STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Detachment of the magnetic assembly from the denture base has been a problem in magnetic overdenture patients. PURPOSE: The objectives of this study were to compare the dislodging force by the fixing materials and the designs of the magnetic assembly, and to compare the effect between the fixing materials and the designs of the magnetic assembly. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Two fixing materials, Jet denture repair $acrylic^{(R)}$ and Super-$Bond^{(R)}$ C&$B^{(R)}$ and two types of magnetic assembly designed with or without wing were used. Each magnetic assembly was fixed in the chamber of the denture base resin block ($Lucitone^{(R)}$199) with each fixing material respectively. These specimens were thermocycled 2,000 cycles in the water held at $4^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$ with a dwell time of 1 min each time. Each specimen was seated in a testing jig and then a push-out test was performed with a universal testing machine at a cross head speed of 0.5 mm/min to measure the maximum dislodging forces. RESULTS: Comparing the fixing materials, Super-Bond C&$B^{(R)}$ showed superior dislodging force than Jet denture repair $acrylic^{(R)}$. Comparing the design of the magnetic assemblies, the wing design magnetic assembly showed better dislodging force. Combination of the Super-Bond C&$B^{(R)}$ as a fixing material and wing design magnetic assembly revealed a greatest dislodging force. The kind of fixing material was more influential than the type of magnetic assembly. CONCLUSION: The dislodging force of Super-Bond C&$B^{(R)}$ was significantly higher than Jet denture repair $acrylic^{(R)}$. And the dislodging force of magnetic assembly which have wing design was significantly higher than magnetic assembly which have no wing design.

A magnet assembly is a critical element of a nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR) based sensor. Magnetic flux density and homogeneity are essential to its optimum performance. Geometry and magnet material properties determine the magnetic flux density and homogeneity of the assembly. This study was carried out to develop the design for a magnet assembly. A 2-D finite element model for the magnetic assembly was developed using ANSYS and evaluated the effects of adding shimming frames and steel bars in the corners of the rectangular steel cover which surrounded the magnet. The assembly was manufactured and evaluated. According to the ANSYS model, modified pole frames increased magnetic flux density by 8.3% and increased homogeneity by 83%. Addition of steel bars in the corners increased the magnetic flux density by 1%, and improved homogeneity up to three times. The difference between simulated and measured magnetic flux densities at the center point of the air gap was within 2.4%.

There are many actuators and sensors used for attitude control system for KOMPSAT such as Reaction Wheel Assembly, Magnetic Torque Assembly, Dual Thruster Module, Solar array Drive, Three Axis Magnetometer, Conical Earth Sensor, Fine Sun Sensor Assembly, Coarse Sun Sensor Assembly, Gyro Reference Assembly and so on. For KOMPSA T satellite it has been considered using the Magnetic Torquer (MTQ) generating the magnetic dipole moment. In general, the magnetic dipole moment for satellite attitude control system is used for dumping out the excessive reaction wheel momentum so that the reaction wheel speed is not saturated. The objective of this study is to analyze the magnetic field characteristics generated by the Magnetic Torquer using the Maxwell 2D Field Simulator software. Currently, the developing model (DM) of the MTQ is being developed and manufactured at a company under the supervision of KARL MTQ is an electromagnet consisting of a ferromagnetic cylindrical core on which an excitation coil is wound. A current is passed through the coil to produce a dipole momentum in the ferromagnetic core. The configuration of the MTQ will be introduced in the presentation. The 2 dimensional model of the MTQ is drawn as axisymmetric models in RZ plane, and each corresponding material is assigned to the each MTQ object, the core, coil, and background. After the boundary conditions, current sources, and solution parameters are set up, the magnetic field intensities, directions, and other values specified by users can be calculated by using the finite element analysis. The theoretical magnetic field quantities obtained by the Maxwell 2D Simulator can be used for the basis of the development of the MTQ.

In this paper, we have been described a new constructing method of multichannel biosensor using self-assembly by magnetic force interaction. A metal particle and an array was fabricated by photolithographic. Biomaterials were immobilized on the metal particle. The array and the particles were mixed in a buffer solution, and were arranged by magnetic force interaction and self-assembly. A quarter of total Ni dots were covered by the particles. The binding direction of the particles was controllable, and condition of particles was almost with Au surface on top. The particles were successfully arranged on the array. The biomaterial activities were detected by chemiluminescence.

We report on a simple and robust route to the spontaneous assembly of well-ordered magnetic nanoparticle superstructures by irreversible evaporation of a sessile single droplet of a mixture of a ferrofluid (FF) and a nonmagnetic fluid (NF). The resulting assembled superstructures are seen to form well-packed, vertically arranged columns with diameters of $5{\sim}0.7{\mu}m$, interparticle spacings of $9{\sim}2{\mu}m$, and heights of $1.3{\sim}3{\mu}m$ The assembled superstructures are strongly dependent on both the magnitude of magnetic field and the mixing ratio of the mixture. As the magnitude of the externally applied magnetic field and the mixing ratio of the mixture increase gradually, the size and interspacing of the magnetic nanoparticle aggregations decrease. Without an externally applied magnetic field, featureless patterns are observed for the ${\gamma}-Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticle aggregations. The proposed approach may lead to a versatile, cost-effective, fast, and scalable fabrication process based on the field-induced self-assembly of magnetic nanoparticles.

An amphiphilic diacetylene compound was deposited on the surface of nano sized magnetite particles ($Fe_3O_4$) using a self-assembly method. The diacetylene molecular assembly formed on the surface of nanoparticle was subjected to photopolymerization. This resulted in the formation of a polymeric assembly on the surface of the nanoparticles in which the adjacent diacetylene molecules were connected through conjugated covalent networks. The presence of immobilized polymer species on the surface of nanoparticles is expected to protect them from agglomeration and ripening, thereby stabilizing their physical properties. In this work, $Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticles were prepared by chemical coprecipitation method and the diacetylene molecule 10,12- pentacosadiynoic acid (PCDA) was anchored to the surface of $Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticles through its carboxylate head group. Irradiation of UV light on the nanoparticles containing immobilized diacetylenes resulted in the formation of a polymeric assembly. Presence of diacetylene molecules on the surface of nanoparticles was confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and FT-IR measurements. Photopolymerization of the diacetylene assembly was detected by UV-Visible spectroscopy. Magnetic properties of the nanoparticles coated with polymeric assembly were investigated with SQUID and magnetic hysteresis showed superparamagnetic behaviors. The results put forward a simple and effective method for achieving polymer coating on the surface of magnetic nanoparticle.

Hybrid-type magnetic bearings using both permanent magnets and electromagnets have been used for rotating machinery. In the case of conventional thrust hybrid magnetic bearings supporting axial loads, radially magnetized permanent ring magnets, which have several demerits such as difficult magnetization and assembly, have been used to generate bias flux. In this study, a novel thrust hybrid magnetic bearing using an axially magnetized permanent ring magnet is presented. Because it is easy to magnetize a ring magnet in the axial direction, the segmentation of the ring magnet for magnetization is not required and the assembly process can be simplified. For verifying the performance of the proposed method, a test rig that consists of a proposed thrust magnetic bearing and variable loads is constructed. This paper presents the detailed design procedures and the obtained experimental results. The results show that the developed thrust magnetic bearing has the potential to replace conventional thrust magnetic bearings.
