In this research, we studied on improvement of the attraction force of solenoid operated valve for normal operation in harsh environment like vessel. Attraction force of the solenoid valves is effected by the B-H characteristics of magnetic material and the size of coil. In order to specify impact of the affection, we performed the B-H characteristics test and attraction force. Test results show that magnetic flux densities of the materials are difference each other more than 2 times in same magnetic intensity, and attraction force of the solenoid valve is 1.7 times difference as changes of resistance and the number of coil winding of solenoid.

Magnetic abrasive polishing is one of the nontraditional machining technologies newly developed. But it was very difficult to cut non-magnetic materials using MAP process because the process was fundamentally possible by help of a magnetic farce. In this study, we aimed to verify analytically formation of the magnetic field in a case of the nonmagnetic materials especially focused on an aluminum alloy. And also an improving strategy of the magnetic force for the non-magnetic materials was proposed and experimentally verified. Design of experimental method was adopt for assessment of parameters' effect on the MAP results of the aluminum alloy.

This study introduces a new topology optimization scheme combing the genetic algorithm (GA) with the on/off sensitivity method for the magnetic actuator core and the armature design. The design process intended to maximize the first eigen-frequency of the armature part and the magnetic actuating force acting on the armature simultaneously. GA based optimal design was carried out to obtain the initial structure and the modified on/off sensitivity method was succeeded to accelerate the design process. Final results show tens of percent improvement in actuating force as well as the first eigen-frequency of the armature.

This study is concerned with the design of a camera iris-shutter device for producing force. The camera iris-shutter with yoke should have a smaller size and a bigger magnetic force than the previous model. Since the induced magnetic force operates shutter movement, the magnetic force maximization for a given input current is an important issue. To achieve the goal, new system is designed by the topology optimization method. The design is refined through the design of experiments to find the detail camera iris shutter design satisfying design constraints.

PURPOSE. Although magnetic attachment is used frequently for overdenture, it is reported that attractive force can be decreased by abrasion and corrosion. The purpose of this study was to establish the clinical basis about considerations and long term prognosis of overdenture using magnetic attachments by investigating the change in attractive force of magnetic attachment applied to the patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Among the patients treated with overdenture using magnetic attachments in Dankook University Dental Hospital, attractive force records of 61 magnetic attachments of 20 subjects who re-visited from July 2013 to June 2014 were analyzed. Dental magnet tester (Aichi Micro Intelligent Co., Aichi, Japan) was used for measurement. The magnetic attachments used in this study were Magfit IP-B Flat, Magfit DX400, Magfit DX600 and Magfit DX800 (Aichi Steel Co., Aichi, Japan) filled with Neodymium (NdFeB), a rare-earth magnet. RESULTS. Reduction ratio of attractive force had no significant correlation with conditional variables to which attachments were applied, and was higher when the maintenance period was longer (P<.05, r=.361). Reduction ratio of attractive force was significantly higher in the subject group in which attachments were used over 9 years than within 9 years (P<.05). Furthermore, 16.39% of total magnetic attachments showed detachment of keeper or assembly. CONCLUSION. Attractive force of magnetic attachment is maintained regardless of conditional variables and reduction ratio increased as the maintenance period became longer. Further study on adhesive material, attachment method and design improvement to prevent detachment of magnetic attachment is needed.

After finding the harmonic components by measuring the thrust force, which affects high accuracy position control during micro-step drive of LPM, the exciting current was calculated to remove them. Also the detent force being induced by magnetic flux density of permanent magnetic was measured. It was comfirmed that the tooth and slot width was designed properly thresh the analysis of detent force.

The present paper proposes a novel cableless magnetic actuator with a new propulsion module that exhibits a very high thrusting force. This actuator contains an electrical inverter that directly transforms DC from button batteries into AC. The electrical DC-AC inverter incorporates a mass-spring system, a reed switch, and a curved permanent magnet that switches under an electromagnetic force. The actuator is moved by the inertial force of the mass-spring system due to mechanical resonance energy. The experimental results show that the actuator is able to move upward at a speed of 33 mm/s when using 10 button batteries when pulling a 10 g load mass. This cableless magnetic actuator has several possible applications, including narrow-pipe inspection and maintenance.

The magnetic fluid polishing technique can polish the tool of complex shape, because the polishing method which polishes as compress the workpiece by the magnetism abrasives to arrange to the linear according to the line of magnetic force. Therefore, we producted the magnetic fluid polishing device in order that mirror like finishing processes the tool surface. In order to a polishing condition selection, polishing characteristic was estimated by polishing conditions which are magnetic flux density, polishing speed, grain size, magnetic fluid. The tool was polished to the selected polishing condition. The result to evaluate the polished tool's performance with the cutting force and tool wear, the polished tool's performance was improved compared with the tool not to polish.

The conventional method of magnetic abrasive polishing is not suitable for non-magnetic materials because such polishing is basically possible when magnetic force exists and the magnetic force in non-magnetic materials is very low. The installation of an electromagnet under the working area of a non-magnetic material, which is called second-generation magnetic abrasive polishing in this study, can enhance the magnetic force. Experimental evaluation and optimization of process parameters for polishing magnesium alloy steel was performed by adopting the design of experiments and the response surface method. The results indicated that the intensity of the magnetic force and spindle speed are significant parameters that affect the improvement of surface roughness. A prediction model for the surface roughness of the magnesium alloy steel is developed using the second-order response surface method.
