In the present study, the inertial electromagnetic actuator (IEA) and the FxLMS (filtered-x least mean square) method were applied to study vibration control using the active mount. IEA was designed and manufactured for the experiment, and FxLMS algorithm was developed to evaluate control performance and mount dynamic characteristics. For the vibration control experiment, active mounts were installed at the top and bottom, and the lower active mount controls the force transmitted to the structure by the excitation signal from the upper active mount. The experiment was performed by simultaneously exciting three frequencies in three axes. From the experimental results, it was confirmed that the force measured at the lower active mount when the actuator is off is greatly reduced when the actuator is on, and that vibration reduction in the vertical z-axis is more effective than vibration reduction in the x-y plane.

The arrival of the 5G era has made electromagnetic pollution a problem that needs to be addressed, and flexible carbon-based materials have become a good choice. In this study, wet continuous papermaking technology was used to prepare carbon fiber paper (CFP) with a three-dimensional conductive skeleton network; Molybdenum disulfide ( MOS2)/ iron (Fe) @ carbon fiber paper-based shielding material was prepared by impregnating and blending molybdenum disulfide/iron ( MOS2/Fe) phenolic resin MOS2/ Fe@ CFP. The morphology, structure, electrical conductivity, mechanical properties, hydrophobicity, and electromagnetic shielding properties of the composite were characterized. The results show that the three-dimensional network structure based on a short carbon fiber paper-based conductive skeleton and the synergistic effect of the MOS2 dielectric wave absorbing agent and Fe magnetic wave absorbing agent have good electromagnetic shielding performance. Conduct electromagnetic shielding simulation using HFSS software to provide options for the structural design of CFP. The electromagnetic shielding performance of CFP reaches 70 dB, and the tensile strength reaches 34.39 MPa. Based on the mechanical properties, the compactness of carbon fiber paper is ensured. The lightning damage model test using CST software expands the direction for the use of carbon fiber paper. In summary, MOS2/ Fe @CFP with excellent shielding performance has great application prospects in thinner and lighter shielding materials, as well as high sensitivity, defense and military equipment.

Recent advancements in electronic devices and wireless communication technologies, particularly the rise of 5G, have raised concerns about the escalating electromagnetic pollution and its potential adverse impacts on human health and electronics. As a result, the demand for effective electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials has grown significantly. Traditional materials face limitations in providing optimal solutions owing to inadequacy and low performance due to small thickness. MXene-based composite materials have emerged as promising candidates in this context owing to their exceptional electrical properties, high conductivity, and superior EMI shielding efficiency across a broad frequency range. This review examines the recent developments and advantages of MXene-based composite materials in EMI shielding applications, emphasizing their potential to address the challenges posed by electromagnetic pollution and to foster advancements in modern electronics systems and vital technologies.

Metals are recognized as electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials owing to their high electrical conductivity. However, the need for light and flexible EMI shielding materials has emerged, owing to the heavyweight and inflexible nature of metals. Carbon nanotube (CNT)/polymer composites have been studied as promising flexible EMI shielding materials because of their lightweight nature due to the low density of CNTs and their high electrical conductivity. CNTs evenly dispersed in the polymer form an electrically conductive network, and the aspect ratio of the CNTs, which are one-dimensional nanofillers, is an important factor affecting electrical conductivity. In this study, we prepared three types of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) with different aspect ratios and fabricated polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)/MWNT composites. Subsequently, the electrical conductivities and electrical percolation thresholds of the three PDMS/MWNT composites with different MWNT aspect ratios were measured to analyze the behavior of electrically conducting network formation according to the aspect ratio. Furthermore, the total EMI shielding effectiveness of each composite was determined to evaluate the effect of the MWNT aspect ratio on the EMI shielding. Reflection and absorption of electromagnetic wave were measured for the PDMS/MWNT composite with the largest aspect ratio to analyze the EMI shielding mechanism of the composite. Additionally, the effects of the MWNT content on the conductivity and EMI shielding performance were examined. The results provide valuable guidance for designing polymer MWNT composites with good electrical conductivity and EMI shielding performance under different aspect ratios of MWNTs.

This study examines the surface characteristics, electrical conductivity, electromagnetic wave blocking characteristics, infrared (IR) transmittance, stealth function, thermal characteristics, and moisture characteristics of IR thermal imaging cameras. Nylon film (NFi), nylon fabric (NFa), and 5 types of nylon mesh were selected as the base materials for aluminum sputtering, and aluminum sputtering was performed to study IR thermal imaging, color difference, temperature change, and so on, and the relationship with infrared transmittance was assessed. The electrical conductivity was measured and the aluminum-sputtered nylon film demonstrated 25.6kΩ of surface resistance and high electrical conductivity. In addition, the electromagnetic wave shielding characteristics of the sputtering-treated nylon film samples were noticeably increased as a result of aluminum sputtering treatment as measured by the electromagnetic wave blocking characteristics. When NFi and NFa samples with single-sided sputtering were placed on the human body (sputtering layer faced the outside air) and imaged using IR thermographic cameras, the sputtering layer displayed a color similar to the surroundings, showing a stealth effect. Moreover, the tighter the sample density, the better the stealth function. According to the L, a, b measurements, when the sputtering layer of NFi and NFa samples faced the outside air, the value of a was generally high, thereby demonstrating a concealing effect, and the E value was also high at 124.2 and 93.9, revealing a significant difference between the treated and untreated samples. This research may be applicable to various fields, such as the military wear, conductive sensors, electromagnetic wave shielding film, and others.

In this study, the frequency response analysis of a bistable electromagnetic vibration energy harvester is performed, based on an electromagnetic oscillator model, to investigate its nonlinear dynamic behaviors. The displacement and current responses are obtained, by the direct integration of the model, with the variations of mechanical and electromagnetic parameters. It is shown that the operating frequency band of the system can be broadened by the increase in mechanical parameters(inertial mass and Q-factor), but it does not depend significantly on any electromagnetic parameters(an external load resistance and the internal resistance of a coil). On the other hand, the output current of the energy harvester is affected only by the electromagnetic parameters (specifically, the sum of two resistances). Thus, the mechanical and electromagnetic parameters of the electromagnetic energy harvester must be designed properly, respectively, for broader and more efficient performance.

PURPOSES : This study aims at evaluating the use of an electromagnetic density gauge (EDG) to measure the in situ density and air-void content of asphalt concrete (AC) pavement. METHODS : In situ AC pavement density and air-void readings were obtained from two sites (Daegu and Ulsan) using an EDG. Calibration of the EDG was conducted by first obtaining density values at three different positions, on each pavement where core samples were extracted afterward. The core samples were then tested to obtain laboratory density and air-void values. The density measured using the EDG was then subtracted from the laboratory values to obtain the offset calibration values, which were then adopted to calibrate the in situ measurements using the EDG. Moreover, to analyze the effect of moisture on the pavement surface, EDG measurements were conducted under dry and wet conditions to compare the in-situ readings. RESULTS : The in-situ density readings of AC tend to be higher in moist/wet conditions. By applying the calibration value to the EDG readings, the density error percentage was reduced from 0.61% to 0.096%, and 0.64% to 0.16% for Daegu and Ulsan sites, respectively. Consequently, the air-void content error percentage was reduced from 12.8% to 1.04%, and from 10.07% to 1.78% for Daegu and Ulsan sites, respectively. CONCLUSIONS : The electromagnetic density gauge (EDG) is an effective tool for the non-destructive measurement of in situ pavement density. By applying offset calibration values, the error in the field readings was reduced, and the accuracy of the EDG measurements was improved.

Lightweight and flexible electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials are in great demand for wearable EMI device. In the present work, lightweight and flexible carbon nanotube (CNT)/ferroferric oxide ( Fe3O4) composite film was made through a feasible chemical vapor deposition process for CNT film synthesis, followed by a hydrothermal reduction process for Fe3O4 coating. In the as-prepared composite, CNT film and Fe3O4 particles work as conductive skeleton and strong magnetic particle, respectively. The as-prepared composite film shows a novel EMI shielding effectiveness (SE) of 91 dB in the X-band, a small thickness of 0.09 mm and a low density of 0.86 g/cm3, which is superior to most of the carbonbased EMI materials.

최근 국제적으로 신재생 에너지 개발이 활발함에 따라 풍력발전의 비중이 확대되고 있다. 특히 고품질의 풍력자원을 이용하고 소음 피해를 최소화하기 위하여 해안에서 멀리 떨어진 해역에 대규모 풍력단지가 조성되는 추세이다. 해상에 풍력단지가 건설됨에 따라 영해나 영공 감시를 위한 레이더에 간섭을 일으키는 문제 이외에도 해상에서 육상으로 송신하는 조난통신을 간섭하는 지에 대한 분석이 필요하다. 이를 위해서 본 연구에서는 선박에서 MF 또는 HF 대역의 전자파를 송신할 경우, 선박과 육상 기지국 사이에 위치한 해상풍력 발전단지가 송신된 전자파에 대한 간섭 여부를 분석하였다. 이를 위해 대상지역을 수치지형도와 풍력발전기 CAD모델을 활용하여 주변 환경 및 해상풍력 발전단지를 전자기학적으로 모델링하였다. 파장에 비해 광범위한 지역에 대한 전파 분석이므로 고주파 분석기법이 타당하나, 적용할 고주파 분석기법을 주변해역과 지형을 간략화하여 저주파 분석기법으로 먼저 검증하였다. 해상풍력 발전단지 부근에서 송신한 신호에 대해 육상기지국에서 수신한 전력을 분석한 결과, 발전단지가 설치되더라도 거의 동일한 수준으로 전파를 수신할 수 있었다. 이는 풍력발전기가 대형 구조물이기는 하나 타워의 직경은 수 미터에 불과하므로 지향성이 없고 파장이 긴 MF 및 HF 대역에 대해서는 큰 장애물로 작용하지 않기 때문으로 판단된다.

긴 파이프 라인 굴착 시설에 대한 광범위한 현장 평가는 예상과 달리 프레임 채널에서 생성된 진흙 흐름의 두께 변동이 평활하지 않아 펌프의 효율성에 영향을 미쳤다. 따라서 본 연구는 액체 저항을 줄이고 토양의 두께를 줄이는데 사용되는 전자기장(EMF)에 의하여 구조화된 프레임워크를 평가하는 데 중점을 두었다. 또한, 펌프의 효율성을 평가하기 위하여 빠른 점검이 가능한 프레임워크가 도입하였다. 300m의 절대 채널 길이와 11Kw의 펌프 강도를 사용하여 프레임 워크를 평가하기 위한 탐색적 연구를 수행하였다. 마찬가지로, 카올리나이트와 미분탄은 굴착된 진흙 흐름을 재현하기 위하여 사용하였다. EMF가 굴착토의 유속을 증대시키고 펌프의 효율성을 94.8%까지 구축함을 보인다.
