Caractérisation et modélisation de diodes Schottky et JBS SiC-4H pour des applications haute tension
No full textThe SiC Schottky diode can potentially replace the PiN diode in power appli- cations. As a matter of fact, high blocking voltage, low resistivity as well as temperature independence of the reverse recovery current make this diode ideal for DC/DC power converters. Nevertheless, Schottky diodes meet some reluc- tance before the abundance of PiN Si diodes. Despite the numerous demons- trations of power electronics systems, there are still some reliability aspects to improve. This study focuses on static characteristic in a large temperature range and reliability assessment of repetitive surge test of Schottky and JBS diodes. The measurements of forward and reverse characteristics yielded new models in a wide temperature range. Repetitive surge tests enabled us to com- pare the reliability of experimental and commercial diodes in order to prove the maturity of this technology.La diode Schottky SiC est un composant qui peut potentiellement remplacer la diode PiN Si dans les applications de puissance. Effectivement, la tenue en tension élevée, la faible résistivité, ainsi que l’indépendance de la température du courant de recouvrement rendent cette diode idéale pour les convertis- seurs de puissance DC/DC. Cependant, face à l’abondance des composants Si sur le marché, la diode Schottky rencontre une certaine réticence. Malgré les nombreuses démonstrations de systèmes électroniques de puissance réalisés, la fiabilité de cette technologie n’arrive pas à convaincre. Cette étude porte sur la caractérisation en régime statique sur une large gamme de températures et l’évaluation de la fiabilité en surcharge des diodes Schottky et JBS SiC-4H. La caractérisation en température a permis de proposer des modèles de la carac- téristique directe et inverse sur une gamme étendue de températures. Les tests en surcharge ont permis de comparer la fiabilité de diodes expérimentales et commerciales à fin de montrer la maturité de cette technologie

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
