Heavy metals and alkali Liquid Metals are suitable coolants for Generation IV terrestrial nuclear reactors for operating at elevated temperatures for achieving plant thermal efficiency more than 40% and the thermochemical generation of hydrogen fuel. In addition, the low vapor pressure of these liquids eliminates the need for a pressure vessel and instead operates slightly below ambient pressure. A primary issue with the uses of these coolants is their compatibility with nuclear fuel, cladding and core structure materials at elevated temperatures more than 500oC. Therefore, in pile and out-of-pile test loops have been constructed or being considered for quantifying the …
Wireless Power Transfer In Autonomous Mobile Microgrids, Carl Greene
Wireless Power Transfer In Autonomous Mobile Microgrids, Carl Greene
Dissertations, Master's Theses and Master's Reports
The ability to autonomously dock unmanned ground vehicles plays a key role in mobile micro-grids, where efficient power transfer is paramount. The approach utilized in this work allows for near-field wireless power transfer in remote locations with minimal support. Establishing a micro-grid power system connection autonomously using wireless power eliminates the arduous task of designing a complex, multiple degrees of freedom (MDOF) robotic arm. The work presented in this thesis focuses on both the hardware and software within the micro-grid system. This particular near-field wireless system consists of a primary and secondary set of modules, comprised of Litz wire coils, …

Design, Fabrication, And Testing Of An Emr Based Orbital Debris Impact Testing Platform, Jeffrey J. Maniglia Jr.
Design, Fabrication, And Testing Of An Emr Based Orbital Debris Impact Testing Platform, Jeffrey J. Maniglia Jr.
Master's Theses
This paper describes the changes made from Cal Poly’s initial railgun system, the Mk. 1 railgun, to the Mk. 1.1 system, as well as the design, fabrication, and testing of a newer and larger Mk. 2 railgun system. The Mk. 1.1 system is developed as a more efficient alteration of the original Mk. 1 system, but is found to be defective due to hardware deficiencies and failure, as well as unforeseen efficiency losses. A Mk. 2 system is developed and built around donated hardware from the Naval Postgraduate School. The Mk. 2 system strove to implement an efficient, augmented, electromagnetic …
Electromagnetic Scattering From Coated Strips Utilizing The Adaptive Multiscale Moment Method, C. Shu, T. K. Sarkar
Electromagnetic Scattering From Coated Strips Utilizing The Adaptive Multiscale Moment Method, C. Shu, T. K. Sarkar
Electrical Engineering and Computer Science - All Scholarship
The aim of this paper is to consider the problem of electromagnetic scattering from perfectly conducting strips coated with thin dielectric material by use of the adaptive multiscale moment method (AMMM). In the next section, the basic formulation is presented for analysis of scattering from coated conducting strips on the basis of a coupled system of electric- and magnetic-field integral equations. Section 3 outlines the computational methodology of the multiscale basis by use of the moment method. Section 4 presents AMMM to solve the coupled EM integral equations. Section 5 presents a variety of numerical examples for different coating strips …
