    OPTIMAL PWM DESIGN FOR HIGH-POWER 3-LEVEL INVERTER THROUGH COMPARATIVE-STUDIES

    No full text
    Comparative studies between harmonic elimination and optimal PWM strategies are given for high power three-level inverter feeding induction motor. An effective PWM map construction method based on Valid Region on Frequency Modulation Index Plane is suggested. Thereby, an optimal map including asynchronous space vector PWM, harmonic elimination and optimal PWM method is generated covering all of the low, middle and high modulation index regions. The PWM map was designed for 1 MVA rated general purpose GTO inverter and implemented with digital signal processor. Experimental results are presented for 10 KVA prototype

    Characteristics of an address discharge in ac plasma display panels

    In this study, the basic characteristics of an address discharge have been investigated on the dependence of an address pulse voltage and its characteristics were analyzed by the wall voltage measurement method. During the address operation, the discharge between an address electrode and a scan electrode is first generated by an address pulse voltage and then the discharge between a scan electrode and a common electrode is induced. The resultant wall voltage between the address electrode and a scan electrode is strongly dependent on an address pulse voltage while the resultant wall voltage between a scan electrode and a common electrode is roughly independent on an address pulse voltage.This work was supported by the Korea Research Foundation Grant funded by the Korean Government (R08-2003-000-10376-1)

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The 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

    “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

    We 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
