Herein, different concepts for domain wall propagation based on currents and fields that could potentially be used in magnetic data storage devices based on domains and domain walls are reviewed. By direct imaging, we show that vortex and transverse walls can be displaced using currents due to the spin transfer torque effect. For the case of field-induced wall motion, particular attention is paid to the influence of localized fields and local heating on the depinning and propagation of domain walls. Using an Au nanowire adjacent to a permalloy structure with a domain wall, the depinning field of the wall, when current pulses are injected into the Au nanowire, was studied. The current pulse drastically modified the depinning field, which depended on the interplay between the externally applied field direction and polarity of the current, leading subsequently to an Oersted field and heating of the permalloy at the interface with the Au wire. Placing the domain wall at various distances from the Au wire and studying different wall propagation directions, the range of Joule heating and Oersted field was determined; both effects could be separated. Approaches beyond conventional field- and current-induced wall displacement are briefly discussed.

Since Wertheimer and Leeper reported possible adverse health effects of magnetic field in 1979, worldwide researches on this issue have been conducted. More recently, the U.S. Congress instructed the NIEHS (National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences), NIH (National Institute of Health) and DOE (Department of Energy) to direct and manage EMF RAPID (Electric and Magnetic Fields Research and Public Information Dissemination) program aimed at providing scientific evidence to clarify the potential for health risks from exposure to extremely low frequency electric and magnetic fields(ELF-EMF). Although they concluded that the scientific evidence suggesting adverse health risks of ELF-EMF is weak, the exposure to ELF-EMF cannot be recognized as entirely safe. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to describe magnetic field 3-D calculation and to evluate eddy current of human body compare to international guide line recognized one of the basic problems. In open boundary problem, Magnetic field using FEM is not advantageous in the point of the division of area and the proposition of the fictitious boundary. Therefore, we induced the analytic equation of magnetic field calculations so but the finite line segment based on Biot-Savarts law Also, Eddy currents induced due to ELF-EMF magnetic field are computed. To calculate induced currents, impedance method is used in this paper, An example model of human head with resolution of 1.27cm is used. In this paper, We evaluate the magnetic field and eddy current of human head around 765 kV transmission lines compare to international guide line.

In gastrointestinal smooth muscle, muscarinic stimulation by carbachol (CCh) activates nonselective cation channel current ($I_{CCh}$) which is facilitated by intracellular [$Ca^{2+}$] increase. Caffeine is widely used in experiments to mobilize $Ca^{2+}$ from intracellular stores. This study shows a strong inhibitory effect of caffeine on $I_{CCh}$ in guinea-pig gastric myocyte. In this study, the underlying mechanism of the inhibitory effect of caffeine was investigated. $I_{CCh}$ was completely suppressed by the addition of caffeine (10 mM) to the superfusing solution. Inhibition of $I_{CCh}$ by caffeine was not related to the intracellular cAMP accumulation which was expected from the phosphodiesterase-inhibiting effect of caffeine. The blockade of $InsP_3-induced$ $Ca^{2+}$ release by heparin had no significant effects on the activation of $I_{CCh}$. When the same cationic current had been induced by intracellular dialysis of $GTP[{\gamma}S]$ in order to bypass the muscarinic receptor, the inhibitory effect of caffeine was significantly attenuated. The results of this study indicate that both intracellular signalling pathways for $I_{CCh}$, proximal and distal to G-protein activation, are suppressed by caffeine. A major inhibition was observed at the proximal level.

To mitigate vibrations, tuned mass dampers(TMD) are widely used for long span bridges or high-rise buildings. Due to some durability concerns, such as fluid degradation, oil leakage, etc., the alternative solutions, such as the non-contacted eddy current damping (ECD), are proposed for mechanical devices in small scales. In the present study, a new eddy current damping TMD (ECD-TMD) is proposed and developed for large scale civil infrastructure applications. Starting from parametric study on finite element analysis of the ECD-TMD, the new design is enhanced via using the permanent magnets to eliminate the power need and a combination of a copper plate and a steel plate to improve the energy dissipation efficiency. Additional special design includes installation of two permanent magnets at the same side above the copper plate to easily adjust the gap as well as the damping. In a case study, the proposed ECD-TMD is demonstrated in the application of a steel arch bridge to mitigate the wind-induced vibrations of the flexible hangers. After a brief introduction of the configuration and the installation process for the damper, the mitigation effects are measured for the ambient vibration and forced vibration scenarios. The results show that the damping ratios increase to 3% for the weak axis after the installation of the ECD-TMDs and the maximum vibration amplitudes can be reduced by 60%.

The resistive fault current limiter (SFCL) is a very attractive device for power networks. But it has a serious Problem in using YBCO films for fault current limiter is inhomogeneities caused by imperpect manufacturing. So simultaneous quenches are a difficult problem which elements for current limiting are connected in series for increasing voltage ratings. We investigated extended electric field-current characteristics for current limiting element of YBCO film when O-130mT magnetic field is applied. And quench characteristics were investigated in over all element and between elements of YBCO films. From the experiments, it was shown that applied magnetic fields using solenoid coil induced uniform quench distribution for over all stripes and simultaneous quench in all elements for current limiting of YBCO film was realized. We have achieved resistive fault current limiter of 1.2kV/20A rating using magnetic field.

A Rogowski coil can measure alternating currents from a few amps to over 1 million amps in a frequency range from less than 0.1 Hz to about lMhz. A Rogowski coil provides an induced output voltage which is proportional to the rate of change of the primary current enclosed by the flexible or the rigid coil-loop. Therefore, it is necessary to integrate the output voltage in order to produce a voltage proportional to the current. Also. it can reproduce the current waveform on an oscilloscope or any type of data acquisition device. This paper describes the practical design of the combination of a Rogowski coil and an integrator which provides a versatile current measuring system to accommodate a wide range of frequencies, current levels and conductor sizes.

This paper describes a current differential relaying algorithm for a three-phase transformer considering the nonlinear magnetization characteristics of the core. The iron-loss current is obtained from the calculated induced voltage and the core-loss resistance. The magnetizing current is calculated from the estimated core flux and the magnetization curve. The proposed algorithm uses the modified differential current, which is obtained by subtracting the iron-loss current and the magnetizing current from the conventional differential current. The various test results show that the algorithm can discriminate internal fault from magnetic inrush, overexcitation and an external fault.

There are many kinds of motors operating by rated voltage which is constant. In this paper, the characteristics of separately excited direct current motor is analyzed when its terminal voltage is varied as its load current. As for this source, direct current generator of a series field is used, and it is driven at constant speed by a primemover. The induced voltage of the generator is propotional to its load current but it saturates as its load current is large. The charateristics of motor is studied by analog computer because of the nonlinearity of generator. The results are as follows: (1) The load current and the rotor speed of motor increase as the load of motor increases. But the speed of rotor decreases for the influence of the saturation of the iron of generator field when its load current is large. (2) Decreasing the inertia of motor and increasing the inductance of the armature circuit improve the stability of motor and the region of stable state. (3) By changing the field current of the motor, the speed and the direction of rotor can be controlled in wide range.

In this paper a radiation problem for a finite microstrip antenna structure is analyzed. For the analysis of finite structures we utilize the equivalent volume current. Intergral equation for the unknown equivalent volume current induced on a finite microstrip structure is derived and solved by the use of conjugate gradient-fast fourier. transform (CG-FFT) method. Some numerical examples are radiation patterns derived by the equivalent volume current solved by the conjugate gradient-fast fourier transform.
