Episode 35: Alexis Castellanos, Author of “Isla to Island”, and Her Panel Presentation during the Operación Pedro Pan Two-Day Event
No full textIn Part 1 of “Operación Pedro Pan: The Voices and Stories of Cuba’s Child Exodus—A Knights HistoryCast Mini-Series,” the Department of History’s Sebastian Garcia talked with Alexis Castellanos, an author, illustrator, graphic novelist, and a panelist at the esteemed, conspicuous, and powerful “Operación Pedro Pan: Honoring the Cultural, Historical Legacy of Cuba’s Child Exodus” Two-Day Program that Florida Humanities, UCF’s Department of English and Department of Modern Languages and Literatures sponsored (see https://cah.ucf.edu/pedro-pan/ for more details on sponsors and the program in general).
Sebastian structured this specific episode on Alexis Castellanos’ Isla to Island, a wordless graphic novel grounded by her personal family history and the history of Operación Pedro Pan (Operation Peter Pan). By analyzing such a historic event through the medium of fiction, Sebastian argued that this is one of the most unique Knights HistoryCast episodes of all time. Naturally, their conversation expanded to what she talked about during her panel presentation in Panel One, Day 1 of the event that featured “internationally renowned scholars that discussed the political, historical, and cultural legacy of Operación Pedro Pan (1960-1962).” (https://cah.ucf.edu/pedro-pan/)

THE MYSTIC ROAD : SELECTED POEMS - ALEXIS KARPOUZOS
No full text
Alexis karpouzos (born on April 09, 1967) is a philosopher, author, spiritual master and pioneer of higher consciousness. He is author of several books on philosophy, metaphysics, spirituality, modern science. His most famous books are: ‘’Universal consciousness’’, ‘’non-duality’’, ‘’An ocean of souls’’, ‘’Beyond the heaven’’. Alexis Karpouzos is also a recording artist. He has recorded two music albums and twenty-four singles songs. He has also appeared in two documentary films, television and radio productions. He is the pioneer of the post-ontology consciousness and the wisdom of universal wholeness. The global language of poetry of Alexis Karpouzos, by following the paths of wisdom, is a vehicle for transmitting human knowledge and values, history, ancient traditions, and links with nature. It transmits the human values and worldly knowledge that are essential for opening ourselves to the Other. Poetic creation, therefore, forges very strong links between humans -it transcends beyond languages, beliefs and cultures. Each poem appears in its original form, in a vibrant celebration of life, diversity, language, and the enduring power of poetry. At a time when the Humanities are under threat, this book offers a defense of poetry within the context of growing interest in mindfulness in spirituality, in consciousness, in art, in education.</p

Control digital vectorial con sliding en fuente de corriente para convertidores CC/CA trifásicos conectados a red
No full textLa energía ha sido desde la antigüedad un factor impulsor del desarrollo de la sociedad, pero no siempre su uso ha respetado la preservación de la naturaleza y el medio ambiente. En ese sentido, las fuentes tradicionales de generación de energía, como los hidrocarburos y la energía nuclear, son altamente contaminantes, por lo que se plantea una contradicción al desearse un desarrollo sostenible que no comprometa el bienestar de las futuras generaciones.
la utilización de las energías solar y eólica como fuentes de energías primarias está limitada actualmente debido a la competencia de las grandes transnacionales del petróleo que ajustan los precios para entorpecer su desarrollo. En los últimos años se ha notado un creciente interés por parte de los gobiernos europeos, que han subvencionado la investigación y desarrollo de nuevos centros de cogeneración solar y eólica. las fuentes de energías alternativas producen corriente continua y las cargas industriales consumen corriente alterna, por lo que es necesaria una etapa intermedia de conversión. A esta etapa se le denomina conversión continua-alterna y a los equipos que la realizan convertidores CC/CA o inversores.
Las técnicas de modulación del ancho del pulso (PWM, del inglés Pulse Width Modulation) han sido objeto de un amplio estudio durante las últimas décadas [BRO88], [DIX88], [HOL92], [MOH95], [NOV96]. Una gran variedad de métodos, diferentes en su concepto y funcionamiento, han sido ampliamente desarrollados y descritos en la literatura. Su implementación en el control de convertidores CC/CA dependerá, por ejemplo, de la aplicación, del nivel de potencia, y de los dispositivos semiconductores empleados en el convertidor de potencia.Para solventar la desventaja del control PWM clásico se utiliza el control Sliding en fuente de corriente, decidiendo el estado de los polos en tiempo real en función de las medidas de corriente. Este tipo de control tiene la virtud de adaptarse a los cambios que se produzcan en la carga, por lo que tendrá una respuesta dinámica muy rápida. En cambio, tiene la desventaja de la gran capacidad de cálculo que necesita, por lo que requiere el empleo de Procesadores Digitales de Señales (DSP del inglés Digital Signal Processor. La aplicación del vector de Park a sistemas trifásicos constituye una poderosa herramienta para el análisis y control de los convertidores CC/CA trifásicos alimentando diferentes tipos de cargas (motor asincrono trifásico, UPS, conexión a red, etc.) haciendo posible el desacople de las ecuaciones diferenciales que rigen el comportamiento de los sistemas en ejes rotatorios independientes, sin perder de vista el significado físico que las magnitudes del vector de Park representan
La tesis se divide la siguiente manera: el capitulo 1 es la introducción,el segundo capítulo brinda una visión general de los fundamentos teóricos del funcionamiento de los convertidores de potencia.Capítulo 3 presenta un resumen de las características del vector de Park y la posibilidad de su empleo en sistemas trifásicos equilibrados, el 4 se presenta un nuevo observador de estado y se compara su comportamiento con el observador de estado anterior, propuesto por Domínguez. Por medio de la simulación se traza su función de transferencia de tensión y se calculan las distorsiones armónicas de la tensión y la frecuencia observadas.En el 5 se presentan las estrategias de control sliding vectorial en fuente de corriente propuestas, tanto para el control en tres como en cinco niveles, por medio de la aplicación del vector de Park,.En el capítulo 6, se lleva a cabo el dimensionado del equipo conectado a red, calculándose las constantes del regulador de la tensión de continua y garantizando la entrega de la máxima potencia a la red.En el capítulo 7 se hace un descripción resumida de las PLD's. Por último, las conclusiones de la tesis se encuentran en el capítulo 8.Programa de doctorado en Tecnología Electrónica y Teoría de la SeñalUniversidad de Valladoli
COSMOLOGY, PHILOSOPHY AND PHYSICS: ALEXIS KARPOUZOS
No full textIf physics leads us today to a world view which is essentially holistic, it returns, in a way, to its beginning, 2,500 years ago. It is interesting to follow the evolution of Western science along its spiral path, starting from the mystical philosophies of the early Greeks, rising and unfolding in an impressive development of intellectual thought that increasingly turned away from its mystical origins to develop a world view which is in sharp contrast to that of the Far East In its most recent stages, Western science is finally overcoming this view and coming back to those of the early Greek and the Eastern philosophies. This time, however, it is not only based on intuition, but also on experiments of great precision and sophistication, and on a rigorous and consistent mathematical formalism. The parallels to modem physics appear not only in the Vedas of Hinduism, in the I Ching , or in the Buddhist sutras, but also in the fragments of Heraclitus, Parmenides, Plotinus, African-American philosophy, the eastern negative theology, in the Sufism of lbn Arabi, in the holistic spirit of Giordano Bruno and Meister Eckhart, in monadology of Leibniz, in the Absolute Idea of Hegel and Shelling, e.t.
All ancient spiritual traditions suggest that the world is a unity and the multiplicity is only apparent. Modern science claims that the visible world of matter and the multiplicity is only apparent, the reality is unseen and invisible. Since different roads the mysticism and the rationalism lead to the same view, the view of the open totality of the world. The mystical insight of spirituality and the rational mind of science leading to the open thought, the wisdom of life. The spiritual experience of oneness conduces to the same insight as reasoning through science. Both convey the insight of fundamental interconnection between ourselves, other people, other forms of life, the biosphere and, ultimately, the universe. Science and spirituality, far from being mutually exclusive and conflicting elements, are complementary partners in the search for the path that can enable humanity to recover its oneness with the world. Science demonstrates the urgent and objective need for it; and spirituality testifies to its inherent value and supreme desirability. We can reason to our oneness in the world, and we can experience our oneness with the world. The time has come to do both, for they are complementary and mutually reinforcing.
Presents a revolutionary new paradigm of Cosmic Thought that bridges the divide between science and spirituality. Discloses the ramifications of non-localized consciousness and how the physical world and spiritual experience are two aspects of the same Cosmos. What scientists are now finding at the outermost frontiers of every field is overturning all the basic premises concerning the nature of matter and reality.The essays on this book are the notes from the international e – learning courses that were given by the philosopher, and author Alexis Karpouzos during the winter of 2014. Students studying in London, Amsterdam, Berlin and Paris took part in the courses, which were held by the educational and cultural center "Alexis karpouzos community", located in Athens
