The present paper introduced a framework for multi-level coupling transient electromagnetic fields (EMF) and mechanical structural dynamics based on the finite element method (FEM). This framework was dedicated to predicting, with better accuracy, the wave magnetic force density for obtaining the mechanical deformation occurring in electromagnetic actuators (EMAs). The first-level EMF transient model coupling is related to the magnetic field equations that are strongly coupled with the electric circuit input voltage equations. This is done by considering the magnetic saturation through the Newton–Raphson (N–R) method. The time-stepping solution of the EMF model resulted in the magnetic force densities being computed from the Lorentz force (LZ) expressions, based on the space–time variation of the induced eddy current. For the second coupling level, the EMF model was sequentially coupled with the mechanical structural deformation equations (MDef) through the local magnetic force density to achieve minimal material dynamic displacement and deformation. The developed multi-physics EMF–MDef time-stepping (FEM) model tools were implemented using the Matlab software.

We carry out the effect of the induced magnetic field on peristaltic transport of an incompressible conducting micropolar fluid in a symmetric channel. The flow analysis has been developed for low Reynolds number and long wavelength approximation. Exact solutions have been established for the axial velocity, microrotation component, stream function, magnetic-force function, axial-induced magnetic field, and current distribution across the channel. Expressions for the shear stresses are also obtained. The effects of pertinent parameters on the pressure rise per wavelength are investigated by means of numerical integrations, also we study the effect of these parameters on the axial pressure gradient, axial-induced magnetic field, as well as current distribution across the channel and the nonsymmetric shear stresses. The phenomena of trapping and magnetic-force lines are further discussed.

Voice Coil Actuator

The multi-degree-of-freedom high-precision positioning system (MHPS) is one of the key technologies in many advanced industrial applications. In this paper, a novel hyperbolic magnetic field voice coil actuator using a rhombus magnet array (HMF-VCA) for MHPS is proposed. Benefiting from the especially designed rhombus magnet array, the proposed HMF-VCA has the advantage of excellent force uniformity, which makes it suitable for multi-degree-of-freedom high-precision positioning applications. First, the basic structure and operation principles of the HMF-VCA are presented. Second, the six-degree-of-freedom force and torque characteristic of the HMF-VCA is studied by three-dimensional finite element analysis (3-D FEA). Third, the influence of structural parameters on force density and force uniformity is investigated, which is conducive to the design and optimization of the HMF-VCA. Finally, a prototype is constructed, and the comparison between the HMF-VCA and conventional VCAs proves the advantage of the proposed topology.

Magnetic Modeling

Precision machining fields require the worktable to have a large-scale multi-degree-of-freedom motion capability. In order to provide a more accurate magnetic model for the control strategy decoupling process and the size parameter optimization design process of the maglev rotary table. This paper proposes a new magnetic modeling method based on the Two-Dimensional Harmonic method. Different from the existing harmonic method, this method simultaneously considers the tangential and radial magnetic field changes of circumferential magnetic array. And it eliminates the edge effect of the magnetic flux density distribution in the radial aperiodic direction. The magnetic force and torque are solved by the Lorenz integral formula and the Gaussian quadrature method. In order to verify the accuracy of the TDH method, the boundary element software RadiaTM is used for simulation, and a prototype is made for measurement. The experimental results shown that this method reduced the maximum error of the radial edge magnetic field from 104.19% to 3.29%. And it improved the calculation accuracy of magnetic force and torque by 60.74% and 84.39% respectively. This method does not rely on special example, and is beneficial to cross-platform applications. It is more suitable for realizing the magnetic modeling of the maglev rotary table with both rotational motion and large-stroke translational motion.

<p>Geologic data to provide information on the functioning of aquifers is often scars. For the aquifers underlying the Heretaunga Plains, Hawkes Bay, one of New Zealand’s most important groundwater systems, we used groundwater age (tritium, SF6, 14C) to inform the geologic model and to provide information on groundwater flow through alternating strata of permeable river gravel beds and fine impermeable beds that form an interconnected unconfined–confined aquifer system with complex groundwater flow processes.</p><p>The aquifers are a result of geological processes responding to climate change cycles from cold glacial when sea level was more than 100m below present sea level, to warm interglacial periods with sea level similar to present day. Glacial climate strata are river gravel, sand and silt deposits and include the artesian aquifers. The interglacial strata form the aquicludes and are marine sand, silt, and clay deposits with interbedded estuarine, swamp and coastal fluvial silt, clay, peat and gravel deposits.</p><p>We have re-visited tracer data sampled during the drilling of multi-level observation well in the early 1990s, and collected new samples from these multi-level bores in order to understand in 3D the groundwater recharge sources, groundwater recharge and flow rates, connection to the rivers, and potential groundwater discharge out to sea. Consistently young water (c. 25 years) at depth greater than 100m indicates preferential flow paths, likely related to paleo-river channels. The flow pattern obtained from the water tracer data improves the geologic information from the drill-holes, and fits with information from recent airborne transient electromagnetic (SkyTEM) geophysical surveys.</p>

Abstract —A mathematical model of the influence of the Earth’s magnetic field (the Hall effect) on results of the controlled source transient electromagnetic (TEM) method has been elaborated. For identification of this effect, we propose a schematic layout of the experimental grounded system with a pulsed loop source and signals recording by radial receive lines equally spaced relative to the loop. The 2018–2019 special field experiments were conducted in the Tatar region of the West Siberian Lowland with an aim to estimate the Hall effect contributions to the TEM method. To detect the Hall effect, transient electromagnetic responses were measured mainly by four receive lines radiating from a 500×500 m square loop. Analysis of the TEM results processing aimed at improving the signal quality and reducing the interference revealed a great similarity in signals from the radial lines, which is theoretically possible only under the Hall effect. Comparison of the field signals with the theoretical ones enabled estimation of the components caused by the Hall effect, in particular, conductivity at ~0.002 S/m.

This paper presents a comprehensive analysis on the transient electromagnetic force behavior of the stator windings in a QFSN-600-2YHG type turbo-generator. Different from other studies, this paper investigates not only the distribution regularities of the resultant force and the force density, but also the force harmonic characteristics, and the mechanical responses which will cause sensitive impact on the insulation wearing. The whole work is generally based on a proposed simplified model and the 3D finite element coupling calculation. The simplified model contains two parts. The first part is the theoretical model that employs the approximate solution of the image current to obtain the analytic formula of the electromagnetic force on the end windings conveniently. The second part is the FEA model that employs only the end windings and one-tenth of the stator core to save the calculating memory and, meanwhile, obtain the qualified electromagnetic force as well as the mechanical response. It is shown that the nose-top, the connection point between the line part and the end part, and the middle of the involute are the three most dangerous positions of the end winding to sustain serious insulation wearing. Moreover, the winding, which endures the maximum mechanical response, is neither always consistent with the one that has the largest resultant electromagnetic force nor directly in accordance with the winding that affords the most intensive electromagnetic force density. The findings in this paper will be beneficial for the insulation monitoring and the manufacturing improvement on the stator windings.

Until a year ago it was generally accepted that if a body is made supraconducting while in a magnetic field the lines of magnetic force were "frozen in," i. e ., whatever lines of force passed through the body at the time when it became supraconducting remained there afterwards, unaffected by any change in the external field, so long as the body was supraconducting. Meissner and Ochsenfeld, however, showed that this supposition was not true. They measured field strengths in the immediate neighbourhood of cylinders which had been cooled to supraconductivity in an external magnetic field, and found that the field of force was then of the same nature as that to be expected in the neighbourhood of perfectly diamagnetic bodies. Thus it appeared that when a body becomes supraconducting in a magnetic field the lines of force are all pressed out of the body, and the induction inside the body falls to zero. At the same time, however, these authors report on another experiment, the result of which appears to us not entirely in accordance with the assumption that the induction in the whole body became zero. They measured the field strengths inside and outside a hollow cylinder, after it had become supraconducting in a field perpendicular to its axis, and found again that the field strength outside was as if the cylinder were almost perfectly diamagnetic, but the field inside was appreciably the same as if the cylinder were non-supraconducting. We therefore made a number of experiments, hoping to find out more exactly the nature of the phenomenon.
