Rather than causing damage from heat, blast, and radiation of a regular nuclear weapon, recently, it is predicted that North Korea has been inventing high altitude electromagnetic pulse (HEMP) missile in order to incapacitate electronic equipment. HEMP shielding facility is used for military purpose today. Despite the electromagnetic shielding effects from high quality compression plates, problems may include such as the possibility of electromagnetic influx resulting in the welding of the compression plates, and difficulties and high cost of construction. Therefore, in this study, a high electrical conducting material was added to the concrete experimental subject to ensure the shielding effect through electromagnetic waves to for the concrete structure, instead of building a shielding facility separately for the structure. Also, among the experimental subjects, 100 ${\mu}m$ of Iron-Aluminum alloy metal spraying coat was applied to two types with the highest shielding effect, and to two types with the lowest shielding effect. The result of the experiment indicates that experimental subjects added with a high electrical conductivity material did not meet the minimum shielding criteria of MIL-STD-118-125-1 standard, but all the experimental material applied to the metal spraying coating satisfied the minimum shielding criteria. In conclusion, it is considered that 100 µm of Iron-Aluminum alloy metal spraying coat contains high efficiency in the HEMP shielding.

When a metal sprayed film of several hundred ㎛ on the concrete surface is possible to 80 dB of shielding effect electromagnetic waves (ElectroMagnetic Pulse, EMP). Therefore, in this study, as a way to secure EMP shielding performance by applying a metal spray coating showing excellent EMP shielding performance to a concrete structure, the metal spray welding efficiency and thin film adhesion performance according to the concrete spray direction and surface treatment method were evaluated. Metal sprayed efficieny according to the metal spraying direction and method was confirmed that the difference was insignificant by applying the roughening agent. However, the method of strengthening the concrete surface and applying the sealing agent show maximum adhesion strength of 3.98 MPa compared to other methods, and it is judged that this method can be utilized for the metal spraying method for concrete EMP shielding.

In this study, a novel magnetic field generator, using a shielding effect for controlling the dynamic stiffness and damping of magnetorheological gels, is proposed. A magnetorheological gel is a smart material that can alter its stiffness and damping, and it can be used as a vibration absorber and in vehicle suspension. It is necessary to control the magnetic field to use magnetorheological gels in various applications. There are two types of magnet field generators, namely the electromagnet and permanent magnet, and the electromagnet is generally used in practical applications. However, owing to its limitations, the electromagnet is not suitable for long-term use. Therefore, in this paper, a novel magnetic field generator is proposed to address such problems for use in real applications.

We studied on effective quench protection method to prevent damage from unexpected quench of superconducting magnet for magnetic resonance imaging. And we suggested quench protection circuit that is combined with several protection techniques. This circuit has the capacity to maintain the symmetric nature of the magnetic field and the active shielding effect and to protect shim coils during a quench.

Heart consists of myocardium cells and the electrophysiological activity of the cells generate magnetic fields. By measuring this magnetic field, magnetocardiogram (MCG), functional diagnosis of the heart diseases is possible. Since the strength of the MCG signals is weak, typically in the range of 1-10 pT, we need sensitive magnetic sensors. Conventionally, superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUID)s were used for the detection of MCG signals due to its superior sensitivity to other magnetic sensors. However, drawback of the SQUID is the need for regular refill of a cryogenic liquid, typically liquid helium for cooling low-temperature SQUIDs. Efforts to eliminate the need for the refill in the SQUID system have been done by using cryocooler-based conduction cooling or use of non-cryogenic sensors, or room-temperature sensors. Each sensor has advantage and disadvantage, in terms of magnetic field sensitivity and complexity of the system, and we review the recent trend of MCG technology.

A rotating magnetic field (RMF) ${\Phi}_1-{\Phi}_2$ model was developed in consideration of the skin effect. The rotating magnetic field's induced three-dimensional flow was simulated numerically, and the influence of the skin effect was investigated. The rotating magnetic field drives the rotating convection in the azimuthal direction, and a secondary convection appears in the radial-meridional direction. The results indicate that ignoring the skin effect results in a smaller azimuthal velocity component and larger radial and axial velocity components, and that the deviation becomes more obvious with the larger dimensionless shielding parameter K.

Turbomolecular pump (TMP) is widely used to obtain and maintain high vacuum by spinning turbine rotors to migrate gas molecules to the exhaust of the pump. However, performance of the TMP has not been well observed when it is influenced by strong magnetic field. Such study may give useful information about magnetic field tolerance of TMP, development of magnetic shielding technique for key components of TMP, etc. For this purpose, magnetic field induced by a circular current source was firstly designed and investigated. Using spherical coordinates and vector potential, magnetic field throughout the space including axis of rotation was calculated. Due to the rotational symmetry of the circular current source, induced magnetic field is azimuthally symmetric and, thus, is analyzed by radial and polar components of the magnetic fields. In order to enhance the numerical accuracy for the calculation, magnetic field was expressed by complete elliptic integrals of first and second kinds. According to the calculation, when 1 A of DC-current passes through a 1 turned circular wire with 50 cm of diameter, overall magnitude of the inducedmagnetic field was about 0.02 Gauss, which was used to the determination of the current and the number of turns of wires to fabricate the coil for the study on the magnetic field tolerance of TMP.
