The complexity of interaction between spacecraft and particle is difficult to assess, thus needs to be resolved numerically using appropriate method. Electro Magnetic Spacecraft Environment Simulator (EMSES) was developed based on Particle-in-Cell (PIC) which treated not only electrostatic phenomena but also selfconsistent analysis of electromagnetic effects on the spacecraft surfaces. We employed EMSES to simulate the charging of ERS-1 spacecraft and its influence on the vicinity of the spacecraft in low Earth orbit (LEO) environment. We focused on the floating potential of the spacecraft and the wake structure in the downstream region of the spacecraft. We also present the contribution of electric field to drive the ion trajectory passing through the sheath edge of the spacecraft.","PeriodicalId":41942,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Simulation in Science and Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67359678","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, wireless communications technology, such as wireless cellular networks, wireless area networks, wireless sensor networks, and vehicular communications among others, are considerably constrained by complicated structures, and lossy media in complex environments. Fundamental limitations on the transmission range have been treated to connect IoT devices in complex environments. In order to extend the transmission range in complex environments, Magnetic Induction (MI) communication has been proved to be an efficient solution. In this thesis, Multilayered Metamaterial Low Profile Antennas (MMLPA) using Magnetic Induction communication scheme are designed and prototyped for IoT applications. The channel model of the MMLPA system is analyzed. Then four models of MMLPA system are designed by using circular loop antennas backed with isotropic metamaterial which is considered as Defected Ground Structure (DGS) as well as with anisotropic metamaterial for the purpose of dielectric uniaxial metamaterial. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work that investigates the performance of a magnetic loop antenna coil backed with multiple layers of isotropic and anisotropic metamaterials for IoT applications in environment that are hostile, RF challenged, and especially in the vicinity of metal. By using a full-wave finite-element method, the proposed analysis is supported with simulation results where good agreement is achieved compared to the measurement results after realizing four prototypes of the MMLPA antennas. The effect of the presence of metal in the vicinity of the transceivers is also analyzed. A MMLPA-IoT system is developed for IoT applications.","PeriodicalId":41942,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Simulation in Science and Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.15748/JASSE.6.273","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67359302","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, in the present study, Berenger’s PML, which is currently the most effective absorbing boundary condition, is applied to the parallel finite element method based on the domain decomposition method, which is an effective analysis method for the microwave band. As a basic study, we developed an analysis code using a parallel finite element method based on the iterative domain decomposition method. In verifying the accuracy of the analysis code, we analyzed TEAM Workshop Problem 29, which is a benchmark problem, and confirmed that a highly accurate solution is obtained. Next, a model with Berenger’s PML added to the dipole antenna model is used as an analysis object, and the absorption performance of the PML is evaluated using a reflection coefficient based on the S parameter. Moreover, the accuracy of the antenna analysis is evaluated by comparing the directivity of the dipole antenna with the theoretical solution. As a result, the effectiveness of the proposed method for microwave analysis is confirmed.","PeriodicalId":41942,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Simulation in Science and Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.15748/JASSE.6.215","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67359285","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, an implicit function f (x) is generated in each of Voronoi cells by setting some constraints appropriately. An implicit surface is represented as f (x) = 0, and the constraints are set so that f (x) = 0 is generated inside each of Voronoi cells. In this model, walls of metal foam are represented by space between implicit surfaces of adjacent Voronoi cells. Rounded walls that have various thicknesses can be constructed by adjusting the constraints. In addition, the walls can be converted to a solid model constructed as tetrahedra filling the space.","PeriodicalId":41942,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Simulation in Science and Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.15748/JASSE.6.195","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67359424","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Robot operation from safety areas using teleoperation is highly desirable. To provide sufficient information, it is common to employ multiple displays, however, this often reduces operability. To avoid reduced operability we integrate all acquired images into a single bird eye view. The system is also capable of moving this viewpoint to any arbitrary position for ease of operation, and to overlay a computer-generated image of the robot that is synchronized to match the real robot pose onto the generated view when necessary. Experiments confirmed pose synchronization, generation of views from arbitrary positions, as well as improved operability.","PeriodicalId":41942,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Simulation in Science and Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.15748/JASSE.6.249","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67359540","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
