AbstractA low-cost, compact, and high gain Fabry–Perot cavity (FPC) antenna which operates at 300 GHz is presented. The antenna is fabricated using laser-cutting brass technology. The proposed antenna consists of seven metallic layers; a ground layer, an integrated stepped horn element (three-layers), a coupling layer, a cavity layer, and an aperture-frequency selective surface (FSS) layer. The proposed aperture-FSS function acts as a partially reflective surface, contributing to a directive beam radiation. For verification, the proposed sub-terahertz (THz) FPC antenna prototype was developed, fabricated, and measured. The proposed antenna has a measured reflection coefficient below − 10 dB from 282 to 304 GHz with a bandwidth of 22 GHz. The maximum measured gain observed is 17.7 dBi at 289 GHz, and the gain is higher than 14.4 dBi from 285 to 310 GHz. The measured radiation pattern shows a highly directive pattern with a cross-polarization level below − 25 dB over the whole band in all cut planes, which confirms with the simulation results. The proposed antenna has a compact size, low fabrication cost, high gain, and wide operating bandwidth. The total height of the antenna is 1.24 $${\lambda }_{0}$$ λ 0 ($${\lambda }_{0}$$ λ 0 at the design frequency, 300 GHz) , with a size of 2.6 mm × 2.6 mm. The proposed sub-THz waveguide-fed FPC antenna is suitable for 6G wireless communication systems.

In this paper, a compact reconfigurable tri-band/quad-band monopole antenna is presented. To achieve the multi-band behavior, two right-angled triangles were etched in a conventional rectangular patch, and a partial ground plane is used. Moreover, the proposed multi-band antenna is printed on a low cost FR4 epoxy with compact dimensions of 0.23[Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is calculated at the lowest resonance frequency. To provide frequency agility, a metal strip which acts as PIN diode was embedded in the frame of the modified patch. The tri-band/quad-band antenna performance in terms of reflection coefficient, radiation patterns, peak gain and efficiency was studied. The measured results are consistent with the simulated results for both cases. The simple structure and the compact size of the proposed antenna could make it a good candidate for multi-band wireless applications.

The response control techniques are mainly divided into two categories. One is a storey installation damper type using a damping element such as oil, elasto-plastic, viscoelastic, and so on. The other is an additional mass damper type such as a active and passive type tuned mass damper including a hybrid type. The device configuration of later damper type becomes larger into high-rise structure and long natural period structure because of increase of additional mass in the same case of mass ratio and necessary design stroke of moving mass. In generally, however, it is desired to be a compact size with a same vibration attenuation performance because of that there is a limitation of installation space for the device, and also it is important to be realize the application of the damper with low cost and with a necessary specification for damper performance. This study has been conducted to develop the passive tuned mass damper system using coil spring for long period structure considering a design indexes such as compact size, low cost and robustness. Although a coil spring has been well used by the tuned mass damper system as one way of solving a cost problem and performance stability, the problem of compact size still remains in case of the application to a long period structure. Multistage type is therefore proposed to the system in this time. Furthermore, the distributed TMD theory is applied to the system for robustness of the system. This paper summarizes from a basic theory to the application of proposed device to the real scale long period structure.

This paper proposes a novel miniaturization technique to enhance the radiation properties of small multi-layer patch antenna used in packaged circuits. The multilayered antenna design is composed of three layers with different shapes. An enhancement on the radiation properties has been obtained by optimizing the geometry of the radiated element and the parasitic conductor of the middle layer. The whole design has been implemented on the FR4 substrate with dielectric constant of 4.4, thickness of 1.6 mm and Copper thickness of 5 μm. The first layer is a driven element while second and the third layer are parasitic patch elements. The optimized multilayer antenna has a very small size of 12×6×5 mm^3. Considering the small size of the antenna, a detailed study of the parameter affecting the radiation has been considered to force the antenna to operate at 2.4 GHz band. Miniaturization techniques based on the current distribution have been also taken into account to shift down the resonant frequency and reduces more and more the antenna size at the designed operating frequency. The miniaturized antenna maintains performant radiation characteristics in terms of reflexion coefficient, bandwidth and directivity. All developed antennas are simulated using the commercial Electromagnetic CST Microwave Studio software. Achieved results demonstrate a good performance with low cost and compact size.

Post flow model was used in the present study as an insert model for the interactiveflow study innovative device namely called ePIV. The separation of the flow and itssubsequent reattachment to a solid surface occurs in many systems, and is of practical aswell as of theoretical interest. Three different values for the upstream velocity were selectedin the present work within the range (14, 24, and 32 mm\s) and two set of figures wereobserved for every value of upstream velocity. First set for velocity vector plots and shadedcolor plot while the second is for picture frames captured for the purpose of ePIV systemsoftware. It was found that ePIV system can be used in diverse educational settings becauseof its effectiveness as an educational tool, high-tech appeal, compact size, low cost andsafety. Also, It was concluded that the sudden appearance for the post height result in avortex spot that lead to an adverse pressure gradient concentrate the majority of high bulkvelocity magnitude at the upper half of the post flow model height.
