This paper presents a low cost but high power density tubular linear switch reluctance generator (TLSRG) with ring segments for Direct Drive Marine Wave Energy Conversion (WEC). The ring segments are both magnetically and electrically isolated with each other increasing the capability of flux carrying and the power density. The performance characteristics at generator mode are discussed in this paper,...
This paper presents a new yokeless Linear Switch Reluctance Machine (LSRM) for Urban Rail Transit System (URTS) which primary and secondary sides both feature modular structure. The primary side consists of independent cores of different width with the bigger core wound by a simple concentric winding while the smaller core remains unwound. The secondary, i.e. the stator of the LSRM includes series...
Water strider insects have attracted many researchers' attention with their power efficient and agile water surface locomotion. This study proposes a new water strider insect inspired robot, called STRIDE II, which uses new circular footpads for high lift, stability, payload capability, and a new elliptical leg rotation mechanism for more efficient water surface propulsion. The lift, drag and propulsion...
Both experiment and simulation works were utilized to research the deposition behavior of single coiled nanofiber on silicon substrate from Near-Field Electrospinning (NFES). In the experiment process, when the collector moving speed (CMS) is compatible with electrospinning speed, straight line nanofiber can be collected. When CMS decreases, jet would step into whipping motion due to the imbalance...
Near-Field Electrospinning (NFES) was utilized to research the buckling behaviors of electrospinning nanofiber on the silicon patterned substrate. Nanofiber would be deposited in spiral shape due to the bulking behaviors of jet. Buckling of jet is more obvious under the stronger electrical field and lower collector motion speed (CMS), which leads nanofiber to be deposited in spiral shape. The electrical...
