Magnetic anomalies are sensitive to magnetic properties present in deep Earth and near surface structures. Such geophysical characteristics often can be quantified by numerical analyses. In this study, we developed a finite element method (FEM) approach to compute magnetic anomalies using COMOL $Multiphysics^{(R)}$. This FEM approach was verified by comparing its numerical results with the previously known analytic solution for a uniformly magnetized sphere. Then, we used the method to compute magnetic reversal patterns near mid-ocean ridge with various faulting scenarios. This COMSOL-based approach can be incorporated into advanced multi-physical numerical models to understand the Earth.

From among the NDT (nondestructive testing) methods, the MFL (magnetic flux leakage) method is specially suitable for testing pipelines because pipeline has high magnetic permeability. The system applied to MFL method is called the MFL PIG. The previous MFL PIG showed high performance in detecting the metal loss and corrosions. However, MFL PIG is highly unlikely to detect the cracks which occur by exterior-interior pressure difference in pipelines and the shape of crack is long and very narrow. In MFL PIG, the magnetic field is performed axially and there is no changes of cross-sectional area at cracks that the magnetic field passes through. Cracks occur frequently in the pipelines and the risk of the accident from the cracks is higher than that from the metal loss and corrosions. Therefore, the new PIG is needed to be researched and developed for detecting the cracks. The circumferential MFL (CMFL) PIG performs magnetic fields circumferentially and can maximize the magnetic flux leakage at the cracks. In this paper, CMFL PIG is designed and the distribution of the magnetic fields is analyzed by using 3 dimensional nonlinear finite element method (FEM). In CMFL PIG, cracks, standards of NACE, are detectable. To estimate the shape of crack, the leakage of magnetic fields for many kinds of cracks is analyzed and the method is developed by signal processing.

Remote Field Eddy Current Testing (RFECT), one of the ways which is a nondestructive testing using electromagnetic fields, can make up for Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL) weaknesses and general Eddy Current Testing (ECT) weaknesses which is an occurrence of a huge friction force or disadvantage of detecting defects on the outer wall. So many of institutes and laboratories have studied on RFECT for the past 50 years. But There is a lack of discussion about a study on eddy current and magnetic field distributions in a pipe wall and designing of RFECT exciter coil. In this paper, eddy current and magnetic field distributions in a pipe wall and influence of altering variables are analyzed. Also, the optimal design algorithm about the RFECT Exciter coil are proposed, and influence on defect signals caused by alteration of its shape is analyzed.

An MRC(Magneto-rheological Clutch) has a great potential of application because of its good transmissibility, little wear-out and fast response to electrical control signal. Though many MRCs have been developed for years, there has not been an research on the method to predict the performance of MRC except the simplified mathematical models. But the simplified mathematical models do not fit well since their performance has close relations with shapes of clutches and viscosity distribution throughout the fluids caused by applied magnetic fields. in this study, the CFD and FEM analyses were applied to various shape of MRC and the methods were examined in experiments.

This paper presents an optimal design of magnetorheological(MR) damper based on analytical methodology and finite element analysis. The proposed MR damper consists of MR valve and gas chamber. The MR valve is constrained in a specific volume and the optimization problem identifies geometric dimensions of the valve structure that maximize the pressure drop of the MR valve or damping force of the MR damper. In this work, the single-coil annular MR valve structure is considered. After describing the schematic configuration and operating principle of MR valve and damper, a quasi-static model is derived based on Bingham model of MR fluid. The magnetic circuit of the valve and damper is then analyzed by applying the Kirchoff’s law and magnetic flux conservation rule. Based on the quasi-static modeling and the magnetic circuit analysis, the optimization problem of the MR valve and damper is built. The optimal solution of the optimization problem of the MR valve structure constrained in a specific volume is then obtained and compared with the solution obtained from finite element method.

이 논문은 무선 전력 전송을 이용하는 마우스의 급전 패드와 리시버 설계 방법을 제안한다. 마우스의 급전 패드는 코일의 턴간 간격을 불균등하게 조절하여 균일한 자기장을 급전 패드 상에서 얻게 하며, 집전코일은 급전코일과 비교해 크기가 작기 때문에 낮은 결합계수와 품질계수를 가져 원하는 전압을 얻기 어려운데 이를 위해 PCB 코일을 멀티레이어로 제작하고 PCB 패턴의 폭을 조절하여 높은 인덕턴스를 갖게 설계한 후 유한요소해석을 통해 설계한 시스템을 시험했다.

This paper describes a current sensor for precision current measurement of an electronic watt-hour meter that is going to install in houses in the future. As the current sensor is based on an cored principle (the Rogowski principle) it is not subject to usual limitations of saturation and non-linearity of general current transformers. An advantage of the developed current sensor is that non-linearity error in low current range is improved and the construction can be kept simple using an air core. We present a magnetic field analysis of the sensor using a finite-element solver. We compared the measured values versus the calculated values.

To get the spatial feature of arterial pulse, we designed spatial pulse diagnostic apparatus (SPDA) using a 2-dimensional magnetoresistive sensor array. The magnetic field distribution fur magnet may was simulated using finite element method. We recognized that the field distribution of parallel magnet mays was more sensitive and uniformed than that of perpendicular one. Also the spatial displacements of magnet array were agreed with the output signal of magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) sensor array.
