The Electrostatic Inkjet system has many applications in cost and time effective manufacturing of printed electronics like RFIDs, OLEDs and flexible displays etc. This paper presents pneumatic ink supply system for an electrohydrodynamic deposition (EHD) setup for the precise pressure control to produce a small amount of discharge at the end of the capillary. The meniscus shape depends upon the applied pneumatic pressure to the ink supply system. Furthermore, this paper also compares meniscus shapes at different applied pneumatic pressures. It is concluded that patterning of constant line-width can be achieved better by controlling the meniscus shape using this technique.

A new method of oil separation from oil-contaminated seawater based on electromagnetic forces, so-called MHD method was designed and formulated. MHD method has advantages of easy treatment of separated oil as well as little effect upon the environment, comparing with a conventional separation method using magnetic powders. Assuming high polymer particles instead of oil, the separation ratio (the mass of simulation particles / the total mass of simulation particles) for the sample fluid was calculated as fuction of electric current, magnetic field and seawater velocity.

An electrostatic ink jet head can be used for manufacturing processes of large display systems and printed circuit boards (PCB) as well as inkjet printers because an electrostatic field provides an external force which can be manipulated to control sizes of droplets. The existing printing methods such as thermal bubble and piezo inkjet heads have shown difficulties to control the ejection of the droplets for printing applications. Thus, the new inkjet head using the electrostatic force has been proposed in this study. In order to prove the theory of the developed electrostatic ink jet head, the applicable and basic theory has been studied using distilled water and water with sodium dodecyl surfate (SDS). Also, a numerical analysis has been performed to calculate the intensity of the electrostatic field using the Maxwell's equation. Furthermore, experiments have been carried out using a downward glass capillary with outside diameter of $500{\mu}m$. The gravity, surface tension, and electrostatic force have been analyzed with high voltages of 0 to 5kV. It has been observed that the droplet size decreases and the frequency of the droplet formation and the velocity of the droplet ejection increase with increasing the intensity of the electrostatic field. The results of the experiments have shown good agreement with those of numerical analysis.

In the view point of the environmental conservation and the energy reduction, the recycling of metal scrap is coming as one of the global subjects in the world. In this study, the movement of intermetallics with electromagnetic force in a melt of a scrap of Al-Si-Cu alloy (JIS ADC12), which was widely used in diecasting process, was investigated in order to eliminate the Fe element, which was usually accumulated in a scrap. In this study, we applied electromagnetic method to eliminate Fe element in ADC12 aluminum alloy scrap which contains 1.64wt.% Fe and the effects of electromagnetic force on the particle movement was visualized and confirmed by water modeling and experiment. As a result, the Fe intermetallic compounds are moved to the direction opposite to that of the electromagnetic force as the force applies, thus eliminated from the bulk metal. Therefore, the content of Fe in matrix decreased from 1.64wt.% to 0.45wt.%.

Acoustic noise and vibration of a BLDC motor is a coupled phenomenon between mechanical characteristics and electromagnetic origins through the motor air-gap. When a relative misalignment of rotor in the air-gap center exists on the assemblage, it is considered to influence the motor system characteristics. In this paper, the back electro motive force(BEMF) is analyzed by Finite Element Method(FEM) and verified by experiments for the SPM and IPM type motors. For magnetic field analysis, a FEM is used to account for the magnetic saturation. Using these results, the FEM is made to determine the appropriate electromagnetic field analysis in BLDC motors with rotor eccentricity ratio. A radial magnetic imbalance force of BLDC motor with rotor eccentricity is analyzed. Results demonstrate that the imbalance force is increased according to the degree of misalignment. An IPM motor, mostly chosen to realize high-speed operation, shows a worse effect on magnetic unbalanced forces and dynamic responses compared with SPM motor due to magnetic saturation when the rotor eccentricity exists.

최근 디스플레이 산업과 태양전지 등의 이차 전지 산업이 발달함에 따라 원가절감과 공정단계의 단순화를 위하여 다이렉트 패터닝 인쇄에 대한 연구가 관심을 받고 있으며, 나노전자부품 제작이 요구되는 전기/전자 소자들은 수백 nm에서부터 수십 ${\mu}$m 수준까지 다양한 해상도의 패턴으로 구성되므로 미세패턴이 가능한 정전수력학 잉크젯프린팅 방식은 기존의 인쇄 방식과 달리, 정전기력을 이용하여 인쇄를 하는 방식으로, 수KV의 고전압을 인가하여 잉크를 대전시키고, 대전된 잉크는 대부의 전기적 반발력에 의해 액적이나 액실로 분열하게 된다. 전하를 띤 액적 또는 액실은 정전기력을 받아 기판 쪽으로 이동을 하게 되는데, 이때 액적의 전하량에 의해 액적의 이동속도와 이동경로가 영향을 받게 된다. 본 연구에서는 잉크의 전기전도도에 따른 액적의 전하량을 계산하여 전기전도도와 액적의 전하량과의 관계를 ANASYS 시뮬레이션과 운동경로 분석을 통해 확인하였다. 전기전도도가 0.307s/m~5.6s/m인 잉크에 따른 액적의 전하량을 계산하였으며, 전기전도도가 변화에 따라. 전하량이 $0.5{\times}10^{-13}C{\sim}2.5{\times}10^{-13}C$ 으로 변화하는 것을 확인하였다.

For an analysis of dynamic behavior in carbon nanotube(CNT) which is widely used as micro and nano-sensors, an electrostatic force of CNT was investigated. For larger gaps in between sensor and electrode the van der Waals force can be ignored. The boundary condition in the CNT was assumed to clamped-clamped case at both ends. In this paper electrostatic force is expressed as linear equation along deflection using Taylor series. The first and second terms(${\zeta}_0$ and ${\zeta}_1$) of the linear equation are analyzed. Based on the simulation results nondimensional number ${\Phi}_0$ and ${\Phi}_1$ which came from ${\zeta}_0$ and ${\zeta}_1$ were decreased according to the increment of the gap. Reduction ratio of the second term ${\zeta}_1$ is increased up to 99% along to the increment of the gap. The higher order terms can be ignored and therefore, electrostatic force can be expressed using the first two terms of the linear equation. This results play an important role in analyzing the nonlinear dynamic behavior of the CNT as well as the pull-in voltage of simply supported switches.

본 논문은 유리 기판과 실리콘 기판의 양극접합과 CMP공정을 통하여 정전기력으로 구동되는 마이크로 비틀림 액추에이터를 제작하고 이 제작된 액추에이터의 성능을 개선하는 방법과 실험에 관한 것이다. 이 비틀림 액추에이터는 미소 거울로 사용하기 위해 제작하였다. 미소 거울은 영상을 정확히 반사하거나 회절 시키는 것이 목적이지만 MEMS 공정의 특성 문제로 인해 일관적인 성능을 나타내는 것이 비교적 힘들다. 따라서 이를 개선하기 위해선 구조적인 접근 보다 실제 구동될 때의 현상을 보상하는 것이 필요하다. 일정한 입력전압에 비례하는 미소 거울의 변위를 알고 이를 기준으로 하여 시스템을 구동하여야 한다. 여기서 인가되는 전압에 비례하는 변위가 정확한지 측정을 해야 하고 만약 오차가 있다면 이를 개선하여야 한다. 또한 구동 시 발생하는 overshoot 현상과 작은 떨림 현상을 줄이고 빠른 시간 내에 응답하도록 시스템을 보상하여야 한다. 본 논문에선 PID 제어기법을 사용하여 $0.5^{\circ}$의 각도로 구동할 때를 기준으로 이 때의 구동전압 200V를 인가하고 오차를 측정하여 시스템을 보상하였다.

The electromagnetic force induced by an intense electric current pulse, which generates an electromagnetic field around the metal jet originating from a shaped charge, can disperse and scatter the high-speed metal jet. An electric device consisting of an RLC circuit applies an intense electric current pulse that flows in the circuit while the metal jet passes between two electrodes. In this study, the metal jet formation was simulated using the ALE technique in 2-D, and a 3-D finite element model was mapped using 2-D simulation results to induce the electric current directly. The deformed shapes of the metal jet and the electromagnetic force were calculated using a finite element analysis by inducing the electric current directly, and the major parameters of the intense electric current pulse for breaking up the metal jet were examined.
