The evaluation and comparison have been made for the EMI noise which was included in the signal from the sensors in the acoustic emission testing for the bottom plate of ground tank at full. The EMI signal has been classified into two types. One is the signal with very short AE count, and this signal possibly can be filtered by front end filter setting of the channel count with low level of 4 and high level of $10^8$. The other EMI signal occurred from CH 1, CH 3 and CH 10, and had high and constant duration with high energy and count (maximun duration > $10^5\;{\mu}s$), and has characteristic gradient of accumulation amplitude distribution. This signal should be removed in the AE signal evaluation by filtering, because this may affect to the total gradient.

A digital signal processor(DSP) is applied to realizing a compensator of control system of active magnetic bearings, to restrict a resonance caused by the first-order bending vibration of a flexible rotor, and to run the rotor beyond the critical speed. A full-order observer is applied to the translatory rotor-motion with the first-order vibration mode. A PID control is used for the conical motion. The rotor used in the experiments is symmetric, and an electromagnet and a displacement sensor are set in collocation.

Spin injection and detection in lateral spin valves with double nonmagnetic bottom electrodes are investigated theoretically. Spin-polarized current injected from a magnetic electrode is split to two bottom electrodes, and nonlocal spin signals between the other magnetic electrode and the nonmagnetic electrodes are calculated from drift-diffusion equations. It is shown that the spin signal is approximately proportional to the associated current in the electrode.

SQUID sensor-based ultra low-field magnetic resonance apparatus with ${\mu}T$-level measurement field requires a strong prepolarization magnetic field ($B_p$) to magnetize its sample and obtain magnetic resonance signal with a high signal-to-noise ratio. This $B_p$ needs to be ramped down very quickly so that it does not interfere with signal acquisition which must take place before the sample magnetization relaxes off. A MOSFET switch-based $B_p$ coil driver has current ramp-down time ($t_{rd}$) that increases with $B_p$ current, which makes it unsuitable for driving high-field $B_p$ coil made of superconducting material. An energy cycling-type current driver has been developed for such a coil. This driver contains a storage capacitor inside a switch in IGBT-diode bridge configuration, which can manipulate how the capacitor is connected between the $B_p$ coil and its current source. The implemented circuit with 1.2 kV-tolerant devices was capable of driving 32 A current into a thick copper-wire solenoid $B_p$ coil with a 182 mm inner diameter, 0.23 H inductance, and 5.4 mT/A magnetic field-to-current ratio. The measured trd was 7.6 ms with a 160 ${\mu}F$ storage capacitor. trd was dependent only on the inductance of the coil and the capacitance of the driver capacitor. This driver is scalable to significantly higher current of superconducting $B_p$ coils without the $t_{rd}$ becoming unacceptably long with higher $B_p$ current.

Although magnetic resonance imaging without linear hardening of CT is recognized as a method of obtaining high contrast of tissue and excellent resolution image in brain disease and head and neck examination, magnetic susceptibility artifact is generated in case of metal implants in the oral cavity, which is an obstacle to image diagnosis. Therefore, an effort was made in this thesis to find a method to reduce artifacts caused by dental implants and prosthesis in MRI. Implant-induced artifacts in magnetic resonance imaging showed that the signal size increased with shorter TE in GE technique and was inconsistent with water temperature change. In SE technique as well, the signal size of water was generally higher than that of air, but the signal to noise ratio (SNR) was not different by air and temperature. In EPI technique, images with fewer artifacts were obtained quantitatively and qualitatively when there was more water than air, and the signal to noise ratio was measured the highest, especially at water temperatures of 20° and 30°. In conclusion, when examining using the EPI technique rather than the SE or the GE technique, obtaining brain diffusion using a 20° and 30° water bag reduces the magnetic susceptibility artifacts caused by implants and prosthesis, suggesting that it may provide images with high diagnostic value.

Objectives : The evaluation of peripheral nerve injuries has traditionally relied on a clinical history, physical examination, and electrodiagnostic studies. The purpose of the present study was to examine serial magnetic resonance image(MRI) changes following acute muscle denervation under experimental conditions and to identify potential advantages and disadvantages of this use of MRI. Methods : An experimental transection of right sciatic nerve on Spargue-Dawley rats was performed. MRI was performed with T1-weighted spin-echo and STIR sequences. The imaging findings were compared with EMG in order to determine its sensitivity relative to this standard procedure. A simultaneous histopathological study provided information about the morphological basis of the imaging findings. Signal intensities were expressed as a ratio of abnormal to normal. Results : The signal intensity ratio of muscles with the STIR sequence was increased significantly at 2 weeks after sciatic nerve transection(p<0.05), although definite signal change was seen as early as 4 days postdenervation in one. EMG revealed significant denervation potential from 3 days after nerve transection. Diffuse cell atrophy was revealed hostologically at 2 weeks after transection, which was at the same time of significant signal change in MRI. Conclusion : MRI signal changes in denervated muscles secondary to nerve injury correlate with the degree of muscle atrophy on histologic examination. In addition to EMG, MRI can document the course of muscle atrophy and mesenchymal abnormalities in denervation. These results indicate that MRI can play a complementary role in the evaluation of patients with denervation.

Interest is growing in the design and development of square wave driven BLDC permanent magnet motors suitable for industrial automation, and the development of position detection circuits and drivers. However, this motor is somewhat limited in its application despite the price and functional advantages due to the decrease in efficiency due to switching loss and vibration and noise. In the process of designing and assembling a BLDC motor, the magnetic pole angle is not uniform or the magnetic flux distribution is distorted due to problems in magnetic circuit design or product non-uniformity in the assembly process. Therefore, these things cause position detection deviation and deteriorate the motor characteristics. In addition, the sine wave driven BLDC system can operate stably only when the signal generated from the position sensor is accurately fed back to the driver. However, since the generated signal cannot perform stable position detection due to the occurrence of DC offset component due to magnetic flux density deviation or magnetization technology, which is an external influence, this study intends to study the proposed circuit that can remove the DC offset component.

This paper presents the development of a collocated capacitance sensor and its application to the decentralized PID controller design for 4-axis magnetic bearing system. The main feature of the sensor is that it is made of a compact printed circuit board (PCB) so that it can be built in to the actuator coil of the magnetic bearing unit. The signal processing unit has been also developed. Then, decentralized PED controller is designed using simplified rotor system model. Finally, the experimental results on the performance of the collocated sensor based decentralized PID controller for a magnetic bearing rotor system is presented.
