Highly Compact Partial Power Converter for a Highly Efficient PV-BESS Stacked Generation System
No full textThe inherently intermittent nature of photovoltaic (PV) energy has brought increasing interest towards the integration between PV sources and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS). In this paper, a Series Partial Power Processing (PPP) converter based on Capacitive Power Transfer (CPT) is proposed to integrate PV and BESS in a grid-connected inverter system. The proposed converter has been simulated according to a PV string capable to provide 1430 W under full irradiance conditions, a BESS nominal voltage equal to 215 V and a solar inverter assumed to operate with a minimum voltage of 150 V and a maximum current of 10 A. Simulation tests carried out at different conditions of solar radiation and required load power aim at demonstrating the correct operation of the proposed system.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository 'You share, we take care!' - Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.DC systems, Energy conversion & Storag

Tracy Clark, MusicFaculty Mentor: Professor Carolyn Guzski, Music
Tracy is a December 2020 graduate of the Bachelor of Arts in Music program, where she majored in Voice and Bassoon. This fall she will pursue the Master of Music degree in Musicology at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, where she has been awarded a UT Access and Diversity Fellowship and a Graduate Teaching Assistantship. She will assist faculty with teaching and research within UT’s historical musicology and ethnomusicology program.
In her fellowship, Tracy focused on the life of the Broadway actor and singer Frank H. Wilson (1886-1956), renowned for creating the title role in Porgy (1927), which served as the basis for George Gershwin’s opera Porgy and Bess. Wilson’s achievements in stage, film, and broadcasting significantly won him a place in the African American National Biography. Tracy’s findings filled in several significant lacunae in Wilson’s life, including his educational background, his foundational training, and the early development of his professional acting career.https://digitalcommons.buffalostate.edu/srcc-sp21-usrfp/1005/thumbnail.jp

No full textUpdate on social lifeThorp Spring, Texas.Mar. 10, 1895.Dear Brother:Mr. C. Jones was here last week, from Sunday to Thursday. I gave a little reception in his honor on Tuesday evening. Did everything to make his visit pleasant –treated him too well for his “peace of heart.” But if I had been less kind and entertaining it would have hurt him. However seriousmay be the results –I willexert myself to entertain anyone who comes to see me. I treat my friends too well –they tell me-and perhaps they are right, but why should I not treat them as well as I can. It is a pleasure to me to do it. It is not that I want them to love me –not that. I never think of that when entertaining them. When with any one of my friends I know I canmake the time pass so pleasantly and quickly for him –and I take great pride and pleasurein doing it. I want them to enjoy being with me, and feel that they have gained something each time.I wish my friends would be satisfied with what I give them -my friendship.It is hard to be good friend whenthere is a feeling of more than friendshipon oneside. I’m worried and grieved -though I’ve nothing to censure myself for –about Mr. C.J. He does really and truly love me for what the thinks I am. And when such a man as he lovesit is genuine. He is so good, true, and noble any girl would be proud of his love –even of his friendship –and it seems any girl could return his love. But I don’t know whether or not I could –and even if I felt I could I would be afraid to commit myself lest I should be mistaken.And as I’m going away for a year –perhaps two, it would not be wise for me to give him or any one the least hope –would it?Brother, I’m fickle and-changeable –can’t help it -and when I go away next fall I must be perfectly free –no duty or obligation to any one in that time. –Don’tyou think so? It may be that I could love one of these friends better than any one –perhaps I do now –one doesn’t always know –how am I to know! They are all worthy of my love. As I wrote you I think more of Mr. F–than any of them–perhaps because the home folks don’t like him. And I’ve gone with him too much until he thinks too much of me. It is hard to always do just right –to know what is right. My first duty is to mama, isn’t it? If for any reason or no reason, she dislikes one of my friendsand doesn’t want me to go or talk with him then it is my duty to refrain from it –not drop the friend, but do as you say make no opportunity to talk to him.
Yes, it seemsto me now that along such a line my duty lies. I did not think so at first. And such would be my duty even if I dearly loved the friend, wouldn’t it? It is my duty to save mama from all the heart aches possible, and do nothing to grieve her –even though it be to sacrifice my own happiness. Am I right? But enough. Tell me what you thinkabout it all –especially the first part so I can think about it and have my mind fully made up as to what I should say to Mr. F.J. when he comes commencement -and Mr. C.J. will be here also.Had a letter from Blanche yesterday. She wants me to go to see her next summer. Wish I could. I told the home folks I was going to just before time for you to come home and have you come by there, but they said you had to come home first. She seems to be getting along well at Italy. The primary children gave me asilver nutcrackerfor a birthday present.The Y.W.C.A. Convention is in session here now, about fifteen delegates. Had an excellent meeting last evening. Continues until Monday evening, -we close with a banquet –or reception.One week from tomorrow evening our grand dramatic entertainment comes off. We are to play Hans Von Smash, KansasImmigrants, Spoopindikes Pig, alsohave club swinging, a recitation from Lena W –song by Patti Miller, and I will recite Zingarella.We are giving it for the benefit of our to be gymnasium. If you are here you and Mr. Easley can get up one occassionally [sic] next session.Carlie is “Sam” in Kansas Immigrants, and he acts his part well.Mr. Morrison and Flora have the Valedictory and Salutatory in class,-both Add-Rans.We have made out our society program–except recitations –we are “in the soup” there –have only one –Bess Howard –who recites well. They want meto and I don’t think I should and won’t do it. Pen is so miserable I can’t scribble more.Much loveYours-Sister
The Bookshelf for Boys and Girls, Volume 2
No full textSixteen fables of Aesop and a few other fables start off this volume. The editor of these versions is not acknowledged. The illustrations are a third set for Aesop by Kurt Wiese (Favorite Stories, 1942; Jacobs' The Fables of Aesop, 1950/62). The frontispiece is a strong full-page colored depiction of FC by Bess B. Cleveland. I believe that I have seen it somewhere else as frontispiece, but I cannot place it. Compare the smaller version of the same illustration in The Home University Bookshelf, Volume III, 380 (1945).

No full textFables of Aesop are on 364-88. Some curious tellings: the monkey seizes the cat's paws and makes her grab the hot nuts, and the moral of FG is Disappointment may be lightened by philosophy, even if the latter is wrong. A curious melange of illustrations: four nice colored illustrations to a page by Bess Bruce Cleveland in addition to the black-and-whites on the pages themselves (which look copied). Aesop is followed by fables of India, Gay, La Fontaine, and others. Also check 257-74: this Japanese and Other Oriental Tales section includes The Story of Zirac and other fable material.
