Abstract In this paper, a strategy to develop a compact transition of the spoof surface plasmon polariton (SSPP) transmission line (TL) is proposed. First, an equivalent distributed circuit model is employed for the theoretical analysis and optimization design of the SSPP unit. The mapping relation between the unit performance and the geometric parameters is deduced from the transmission matrix. The calculated results are compared with the numerical ones from the three-dimensional (3D) simulations for validation. Then, a compact transition (only 0.26λg) is built with only two matching units and a tapered strip through optimizations. The optimizations are implemented with the circuit simulations based on the equivalent model, which can remarkably save time in comparison with the 3D simulations. The transition principle is also explained by quantitatively extracting the dispersion properties and impedance characteristics. Finally, a prototype of the proposed SSPP TL is fabricated and measured for demonstration. The measured operating band (0-7.7 GHz) is almost up to the cut-off frequency (about 8 GHz), which remains the inherent broadband low-pass transmission characteristics. Meanwhile, the measured in-band return loss is almost higher than 10dB, which verifies the high-efficiency propagation. This work can pave the way for building up a new SSPP-based framework of microwave circuits.

This article presents a method for analysis of the low-power periodic Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) system, using field and circuit models. A three-dimensional numerical model of multi-segment charging system, with periodic boundary conditions and current sheet approximation was solved by using the finite element method (FEM) and discussed. An equivalent circuit model of periodic WPT system was proposed, and required lumped parameters were obtained, utilizing analytical formulae. Mathematical formulations were complemented by analysis of some geometrical variants, where transmitting and receiving coils with different sizes and numbers of turns were considered. The results indicated that the proposed circuit model was able to achieve similar accuracy as the numerical model. However, the complexity of model and analysis were significantly reduced.

Coordinate measuring machine (CMM) is a large-scale geometrical detecting instrument. It is of high accuracy, high efficiency simple operation and automation. So, it can ensure the product quality for modern mechanical manufacture industry, and is widely used in the industry such as aircraft, automobile, military and national defense. However, it does not meet gradually the requirement of modern industry because of its measuring accuracy. How to monitor geometrical error rapidly and high accurately is a key research project. To solve the problem, some studies have been carried out. In this paper, a coordinate measuring machine was firstly designed by modern design method. Three dimensional model is built using PRO/E software. And some key components were optimized by using finite element analysis method. The simulating results show that the size and structure of the designed coordinate measuring machines are optimized and improved relate to previous CMM. This study will play an important instructing role for us in studying a novel CMM.

Research on three-dimensional flow field in a tubular pumping system using numerical simulation based on the Reynolds time-averaged Navier-Stokes equations and the RNG k–ε turbulent model. By using this method, the performance of pumping system such as head, shaft power and efficiency are predicted based on the calculation of different operating conditions in the discharge range from 20L/s to 35L/s at the same rotating speed. For verifying the accuracy and reliability of the calculation results, a tubular pumping system bedstand is designed for the permarmance test. The comparison of simulation results and the experiment data shown that the calculation performances close agreement with the experiment results in the high efficiency area, but in the condition of large discharge and low discharge, deviations were existed between the two results. Combining with the results of numerical simulation and experiment, which can provide more evidences for the hydraulic performances prediction and optimization design of pumping system.

The resonance performance analysis of graphene antennas is a challenging problem for full-wave electromagnetic simulators due to the trade-off between the computer resource and the accuracy of results. In this paper, an equivalent circuit model is presented to provide a concise and fast way to analyze the graphene-based THz bowtie antenna. Based on the simulated results of the frequency responses of the antenna, a suitable equivalent circuit of Resistor-Inductor-Capacitor (RLC) series is proposed to describe the antenna. Then the RLC parameters are extracted by considering the graphene bowtie antenna as a one-port resonator. Parametric analyses, including chemical potential, arm length, relaxation time, and substrate thickness, are presented based on the proposed equivalent circuit model. Antenna input resistance R is a significant parameter in this model. Validation is performed by comparing the calculated R values with the ones from full-wave simulation. By applying different parameters to the graphene bowtie antenna, a set of R, L, and C values are obtained and analyzed comprehensively. A very good agreement is observed between the equivalent model and the numerical simulation. This work sheds light on the graphene-based bowtie antenna’s initial design and paves the way for future research and applications.
