Yes / The main objective of this work is to investigate the combinatory effects of both uniaxial magnetic and electrical anisotropies on the input impedance, resonant length and the mutual coupling between two dipoles printed on an anisotropic grounded substrate. Three different configurations: broadside, collinear and echelon are considered for the coupling investigation. The study is based on the numerical solution of the integral equation using the method of moments through the mathematical derivation of the appropriate Green’s functions in the spectral domain. In order to validate the computing method and evaluated Matlab® calculation code, numerical results are compared with available literature treating particular cases of uniaxial electrical anisotropy; good agreements are observed. New results of dipole structures printed on uniaxial magnetic anisotropic substrates are presented and discussed, with the investigation of the combined electrical and magnetic anisotropies effect on the input impedance and mutual coupling for different geometrical configurations. The combined uniaxial (electric and magnetic) anisotropies provide additional degrees of freedom for the input impedance control and coupling reduction. / This work is part of the POSITION-II project funded by the ECSEL joint Undertaking under grant number Ecsel-7831132-Postitio-II-2017-IA,www. position-2.eu and partly funded by FCT/MCTES through national funds and when applicable co-funded EU funds under the project UIDB/50008/2020- UIDP/50008/2020.

O objetivo desta é recondicionar o rebolo para restabelecer suas características de corte perdidas devido ao desgaste produzido após sucessivos passes. Sistemas de monitoramento que utilizam emissão acústica (EA) têm sido propostos para correlacionar os sinais com diversas condições da ferramenta. Este estudo traz uma nova abordagem de processamento de sinais de EA com o objetivo de identificar o momento correto para finalizar a dressagem, o que é essencial em um sistema de controle automático. A partir dos sinais de EA, coletados em testes de dressagem de rebolo de óxido de alumínio com dressador de ponta única, a análise espectral foi realizada por meio da Densidade Espectral de Potência (PSD, Power Spectral Density), selecionando-se bandas de frequências que melhor caracterizam o processo. O parâmetro estatístico "counts" foi aplicado ao sinal original não filtrado e filtrado nas bandas selecionadas para identificar a condição da ferramenta e, por sua vez, para a implementação de um sistema de monitoramento. Os resultados mostraram uma relação expressiva entre as condições de corte da ferramenta e os sinais processados nas bandas selecionadas. Houve uma grande diferença dos sinais filtrados nas bandas selecionadas e sinais não filtrados, refletindo que os filtrados foram mais eficientes em termos de automação de processos. / Dressing is an important operation for the grinding process. Its goal is to recondition the wheel tool to re-establish its cutting characteristics, owing to the wear produced after successive passes. Monitoring systems that use acoustic emission (AE) have been studied to correlate the signals with several tool conditions. This study brings a new approach of processing AE signals with the purpose of identifying the correct moment to stop the dressing, which is essential in an automatic control system. From the AE signals collected in dressing tests with aluminium oxide grinding wheel and single-point dresser, spectral analysis was made through power spectral density, selecting frequencies bands that best characterize the process. The statistical parameter ‘counts’ was applied to the raw signal unfiltered and filtered in the selected bands in order to identify the tool condition and, in turn, towards a monitoring system implementation. Results showed an expressive relation between tool cutting conditions and processed signals in the selected bands. There was a great disparity of the filtered signals in the selected bands and signals unfiltered, reflecting that the filtered ones were more efficient in terms of process automation.

The structures are composed of two frequency selective surfaces on isotropic dielectric substrates cascaded, separated by a layer of air. The analysis is performed using the method of equivalent transmission line in combination with the Galerkin method, to determine the transmission and reflection characteristics of the structures analyzed. Specifically, the analysis uses the impedance method, which models the structure by an equivalent circuit, and applies the theory of transmission lines to determine the dyadic Green's function for the cascade structure. This function relates the incident field and surface current densities. These fields are determined algebraically by means of potential incidents and the imposition of the continuity of the fields in the dielectric interfaces. The Galerkin method is applied to the numerical determination of the unknown weight coefficients and hence the unknown densities of surface currents, which are expanded in terms of known basis functions multiplied by these weight coefficients. From the determination of these functions, it becomes possible to obtain numerical scattered fields at the top and bottom of the structures and characteristics of transmission and reflection of these structures. At work, we present numerical and experimental results for the characteristics of transmission and reflection. Comparisons were made with other results presented in literature, and it was observed a good agreement in the cases presented suggestions continuity of the work are presented / Esse trabalho apresenta uma an?lise te?rica e resultados num?ricos e experimentais das caracter?sticas de espalhamento de superf?cies seletivas em frequ?ncia, que usam elementos do tipo patch perfeitamente condutor. As estruturas s?o compostas por duas superf?cies seletivas em frequ?ncia sobre substratos diel?tricos isotr?picos cascateadas, separadas por uma camada de ar. A an?lise ? efetuada utilizando-se o m?todo da linha de transmiss?o equivalente em combina??o com o m?todo de Galerkin, visando determinar as caracter?sticas de transmiss?o e reflex?o das estruturas analisadas. Especificamente, a an?lise usa o m?todo da imped?ncia, que modela a estrutura por meio de um circuito equivalente e, aplica-se a teoria de linhas de transmiss?o para determinar a fun??o di?dica de Green, para a estrutura em cascata. Esta fun??o relaciona os campos incidentes e as densidades superficiais de corrente. Estes campos s?o determinados algebricamente por meio dos potenciais incidentes e da imposi??o da continuidade dos campos nas interfaces diel?tricas. O m?todo de Galerkin ? aplicado na determina??o num?rica dos coeficientes pesos desconhecidos e, consequentemente, das densidades superficiais de correntes desconhecidas, que s?o expandidas em termos de fun??es de base conhecidas multiplicadas por esses coeficientes peso. A partir da determina??o destas fun??es, torna-se poss?vel a obten??o num?rica dos campos espalhados no topo e na base das estruturas e das caracter?sticas de transmiss?o e de reflex?o destas estruturas.
