This work proposes a two-dimensional (2-D) laser scanning mirror with a novel actuating structure composed of one magnet and two coils. The mirror-actuating device generates decoupled scanning motions about two orthogonal axes by combining two electromagnetic actuators of the conventional moving-coil and the moving-magnet types. We implement a finite element analysis to calculate magnetic flux in the electromagnetic system and experiments using a prototype with the overall size of 22 mm (W) × 20 mm (D) × 15 mm (H) for the mirror size of 8 mm × 8 mm. The upper moving-coil type actuator to rotate only the mirror part has the optical reflection angle of 15.7° at 10 Hz, 90° at the resonance frequency of 60 Hz at ±3 V (±70 mA) and the bandwidth of 91 Hz. The lower moving-magnet type actuator has the optical reflection angle of 16.20° at 10 Hz and 50° at the resonance frequency of 60 Hz at ±5 V (±34 mA) and the bandwidth of 88 Hz. The proposed compact and simple 2-D scanning mirror has advantages of large 2-D angular deflections, wide frequency bandwidth and low manufacturing cost.

This paper deals with the operating rage evaluation on double-side permanent magnet synchronous motor/generator (DPMSM/G) for flywheel energy storage system (FESS). The motor/generators used in FESS have wide operating range due to its charge/discharge mechanism. The motor/generators should be operated to satisfy not only the required electric power but also structural stability in operating range of FESS. To evaluate the operating range of FESS, this paper presents the approach on the electromagnetic and mechanic characteristic analysis using a developed DPMSM/G. As the electromagnetic characteristic, the motoring and generating characteristic analysis are performed by circuit parameter estimation. In addition, as the mechanical characteristic, the rotor dynamics analysis of the flywheel rotor is performed. Finally, the operating performance and analysis result will be confirmed by experiment.

Pumps, as core pieces of equipment in ships, are installed in the engine room to supply refined oil to the engine. Pump failure causes critical problems for ship operations. Therefore, failure-monitoring-based diagnosis technology is an essential requirement in the shipbuilding industry. For this purpose, a database containing information about the failure states depending on the main cause of the failure cases of the pump needs to be developed. In the present study, failure causes of pumps based on actual accident records were quantitatively analyzed. Then, failure modes for the bearing, coupling, sealing, and screw, which are the core parts of the oil pump, were determined. Test infrastructures for the oil pump were developed to obtain normal and abnormal data considering diverse operating conditions. Based on the vibration data from the accelerometer installed on the test infrastructures, the frequency of failure was analyzed through Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). In addition, more precise results were obtained by performing Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT) for the FFT results that indicated severe failure. Finally, over 200 data entries were accumulated on the core parts of the oil pump, considering normal as well as abnormal operating conditions. The database constructed in this study is expected to help in investigating failure diagnosis and prediction of algorithm models for ship management.
