With polymer properties and ceramic volume fraction as design variables, the optimal structure of 1-3 piezocomposites has been determined to maximize the thickness mode electromechanical coupling factor. When the piezocomposite vibrates in a thickness mode, inter-pillar resonant modes are likely to occur between lattice-structured piezoceramic pillars and polymer matrix, which significantly deteriorates the performance of the piezocomposite. In this work, a new method to design the structure of the 1-3 type piezocomposite is proposed to maximize the thickness mode electromechanical coupling factor while preventing the occurrence of the inter-pillar modes. Genetic algorithm was used for the optimal design, and the finite element analysis method was used for the analysis of the inter-pillar mode.

This paper present a new disk-type piezoelectric transformer. The input side of the transformer has a crescent-shaped electrode and the output side has a focused poling direction. This transformer has multi-layered structure. The piezoelectric transformers operated m each transformer's resonance vibration mode. The electrodes and poling directions on commercialy available piezoelectric ceramic disks were designed so that the planar or shear mode coupling factor ($k_p,\;k_{15}$) becomes effective rather than the transverse mode coupling factor ($k_{31}$). The Resonance frequency is 65.22[kHz] and maximum voltage step-up ratio is 149. Multi-layered transformer has better efficiency and step-up ratio than the single-layered transformer.

In this paper, we proposed the directional coupler using two layer microstrip substrate which is improved coupling and isolation. Also, we notified a design method. Modified re-entrant mode coupler is the structure added to the aperture on the ground plane in order to improving the coupling value. And, by adding to slits on the floating conductor, this structure has good performance in isolation, VSWR according to S$\sub$11/, and phase difference. As a result, proposed re-entrant mode microstrip directional coupler has about 1.5 dB more higher coupling and 20 dB more higher isolation than conventional coupler. And because this coupler has good performance in phase difference, it can be used multi-section coupler.

In this paper, a novel triple-mode cavity structure, designed for compactness and operating at 850 MHz, is analyzed. A cylindrical dielectric resonator is loaded into a metallic cylindrical cavity. Previous study has been focused on the analysis of the cylindrical dielectric resonator, but in this paper, the effect of the cylindrical metallic cavity has been analyzed. Enclosing the dielectric resonator inside the metallic cavity increases the resonant frequency of the dielectric resonator; however, this increases the quality factor and introduces the possibility of installing coupling screws. The principle of generation of triple-mode was investigated by parametric analysis. The generated triple-mode is TE011 mode and two orthogonally generated HEM121 modes. By adjusting the radius of the dielectric resonator, the height of the dielectric resonator, or the radius of the cylindrical metallic cavity, three modes could be coincided. However, the height of the metallic cavity keeps three modes separated. The mode characteristics of the proposed cavity are analyzed using a full-wave electromagnetic (EM) simulation. The proposed triple-mode cavity could be developed to triple-mode filter using a coupling screw, and the commercial application for the miniaturized filter below 1 GHz could be expected.

In order to effectively utilize the Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing(CWDM) technology in optical integrated devices, a design of a wavelength selective coupler structure between an optical fiber and an optical waveguide in a flat substrate is can be considered. In this paper, we consider the coupling between a silicon waveguide with an air trench and a single mode fiber. We investigated the tendency of coupling efficiency and its limitations according to the grating depth. For this purpose, the coupling efficiency of coupler structure designed through modeling based on coupled mode theory is predicted and quantitatively compared with simulation results using finite element method.

A novel Genetic Algorithm(GA)-based method is suggested to transform a coupling matrix to another, without the procedure of Matrix Rotation. This can remove tedious work like pivoting and deciding rotation angles needed for each of the iterations. The error function for the GA is simply formed and used as part of error minimization for obtaining the solution. An 8th order dual-mode elliptic integral function response filter is taken as an example to validate the present method.

The cylindrical TEM mode solution for electromagnetic coupling to an angled two-wire transmission line is corrected by imposing some physical constraints additionally. The validity of the correction process is assured by showing that the corrected solution approaches the numerical result for the equivalent model of cascaded piecewise uniform sections.

This paper suggested the vibration characteristic improvement by variation mode of ring type ultrasonic motor. Design for the piezoelectric ceramic and elastic body of stator were calculated by the finite element method(FEM) that consider the resonance frequency, vibration mode and coupling efficiency etc. Through the result of vibration analysis from 6 order mode to 8 mode, the 7 order mode was gained very an excellent results that it was the coupling efficient, minimum power loss and bending vibration value. Here over 7 order mode, this paper was acquired that an output current for input voltage was very a large increased results. The result of vibration calculation, from thickness 0.5[mm] to 2[mm], knew the fact that the vibration displacement at 0.5[mm] is an high value too. From such result, this paper was manufactured the ultrasonic motor of outer diameter 5O[mm] , inter 22[mm] having the about 43.86[KHz] resonance frequency. We have gated that a simulation result is 42.2[KHz] and an experiment result is 43.86[KHzl The propriety of this paper was established though comparison. investigation of simulation and experiment result.

In helioseismology it is normally assumed that p-mode oscillations are excited in a statistically independent fashion. Unfortunately, however, this issue is not clearly settled down in that two experiments exist, which apparently look in discrepancy. That is, Appourchaux et al. (2000) looked at bin-to-bin correlation and found no evidence that the assumption is invalid. On the other hand, Roth (2001) reported that p-mode pairs with nearby frequencies tend to be anti-correlated, possibly by a mode-coupling effect. This work is motivated by an idea that one may test if there exists an excess of anticorrelated power variations of pairs of solar p-modes. We have analyzed a 72-day MDI spherical-harmonic time series to examine temporal variations of p-mode power and their correlation. The power variation is computed by a running-window method after the previous study by Roth (2001), and then distribution function of power correlation between mode pairs is produced. We have confirmed Roth's result that there is an excess of anti-correlated p-mode pairs with nearby frequencies. On the other hand, the amount of excess was somewhat smaller than the previous study. Moreover, the distribution function does not exhibit significant change when we paired modes with non-nearby frequencies, implying that the excess is not due to mode coupling. We conclude that the origin of this excess of anticorrelations may not be a solar physical process, by pointing out the possibility of statistical bias playing the central role in producing the excess.
