The circuit shown in Figure 1 is often called a half-wave rectifier because the diode supposed to stay on for 50% of one cycle. However, that view untrue since on-duty ratio depends parameters.

A diode works for battery charging, as shown in Figure 1 . When we use an RF source excitation, the wiring inductance L matters. Let us consider how affects turn-on and -off operation. The voltage xmlns:xlink="htt...

In this paper, we present our contribution in INEX 2013 Social Book Search Track. This track aim to explore social information (users reviews, ratings, etc...) for the libraryThing and Amazon collections of real books. In our submissions for SBSTrack, we rerank books by combining the Sequential Dependence Model (SDM) and the use of social component that takes into account both ratings and helpf...
