A current theme in the study of the critical current density behavior of YBa2Cu3O7-δ (YBCO) grain boundaries is that their electromagnetic properties are heterogeneous on various length scales ranging from 10s of microns to ˜ 1 Å. Recently, combined electromagnetic and TEM studies on four flux-grown bicrystals have demonstrated a direct correlation between the length scale of the boundaries’ saw-tooth facet configurations and the apparent length scale of the electrical heterogeneity. In that work, enhanced critical current densities are observed at applied fields where the facet period is commensurate with the spacing of the Abrikosov flux vortices which must be pinned if higher critical current density values are recorded. To understand the microstructural origin of the flux pinning, the grain boundary topography and grain boundary dislocation (GBD) network structure of [001] tilt YBCO bicrystals were studied by TEM and HRTEM.

Background: Advancement in wireless communication technology has raised today’s living standards but consequently leads to the problems of electromagnetic (EM) air pollution as well as spectrum congestion particularly in radio frequency band. To overcome traffic congestion problem in lower bands, terahertz frequency bands are explored but EM pollution still persists as global issue which can be addressed by a tunable microwave absorber. At THz frequencies, 2-D nanostructured graphene has been observed to be less lossy than using other materials and further finds its most interesting applications on account of the plasmonic mode supported by graphene resulting in extreme device miniaturization. At micro and mm-waves graphene is resistive hence can be electronically controlled, ensuring its suitability for the design of tunable microwave absorber. Objective: Designing of a frequency reconfigurable or frequency tunable absorber is the prime objective of current work. Two-dimensional graphene absorber has been proposed here having inherent bandgap tunability property which means the electromagnetic properties of graphene can be controlled via varying external bias potential. Methods: The numerical modelling of graphene microwave absorber utilizing bulk graphene backed by glass and perfect electric conductor layer is reported in this paper. Finite element Method (FEM) based high frequency structure simulator (HFSS) platform is used to simulate the graphene absorber model. The whole structure is placed into a rectangular waveguide with two ports for absorber excitation. Results: The variation of electromagnetic properties of graphene absorber is achieved by changing bias potential and further the absorption tunability for the designed absorber is investigated in the range from 2 GHz to 18 GHz. From reflection coefficient curves, it is authenticated that -72.6 dB reflection coefficient dip has been obtained at 14 GHz for 5 volt bias potential which shifts to higher side of frequency as the potential changes from 5 volts to 25 volts. Conclusion: The results show that by increasing bias potential, absorption coefficient shifts to higher frequency and proves to be a tunable wideband absorber whose resonant frequency can changed from one value to another without changing thickness or material properties of absorber thus can effectively incorporate with antenna substrate or surface of radar.

This paper presents current research trends and prospects of utilizing additive manufacturing (AM) techniques to manufacture electrical machines. Modern-day machine applications require extraordinary performance parameters such as high power-density, integrated functionalities, improved thermal, mechanical & electromagnetic properties. AM offers a higher degree of design flexibility to achieve these performance parameters, which is impossible to realize through conventional manufacturing techniques. AM has a lot to offer in every aspect of machine fabrication, such that from size/weight reduction to the realization of complex geometric designs. However, some practical limitations of existing AM techniques restrict their utilization in large scale production industry. The introduction of three-dimensional asymmetry in machine design is an aspect that can be exploited most with the prevalent level of research in AM. In order to take one step further towards the enablement of large-scale production of AM-built electrical machines, this paper also discusses some machine types which can best utilize existing developments in the field of AM.

AbstractWith the rapid development of electronics and information technology, electronics and electrical equipment have been widely used in our daily lives. The living environment is full of electromagnetic waves of various frequencies and energy. Electromagnetic wave radiation has evolved into a new type of environmental pollution that has been listed by the WHO (World Health Organization) as the fourth largest source of environmental pollution after water, atmosphere, and noise. Studies have shown that when electromagnetic wave radiation is too much, it can cause neurological disorders. And electromagnetic interference will cause the abnormal operation of medical equipment, precision instruments and other equipment, and therefore cause incalculable consequences. Therefore, electromagnetic protection has become a hot issue of concern to the social and scientific circles.
