Abstract
Linear and planar antenna arrays are synthesized to have maximum directivity for a specified sidelobe level. The directivity is maximized subject to a given SLL. The beamwidth and the zeros of array factor are studied as well as the directivity. Maximum directivity-arrays are compared through some examples with super-directive, uniform, Dolph-Chebyshev and Riblet-Chebychev arrays to find a complete definition of optimum arrays. Also, the optimum value of n-bar is intuitively found for Taylor arrays.

Abstract
Nonuniform Phased Sampling method is proposed to phase-only synthesize the power pattern of both linear and planar antenna arrays. This method modifies the conventional sampling method which is used for amplitude-phase synthesis. This method is based on assigning suitable phases to the sampling points of radiation pattern in order to reach desired amplitude of currents. Some examples are given to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method for both pencil-beam and shaped beam patterns.

Abstract
Anisotropic media appear regularly in electromagnetic wave engineering. The finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method is a robust technique to model such media. However, the value of the time step in the FDTD algorithm is bounded by the Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy (CFL) condition. In this paper, a simple analytical approach is developed using the Gershgorin circle theorem to derive a point-wise closed-form relation for the CFL condition in bounded inhomogeneous anisotropic media. The proposed technique includes objects of arbitrary shapes with straight, tilted, or curved interfaces located in a computational space with uniform or adaptive gridding schemes. Both axial and non-axial anisotropies are considered in the analysis. The proposed method is able to investigate the effect of boundaries and interfaces on the stability of the algorithm. It is shown that in the presence of an interface between two anisotropic media, the von-Neumann criterion is not able to predict the stability bound for specific ranges of the permittivity tensor components and unit cell aspect ratios. Exploiting the proposed closed-form formulations, it is possible to tune the CFL time step and avoid the temporal instability by the wise selection of the gridding scheme especially in curved boundaries where subcell modelings such as Yu-Mittra formalism are applicable. Some illustrative examples are provided to verify the method by comparing the results with those of the eigenvalue analysis and time-domain simulations.

Abstract
Linear antenna arrays are synthesized to have maximum directivity for a specified beamwidth. The directivity is maximized subject to a given beamwidth such as null to null or half power one. The excitation currents are obtained using a matrix equation obtained from the Lagrange multiplier method. The performance of the proposed method is studied by means of some examples. The synthesized arrays have the pre-specified beamwhidths and their directivity is close to the number of elements.

Abstract
In this paper, a new topology of fractional slot concentrated winding double rotor axial flux permanent magnet synchronous motor (FSCW-DRAFPMSM) is introduced. The desired structure consists of a nonslotted stator core and two rotor discs. The pole number of the two rotors is different and these two rotors rotate at different speeds in opposite directions. A sample motor with an output power of 200 Watts is designed with the proposed structure. The two rotors of this sample motor rotate with speeds of 1200 and 857 rpm. The Finite Element Method (FEM) is employed to evaluate the performance of the proposed structure. Some performance characteristics of the case study machine, such as the Back EMF, input power, and electromagnetic torques of two rotors are presented to confirm the correctness of the operation of the proposed structure. In addition, the shifting technique is used to improve the Back EMF waveform of the machine. An analytical formula is proposed for calculating the fundamental component of the Back EMF waveform. The accuracy of the formula is approved by FEM.
