The 1.2MV, 70ns FWHM induction cell is developed for a 3MV Induction Voltage Adder (IVA) accelerator with three series connected cavities through a high voltage, vacuum insulating transmission line (VITL) driving rod-pinch diode (RPD) for radiography. The experimentally measured maximum relative permeability of IVA used amorphous material under pulse excitation is consistent with saturation wave model with flux density changing rate dB/dt greater than 10T/μs up to 32 T/μs. The remanence ratio Br/Bs is experimentally measured for IVA pre-annealed amorphous cores. Upon experimental results, cores in each cell are designed and determined according to current transfer efficiency and volt-second integral necessary for each induction cavity, and peak field preventing VITL bore negative surface from electron emission. The field analysis is carried out for designing VITL vacuum stack and oil cavity that contains cores and azimuthal transmission line with operation field stress being about 50% critical breakdown field. The prototype cell tests validate electric field safety and magnetic core performance. With magnetization inductance and resistance of eddy current calculated for inductive cell, the IVA accelerator circuit model is set up, and simulation predictions approximately according with experimental results are presented.

This paper presents experimental results of motored engine tests on the wear and profile development of a twin-land oil-control ring. It is shown that the roughness height of the plateau honed liner decreases during running-in, indicating that the deeper grooves remain unaffected. The piston lands are much smoother, and do not show a significant overall change in surface roughness. The profile development results are compared with computer predictions in order to verify the theoretical modeling. It is indicated that the worn land profiles remain tapered, with an inclination resembling the twist angle of the ring. However, there remains a difference in the experimental and the numerically predicted land inclinations. This is probably due to the piston tilt, which was not included in the theoretical model.

Abstract Fluidic braided artificial muscles have been studied for close to seventy years. Their high power-to-weight ratio and force-to-weight ratio make them a desirable actuation technology for compact and lightweight mobile manipulation. Use of hydraulics with fluidic artificial muscles has helped realize high actuation forces with new potential applications. To achieve large actuation forces produced from high internal pressure, artificial muscles operate near the limitations of their mechanical strength. Design improvements and future applications in mechanical systems will benefit from detailed theoretical analysis of the fluidic artificial muscle mechanics. This paper presents the theoretical modeling of a hydraulic artificial muscle, analysis of its mechanics, and experimental results that validate the model. A prototype is analyzed that operates at 14 MPa and can generate up to 6.3 kN of force and a displacement of 21.5 mm. This model promises to be useful for mechanical system design and model-based control.

A scattering system comprising two coaxial, dielectric cylinders has been studied theoretically and experimentally. Calculations have been made of the forward and back scattered fields for several combinations of inner and outer radii. It has been found that, by covering a metal cylinder with a coaxial dielectric shield, it is possible to eliminate to some extent the deep near-field shadow. Experimental results obtained at a wavelength of 3.275 cm. using a parallel-plate transmission line are in good agreement with calculations.
