  • For the system of a droplet on an insulator-coated electrode, the Lippmann-Young equation is derived by considering the deformation of interface near the three-phase contact line. The equation governing the deformation of interface, which describes the local balance of the Maxwell stress and the capillary pressure, is integrated along the interface. The integration leads to the Lippmann-Young equation which is shown to represent the macroscopic balance of horizontal force acting on entire meniscus. Young's angle is assumed to be not affected by the Maxwell stress. The meaning and validity of the assumption are discussed.

  • Electro-Active paper(EAPap) is a new smart material that has a potential to be used in biomimetic actuator and sensor. It is made by cellulose that is abundant material in nature. EAPap is fascinating with its biodegradability, lightweight, large displacement, high mechanical strength and low actuation voltage. Actuating mechanism of EAPap is known to be the combined effects of ion migration and piezoelectricity. However, the electromechanical actuation mechanisms are not yet to be established. This paper presents the modeling of the actuation behavior of water infused cellulose samples and their composite dielectric constants calculated by Maxwell-Wagner theory. Electro-mechanical forces were calculated using Maxwell stress tensor method. Bending deflection was evaluated from simple beam model and compared with experimental observation, and which result in good correlation with each other.

  • Displacement current measuring technique has been applied on the study of polyamic acid monolayer containing p-nitroazobenzene. The displacement current was generated from monolayer on the water surface by monolayer compression and expansion. Maxwell displacement current(MDC) was generated when the area per molecule was about $200{\AA}^2$ and $70{\AA}^2$. Maxwell displacement currents were investigated in connection with monolayer compression cycles. It was found that the maximum of MDC appeared at the molecular area just before the initial rise of surface pressure in compression cycles. The monolayer surface morphology of the LB film have been measured by Atomic Force Microscope(AFM). As a result, we confirmed that the microscopic properties of LB film by AFM showed the good orientation of monolayer molecules and the thickness of monolayer was 3.5-4.1nm.

  • This paper presents a finite element analysis of the electromechanical field in the spindle motor of a computer hard disk drive considering the speed control and mechanical flexibility. The driving circuit equation is modified by considering the switching action of PWM inverter, and is coupled with the Maxwell equation to obtain the nonlinear time-stepping finite element equation for the analysis of magnetic field. Magnetic force and torque are calculated by the Maxwell stress tensor. Mechanical motion of a rotor is determined by a time-stopping finite element method considering the flexibility of shaft, rotor and bearing. Both magnetic and mechanical finite element equations are combined in the closed loop to control the speed using PWM. Simulation results are verified by the experiments, and they are in food agreement with the experimental results.

  • In this paper we calculated and compared the arc driving force of two spiral-tyre vacuum interrupter electrode models which have 3petals and 4petals respectively by means of commercial finite element method software Maxwell 3D. As a result we can find that the more petals the electrode has, the stronger arc driving force was generated. This simulation method can contribute to optimization of spiral-type electrode designs in a view of arc driving force.

  • Bearingless motors are the rotational electric machine which utilize a common magnetic structure for rotation and magnetic suspension. Since the bearing function is combined with the motor, the shaft length can be shortened resulting in higher critical speeds. Relationship between suspension force and current of bearingless motor is clearly derived by prior research. However, relationship between displacement of rotor and suspension force is not precisely defined. In this paper, we present model of bearingless motor describing the radial force variation due to the movement of the rotor. Using a distributed magnetic circuit and maxwell stress tensor, we derived a mathematical expression for the radial force. For a slotless bearingless motor, we are able to find an analytical model presented in the form of stiffness. For a slotted motor, we can compute the stiffness by semi-analytical analysis. This model is validated by a finite-element-analysis.

  • This paper presents a dynamic force analysis of switched reluctance motor using 2D-transient finite element method. The main exciting of the vibration is the electiromagnetic force in the stator that is calculated Maxwell stress method. The advantage for elimation of vibration of 12/8 SRM was explained by comparing the radial force of 12/8 and 6/4 SRM in both time and frequency domain. In order to effective mitigate the vibration during turning off process, effects of different commutation method were investigated.

  • The object of this paper is to try to develope Tulular Liner Induction Motor which consists of primary stator that generates traveling magnetic field from the three-phase winding of formed-wound concentric coil, and try to identify the characteristics of starting force. To indentify the theoretical starting force formular we have quoted the conventional Maxwell's basic equation and Poisson's equation which are used in the general machines thereby having obtained the formular of the current with in the conductor and of the air gap magnetic field respectively. General starting force formular is acquired by applying the formular of the current and magnetic field which was theoretically derived above. To this theoretically starting force formula various constants and the values of magnetic flux density resulting from the experimental motor are applied to present theoretically calculated values. Comparing these theoretically caculated values experimentally weighed values, we have proved the validity of theoretical research.

  • There have been few papers using finite element method(FEM) to analyze arc driving force for spiral type vacuum interrupter electrode up to date while there have been many papers dealing with AMF type electrode by means of FEM. AMF analysis is very important in AMF type electrode because it has proportional relation with effective area which means the area of magnetic flux density above critical magnetic flux density to diffuse arc. In the same manner, arc driving force is an important factor to drive arc by Lorentz force. In this paper two models were calculated and compared by using commercial FEM software Maxwell 3D.

  • Magnetic couplings are widely used in various industrial applications because they can transmit magnetic force without any mechanical contact. In addition, linear couplings have many advantages. For example, they do not need to convert rotary motion to linear motion. This paper shows an analytical analysis of tubular type linear magnetic couplings (TLMCs) with a Halbach array magnetized permanent magnet (PM). An analytical method for magnetic fields owing to PMs is performed by using magnetic vector potential as well as Poisson and Laplace equations. Then, the magnetic force is calculated by using the Maxwell stress tensor. The analytical analysis results were compared with finite element method (FEM) results. In addition, we predicted the magnetic force characteristic according to design parameters such as the iron core thickness, inner PM thickness to -outer PM thickness ratio, PM segment ratio of the axial magnetized PM segment and radial magnetized PM segment, and various pole numbers.
