxiliary diodes. Through the interleaved approach, each switch can operate in the whole line cycle. A simple control scheme is employed in the circuit by using a conventional interleaved controller. The operation principle and theoretical analysis of the converter are presented. A 600 W experimental prototype is built to verify the theoretical analysis and feasibility of the proposed rectifier. System efficiency reaches 97.3% with low total harmonic distortion at full load.
