In the present work, we proposed an analytical study on buckling behavior of a sandwich plate with polymeric core integrated with piezo-electro-magnetic layers such as BaTiO3 and CoFe2O4 reinforced by graphene platelets (GPLs). The Halpin-Tsai micromechanics model is used to describe the properties of the polymeric core. The governing equations of equilibrium are obtained from first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) and the Navier's method is employed to solve the equations. The results show the effect of different parameters such as thickness, length, weight fraction of GPLs, and also effect of electric and magnetic field on critical buckling load. The result of this study can be obtained in the aerospace industry and also in the design of sensors and actuators.

This paper studies application of modified couple stress theory and first order shear deformation theory to magneto-electro-mechanical vibration analysis of three-layered size-dependent curved beam. The curved beam is resting on Pasternak's foundation and is subjected to mechanical, magnetic and electrical loads. Size dependency is accounted by employing a small scale parameter based on modified couple stress theory. The magneto-electro-mechanical preloads are accounted in governing equations to obtain natural frequencies in terms of initial magneto-electro-mechanical loads. The analytical approach is applied to investigate the effect of some important parameters such as opening angle, initial electric and magnetic potentials, small scale parameter, and some geometric dimensionless parameters and direct and shear parameters of elastic foundation on the magneto-electro-elastic vibration responses.

The objective of this paper is to provide a comparison between two transverse flux rotary machines (TFRM) with different topologies of stator cores. Depending on how to make stator core with laminated steel sheets, the one topology is 'perpendicular stacking core' and the other is 'separated core'. Both of the two cores have been designed considering 3-dimensional (3-D) magnetic flux path with the same output power conditions, but the core losses are quite different and it causes different magnetic and thermal characteristics. For comparison of these two topologies of stator cores, therefore, core losses have been calculated and used as a heat source in no-load conditions, and the thermal stress has been also calculated. 3-D finite element method has been used for the magnetic field, thermal, and stress analysis to consider the 3-D flux path of the TFRM. After comparing the analysis results of the two topologies, experimental results are also presented and discussed.

Electro-pneumatic valves are an electro-mechanical device which convert electric signal into pneumatic flow rate or pressure signal. Recently, the development tendency of electro-pneumatic valve is to make the valve with more compact and less electric power consumption style. To make the valve such as a style, the role of solenoid part is very important. This paper is used in the finite-element method for the purpose of evaluating the magnetic property of solenoid and analyze flux distribution of solenoid theoretically. From flux contour line which is obtained by numerical analysis, it verified that the plunger shape and physical property of solenoid part have influence on saturation phenomenon and leakage of magnetic fluxs. This paper made an experiment on the measurement of dynamic response time and force in order to confirm the propety of analytic result, and confirmed a good agreement between analysis results and experiment results.

Arc blow being occurred by Electro-Magnetic force(EMF) during the electric arc welding prevents the formation of a sound weldment. In this study, the effects of arc position, groove size, tack weld and base plate on the EMF in a butt-joint welding of mild steel plate are analyzed by a computer simulation based on the finite element method. The EMF can be numerically identified to be caused by a difference of the magnetic flux-density between ahead of and behind the arc in case that the workpiece locates asymmetrically around the uc. When there exists an air gap of groove ahead of the arc in the welding direction, the similar magnetic force has been producted regardless of the arc position and the gap size. The tack weld alleviates the magnetic force to about one fourth at the finish end of the workpiece. The magnetic force can be also significantly reduced with the base plate to about one fifth at the start end of the workpiece containing a tack weld.

Electro-pneumatic servo valve is an electro-mechanical device which converts electric signal into pneumatic flow rate or pressure. In order to improve the overall performance of pneumatic servo systems, electro-pneumatic servo valves are required, which have fast dynamic characteristic, no air leakage at null, and can be fabricated at a low-cost. The first objective of this research is to design and fabricate a new electro-pneumatic servo valve which satisfies the above-mentioned requirements. In this paper, we has been modeled as a system consisting of coupled electro-mechanic and mechanical subsystems. The appropriateness of the model has been verified by simulation. The simulation model resolves the valve body motion and the solenoid current at high accuracy. Also, we are calculate the displacement of spool and computed results show winding currents, magnetic actuator force, flux density line, displacement, velocity, back EMF, eddy current etc.

EMC (Electro Magnetic Compatibility) of the electrical railway must be ensured for safety of passenger. Maglev trains has not friction between the wheels and the rails because levitation by an permanent magnets, electromagnets and superconducting magnets etc. So, it is advantageous to maintain a high speed without noise and vibrations. In this paper, we investigated that the magnetic field of the before and after installation electromagnetic waves absorber in order to analyze the effects of electromagnetic waves. The theoretical analysis of the electromagnetic wave absorber was simulated using finite element method. The magnetic field properties of electromagnetic waves absorber were measured by EMI (Electro Magnetic Interference) test receiver.

It is very difficult to polish non-magnetic materials by the magnetic abrasive polishing (MAP) process because magnetic force is required for MAP, but the magnetic force for non.magnetic materials is low. In this study, we aimed to develop a magnetic array table and control the magnetic polarity such that the magnetic force can be increased for the MAP of non-magnetic materials. The newly designed magnetic array table has 32 electro magnets, and the magnetic polarity of each electro-magnet can be easily controlled by changing the electric polarity. It was analytically verified that the magnetic flux density of non-magnetic materials can be varied by varying the applied magnetic polarity.

Recently, the vacuum interrupters have been most widely used in medium voltage level. In the vacuum circuit breaker the most influential part is vacuum interrupter. By performing the precise electromagnetic analysis of the interrupter, we increase the capability of large current interruption. In this paper, diffuse arc and constricted arc are modeled to perform 3D electromagnetic analysis, and also flux distributions and electromagnetic force is calculated at the contacts' separation. It is expected these results will be used importantly in developing the new vacuum interrupters.
