In order to apply cylindrical periodic array to phased array antenna or frequency selective surface, efficient electromagnetic analysis is required. Finite periodic array is applied in real situation. But, generally, assumed that periodic structure is arranged infinitely, approximate electromagnetic characteristics can be obtained efficiently. But, difference of characteristics between real structure and approximate structure occurs because finite periodic array is approximated to infinite periodic array. Therefore, comparison and analysis of cylindrical infinite array and finite array are required. In this paper, cylindrical infinite periodic array are analyzed using cylindrical Floquet harmonics. Also, cylindrical finite periodic array is analyzed using method of moments (MoM) with thin wire approximation because periodic structures which are composed of strip with narrow width are analyzed. Transmission characteristics and surface currents of infinite and finite periodic structures are compared.

An underwater sound surveillance system detects and tracks enemy ships in real-time using hydrophone arrays, in which seabed-mounted sensor arrays play a pivotal role. In this paper the conceptual design of seabed-mounted, cylindrical hydrophone arrays for use in shallow coastal waters is performed via finite element calculations. To stabilize the receiving characteristics under the ocean ambient noise, a technique for whitening the ambient noise spectrum using a metal baffle is proposed. Optimization of the array configuration is performed to achieve the directivity in the vertical and azimuthal directions. And the effects of the sonar dome shape and material on the structural vibration and sound scattering properties are studied. It is demonstrated that a robust hydrophone array, having a sensitivity deviation less than 4 dB over the frequency range of interest, can be obtained through the whitening of the ambient noise, the optimization of the array configuration, and the design of acoustically transparent sonar domes.

최근 전 세계적으로 차세대 초고속 교통수단의 연구, 개발에 박차를 가하고 있다. 대표적으로 미국에서 개발하고 있는 하이퍼루프는 승객을 태운 차체가 원통형인 튜브안에서 최대 1200 km/h로 이동하는 초고속 교통수단이다. 이렇게 빠른 속도에 도달하기 위해서 수십 MW 수준의 상당히 큰 전력이 필요하며, 이러한 큰 전력소모에 의한 전력망의 부담을 덜기 위해, 태양광 시스템을 튜브에 장착하여 추진에 필요한 일부 전력을 태양광 발전으로 대체하는 시스템이 연구되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 튜브의 방향, 태양전지의 배열에 따른 에너지 생산량, 전력발전량 및 비용 등의 다각적인 측면에서의 분석을 제시하였다. 원통형 튜브에 부착되는 태양전의 배열을 여섯 가지 경우로 나누었을 때, 삼각 지붕 모양으로 태양전지를 배열한 Case 2가 가장 높은 에너지 생산량을 보였다. 하지만 태양전지의 단위면적 당 에너지 생산량을 비용으로 계산하였을 경우, 튜브 위에 평평하게 태양전지를 배열한 Case 1이 가장 높은 가격 경쟁력을 가졌다.

A cylindrical active phased array antenna that produced for verification the performance of the antenna are measured radiation characteristics in accordance with beam steering at L-Band.

The mutual radiation impedance was calculated using the spatial convolution in the cylindrical structure. The Cartesian coordinate was transformed into the cylindrical coordinate using the spatial convolution for the cylindrical array structure. This method cannot consider the cylindrical baffle, but can reduce the computation time. The error for not considering the cylindrical baffle was analyzed by the comparison of the spatial convolution method with the quadruple integration method in the cylindrical structure. The mutual radiation resistance in the cylindrical structure was compared with the one in the planar baffle. Based on two kinds of the comparison, we presented the error of the suggesting method in this paper, confirming that the spatial convolution method could be applied to compute the mutual radiation impedance in the cylindrical structure at certain conditions.

Ryu et al. proposed a multiple target angle-tracking algorithm with efficient equation for angular innovation, and Ryu's algorithm has good feature that it has no data association problem. Ryu's algorithm is only applicable to linear sensor array, because its efficient equation for angular innovation is derived in case of using a linear sensor array. In a many fields studying multiple target angle-tracking, the various shapes of sensor array are used. In sonar, a cylindrical sensor array is as much used as a linear sensor array, a example is hull mounted sonar. In this paper, Ryu's algorithm is modified to be applicable to cylindrical sensor array, and the tracking performance of a modified algorithm is verified by various computer simulations.

In this paper, a cylindrical hybrid antenna which is spatially fed by an off-set linear feed array is described to form complex beam patterns. The linear feed array consists of twelve micro-strip patch elements and forms a flat-topped beam pattern with a beam-width of $90^{\circ}$ in the horizontal plane. The vertical curve on the cylindrical reflector with the linear feed array is shaped in order to form a cosecant beam pattern within the range of $-5^{\circ}$ to $-25^{\circ}$ in the vertical plane. To form complex beam patterns, the hybrid antenna with cylindrical reflector aperture of $140{\times}50\;cm$ was designed and fabricated to be operated within the IMT 2000 service band, and also electrical performances of the antenna were measured and analyzed.

Recently international cooperations are formed to deal with the environmental pollution of the atmosphere generated by the vapor compression refrigeration system. A refrigeration technique, which can replace existing CFC refrigerants that are the main cause of environmental contamination, has received greater attention. Magnetic refrigeration is a refrigeration technique using the magnetocaloric effect of the magnetic material, and is an eco-friendly refrigeration technology using the solid refrigerant instead of CFC refrigerants. Also it is regarded as an efficient refrigeration system to generate temperature difference between high and low sides using the temperature change of magnetic refrigerants according to the change of magnetic field, instead of using power-consuming and noisy compressor. In this paper, we introduce the magnetic refrigeration apparatus using concentric Halbach cylinder permanent magnets and the experimental results using the apparatus.

This paper summarizes a solution procedure for a large cylindrical structure mounted underneath a ship as a sonar. Vibration analysis of the water loaded structure is required to enhance the structural reliability as well as acoustic performance of the sonar. It is, however, often very difficult to solve such structures since they have many DOFs, considering the frequency of interest and the water-loading. The mode mapping method is proposed and verified to take into account the water-loading with the minimum DOF for the analysis. The cyclic symmetric method is then reviewed to show how the eigen properties of the full model can be obtained from the representative segment model. The solution procedure is finally proposed and applied successfully for a simplified water-loaded cylindrical array structure.
