This paper proposes a new MR(magneto-rheological) brake utilizing composite modes of MR fluid. Its basic structure and design scheme are almost the same with the conventional MR brake, but for slots in a rotating disk or shell. The slots enable the proposed MR brake to use a new mode, so-called, ‘direct cutting chain mode’as well as shear mode, which results in increasing the braking force(almost 150% compared to the case without slots). Some experimental results show that the proposed MR brake provide the sufficient braking force to be adopted for small portable force feedback devices.

In indoor radio systems, vehicular communication systems, and land mobile systems, a very important problem is that of maintaining stable communications at all locations. Therefore solutions for the indoor propagation problem are important aspects of the mobile communication system. leaky coxial cables are finding increasing use in communications systesm involving mines, tunnels, tailroads, and highways, and in new obstacle detection, or guided radar, schemes for ground transportation and perimenter surveilance. In this paper a leaky coaxial cable having periodic slots in the outer conductor is described to obtain the propagation modes in the various environments. We use aneccentric cylindrical model to develop the theory for surface-wave propagation on the cable. Numerical Results are also included for the propagation constants, field distribution and current distribution. First, we derive the electromagnetic equation for leaky coaxial cable having symmetrical periodic slots using mode-matching method and Floquet's theorem, and then find various modes, propagation constants, field distribution, etc.

The radiation characteristics of leaky wave emanated from finite strip-grating loaded dielectric coated coaxial waveguide with finite periodic thick slots are investigated theoretically. The rigorous integral equations are derived for the proposed structure using the courier transform, mode expansion, and sine series expansion of the electric current on metallic strips, and the simultaneous linear equations are obtained. The effects of finite strip-grating loading on a dielectric-coated coaxial waveguide with finite periodic thick slots are examined in terms of radiation characteristics.

In this paper, the waveguide slot array antenna which is capable of wide beam steering and dual polarization is designed for an X band synthetic aperture radar. In order to improve the restriction of beam steering range and to remove the butterfly lobes, a typical waveguide slot array antenna has been modified. To implement dual polarization, rod excited waveguide slot elements and ridge waveguide slot elements are alternately arranged. Location of slots, inclination of rod and offset distance of slots are determined on using array characteristic and conductance constant with radiating power on slots. The designed antenna is manufactured and measured with Near-filed measurement method.

This paper discusses stationkeeping of COMS which accommodates two optical payloads. In order to provide good quality images to the users, the east/west stationkeeping which is strong perturbing sources shall be performed outside of mandatory observation time slots asked by users. If the east/west stationkeeping time is resulted inside of the mandatory time slots, it shall be shifted in order to be performed outside of mandatory time slot, or a new stationkeeping shall be planned. This constraint is expected to ask additional fuel consumption in comparison with tradition stationkeeping. This paper analyzes the impact of mandatory time slots to the stationkeeping fuel consumption. Orbit simulations have been conducted to determine validity of given constraints in the light of fuel requirement and stationkeeping accuracy.

This paper presents the characteristic analysis method of PMLSM based on the Space Harmonic Analysis method considering the effect of stator slots. The magnetic field for unslotted primary can be easily calculated by the conventional space harmonic analysis method and the resultant magnetic field including slot effect is obtained using the concept of the virtual Equivalent Magnetizing Current(EMC) on primary core. And the influence of space harmonics in airgap flux density and static thrust due to slots is evaluated. In this paper, the results of the analytical method are compared with not only the experimental ones but ones of FEM to verify the validity of the proposed method.

This paper presents a CPW-fed antenna with three slots. The proposed antenna can operate at 1.9~2.1 GHz and 2.9~3.3 GHz which are generated by the two rectangular slots, and 4.5~11.6 GHz which is generated by the main patch. The semicircle-slot is used as a band-notched filter to stop at a desired band (5.150~5.825 GHz) limited by IEEE 802.11a or HIPERLAN/2 applications. The currents concentrate around corresponding slots at the desired band. The proposed antenna is very small in size, with overall dimensions of $27{\times}32{\times}1\;mm^3$ etched onto an FR4-printed circuit board (PCB).

Bum-in test is one for eliminating semiconductor devices that are subject to early failures and other operational problems; it is usually carried out on the devices by imposing severe test conditions such as elevated voltages, temperatures, and time. In order for such a test to be performed, each burn-in board having devices to be tested, needs to be inserted into a corresponding slot. A set of such slots is called a zone. The slots comprising a zone can only have the burn-in boards with the devices of the same type. In order to test many different types of semiconductor devices, it is desirable to build a burn-in test system to have as many zones as possible. A zone controller controlling a zone, is a device that performs a burn-in test and collects test results. In case of existing systems, each zone controller takes care of a zone that consists of a fixed number of slots. Since a zone controller is, in most cases, embedded into a workstation that controls the overall testing process, adding new zone controllers is restricted by the spaces for them. As a way to solve or alleviate these problems, a dynamic zone system in which the number of slots in a zone can be dynamically allocated, is presented. This system maximizes the efficiency of system utilization, by altering the number of slots and hence minimizing the idle slots of a zone. In addition, all the test operations being performed must be aborted for maintenance in existing systems. In dynamic zone systems, however, a separate and independent maintenance is allowed for each slot, as long as the main power supply system has no problem.

A new method of protecting 3-phase squirrel-cage induction motor aginst burning-out by unbalance operation is proposed. This paper studied various kinds of situations occurred by unbalance operating in 3-phase induction motor, and we provided the search coils in the slots of stator and rotor for the purpose of detecting electrical phenpmena during unbalance operation. Through experiments, we find that search coils in the slots of stator is effective method for protecting the induction motor from unbalance operating.
