The Dual Use of Power Distribution Networks for Data Communications in High Speed Integrated Circuits
… method in high speed integrated circuits using power distribution networks (PDNs). The conventional purpose of PDNs in integrated circuits (ICs) is to deliver power to internal nodes of an IC while meeting a level of power integrity. As the power consumption increases for very large scale …

Sistemas de proteção para redes de distribuição elétrica submarinas não aterradas
In the offshore world, the need for pumping expansion and subsea processing has been increasing in recent years mainly due to the search for optimization of resources and space in the platforms, in addition, a lot of cases, the subsea pumping is the only feasible of production projects. Thus, in …

Clock division as a power saving strategy in a system constrained by high transmission frequency and low data rate
Systems are often restricted to have higher transmission frequency than required by their data rates. Possible constraints include channel attenuation, power requirements, and backward compatibility. As a result these systems have unused band- width, leading to inefficient use of power. In this …

An Exploration of Change, Progression and Transition in, Through and Beyond Community Education.
This thesis sets out to examine the experiences of adult learners in, through and beyond community education. To interrogate this question a qualitative study was carried out using semi structured interviews with five adult learners at and two adult guidance counsellors were carried out. This …

Power constructs and propositional systems
Propositional systems are deductively closed sets of sentences phrased in the language of some propositional logic. The set of systems of a given logic is turned into an algebra by endowing it with a number of operations, and into a relational structure by endowing it with a number of relations. …

A technical, economic, and environmental assessment of Power-to-X applications for heavy-duty transport
Deep decarbonisation of the global energy sector is essential in order to avoid the worst impacts of anthropogenic climate change. Finding more sustainable ways to transport both people and goods is key to meeting ambitious emissions targets. The low energy density of current battery technology …

New venture commercialization of clean energy technologies
… emissions associated with the generation and use of power (e.g. CO2) and many of these technologies have been shown to be cost effective and to provide significant benefits to adopters. Examples of clean energy technologies include renewable and/or efficient distributed generation (e.g. solar, …

Improved performance alternator with fully integrated Switched-Mode Rectifier
The use of Power Electronic circuits has helped to advance the technology of automotive alternators. The use of a Switched-Mode Rectifier (SMR) allows the alternator to run at a load-matched condition, optimizing power and efficiency over all operating speeds. However, the use of SMR's has largely …

Student Programming and Identity in French Language Studies at an Ontario College
… themselves to learning French? What kinds of social issues do they confront when coming back? How do such issues impact their identities? Using the frameworks developed within sociocultural second language acquisition, identity, and motivational theories, this exploratory study includes …

POWER SPECTRAL ANALYSIS OF SURFACE MYOELECTRIC SIGNALS DURING DYNAMIC CONTRACTIONS
The stochastic nature of surface myoelectric signals (MES) requires the use of power spectral analysis for effective characterisation. Spectral changes during different types of muscular activity are monitored using spectral parameters like mean power frequency, ratios of powers in several …

A novel method for power system stabilizer design
Power system stability is defined as the condition of a power system that enables it to remain in a state of operating equilibrium under normal operating conditions and to regain an acceptable state of equilibrium after being subjected to a finite disturbance. In the evaluation of stability, the …

Lossless multi-way power combining and outphasing for radio frequency power amplifiers
For applications requiring the use of power amplifiers (PAs) operating at high frequencies and power levels, it is often preferable to construct multiple low power PAs and combine their output powers to form a high-power PA. Moreover, such PAs must often be able to provide dynamic control of their …

Sovereignty and the Governance of Globalization: The Emergence of Empire or the Conquest of US Security Interests?
As the economic, political, and cultural forces of globalization continue to proliferate throughout the international community, the concept of sovereignty will be increasingly challenged with the task of grappling with the problems of governing these forces. This thesis examines Michael Hardt and …

Strength out of Weakness: Harnessing Information Gained from the Pair Structure of Composite Marginal Likelihood Estimation
… policy decisions. However, the subjective nature of utility function specification has the potential to introduce variability in model outcomes, thereby undermining forecast reliability and potentially leading to discrepancies between data-driven recommendations and stakeholder decisions. This …
