Most electrical machines like motor, generator and transformer are symmetric in terms of magnetic field distribution and mechanical structure. In order to analyze these problems effectively, many coupling techniques have been introduced. This paper deals with a coupling scheme for open boundary problem of symmetric and periodic structure. It couples an analytical solution of Fourier series expansion with the standard finite element method. The analytical solution is derived for the magnetic field in the outside of the boundary, and the finite element method is for the magnetic field in the inside with source current and magnetic materials. The main advantage of the proposed method is that it retains sparsity and symmetry of system matrix like the standard FEM and it can also be easily applied to symmetric and periodic problems. Also, unknowns of finite elements at the boundary are coupled with Fourier series coefficients. The boundary conditions are used to derive a coupled system equation expressed in matrix form. The proposed algorithm is validated using a test model of a bush bar for the power supply. And the each result is compared with analytical solution respectively.

It proposes the novel design conditions to maximize the power coupling of active directional couplers with mismatched access guides. To verify the validity and accuracy of the conditions proposed, a new coupling efficiency is defined and it depends on the reflection coefficients occurred at the discontinuous input/output interfaces. The numerical results reveal that the phase-matched condition and the minimum-gap condition for those couplers are no longer suitable to optimize the design parameters and a new criterion is needed.

This paper describes a design of a miniature patch antenna and its 4-channle array for 5.25 GHz wireless LAN band. Each patch element is designed for the low mutual coupling between each element and for the small size of the array antenna. The size of the each element is $7 mm{\times}14.5 mm{\times}5.6 mm$ and it satisfy IEEE 802.11a frequency band. It is arrayed for independent 4-channel operation. The total size of the array antenna is $35.6 mm{\times}52.5 mm{\times}5.6 mm$. The measured reflection coefficients and the radiation patterns of the fabricated antennas show the reasonable agreements with prediction.

TM mode coupling coefficients for a generic five-layer DFB structure with trapezoidal and triangular gratings are calculated using the extended additional layer method. To determine the unperturbed field distributions of TM modes, a grating region is replaced by a new uniform layer whose inverse dielectric constant is the average value of the inverse dielectric constant of grating region in both longitudinal and transverse directions. Based on the self-consistent check, the validity of this method is established by comparing the results calculated by partitioning the grating region up to six uniform layers.

In this study, a computational method for wall shear stress combined with an implicit direct-forcing immersed boundary method is presented. Near the immersed boundaries, the sub-grid stress is determined by a wall model in which the wall shear stress is directly calculated from the Lagrangian force on the immersed boundary. A coupling mathematical model of the transition process for a model Francis turbine comprising turbulent flow and rotating rigid guide vanes is established. The spatiotemporal distributions of pressure, velocity, vorticity and turbulent quantity are gained with the transient process; the drag and lift coefficients as well as other forces (moments) are also obtained as functions of the attack angle. At the same time, analysis is conducted of the characteristics of pressure pulsation, velocity stripes and vortex structure at some key parts of flowing passage. The coupling relations among the turbulent flow, the dynamical force (moment) response of blade and the rotating of guide vane are also obtained.

평면 배열에서 원하는 빔패턴을 얻고자 할 때 각각의 소자들의 자체 방사특성 에 의해 다른 소자가 영향을 받게된다. 보통 이러한 영향은 빔패턴의 변화를 가져올 뿐만 아니라 소자의 성능을 저하시키게 된다. 이러한 간섭을 줄이기 위해서 배열 형태를 바꾸는 등의 구조적인 개선은 많이 시도되어 왔다 그러나 이러한 개선을 통하여 영향을 줄일 수는 있으나 보다 더 정확하게 원하는 사양의 빔을 설계하기 위해서는 최적화 기법을 통하여 이러한 영향을 보상해 주어 야 한다. 본 논문에서는 빔을 설계할 때 상호 간섭 영향을 포함시킨 빔설계 알고리듬을 소개한다. 이 알고리듬은 선형 최소자승법의 해를 기반으로 최적화를 수행하고 상호 간섭의 영향은 coupling coefficients matrix를 도입하였다. 이러한 방법으로 빔을 설계하게 되면 소자의 위치 등을 변화시키지 않으면서 원하는 사양의 빔을 설계 할 수 있게 된다.

Simple equivalent circuit model is developed for wireless energy transfer system via coupled magnetic resonances and practical design method is also provided. Node equations for the resonance system are built with the method expanding transformer's equations and the optimum distances of coils in the system is derived analytically for optimum coupling coefficients for high transfer efficiency. Moreover, to calculate the frequency characteristics for a lossy system the equivalent model is established at an electric design automation tool. The model parameters of the actual system are extracted and the results of modeling are compared with the measurement. Through the developed model, we can understand the principles that the system shows higher efficiency than conventional magnetic coupling systems and impedance matching is important to achieve high efficiency.

The characteristics of the PZT/PMM and PZT/Butadiene composites with 3 dimensional network structure have been investigated as a function of the PZT volume fraction. The dielectric constants of the PZT composites increased linearly as the PZT volume fraction increased. However, they are not significantly affected by the polymer compliance. The piezoelectric d33 coefficients of the PZT/Butadiene are largest than the PZT/PMM because of the high elastic compliance which promotes stress transfer. The values of the mechanical quality factor adn frequency factor of the PZT/PMM composite are slightly larger, while the planar coupling factor is smaller, than the PZT/Butadiene composite. These results are due to strong interaction and mechanical coupling between PZT and PMM.

This paper proposes the calculation method of magnetic coupling coefficient of the contact-less energy transmission system by 3D finite element method with a variation of the secondary core positions. The primary, secondary self and leakage inductances and the capacitances of a resonant circuit are calculated by the finite element analysis results. From these values, the magnetic coupling coefficients are obtained. The secondary voltages and currents at the secondary core positions are calculated by using the resonant circuit and compared.

In this paper, a compact S type resonator is presented, where the proposed resonator is surface micromachined over transmission lines or other resonators, in order to obtain a wide range of possible electromagnetic couplings. The structure has been applied in two compact, bandstop and bandpass filters with moderate fractional bandwidths (FBW) of 20% and 25% respectively. The bandstop filter presented, was designed by the combination of two design methods in order to obtain the proposed fractional bandwidth, where traditionally, coupled resonator bandstop filters have been used for narrow stopbands. The bandpass filter illustrates the use of the proposed suspended resonator structure to obtain a wide range of electric type coupling coefficients, and external quality factors for the filter. This paper describes the design methodology, concepts and fabrication method proposed for the design of these filters.
