Three novel differential precision rectifier circuits are realized using single CMOS differential voltage current conveyor. One of the realized differential precision rectifiers provides half wave voltage output. The other two circuits give full wave voltage outputs. Among the two full wave differential precision rectifiers, one circuit provides single ended voltage output while other full wave...

Developmentally regulated delayed rectifier potassium currents determine the waveform of the action potential in all Xenopus embryonic primary spinal neurons. To examine this developmental program at the molecular level, we have isolated Xenopus Kv2 potassium channel genes Kv2.1 and Kv2.2. Both genes induce functional heterologous expression of delayed rectifier potassium currents. Transcripts ...

The pressure swing distillation in different batch column configurations is investigated by rigorous simulation calculations. The calculations are made by a professional flow-sheet simulator for the separation of a minimum (ethanol–toluene) and a maximum boiling (water– ethylene-diamine) azeotropic mixture. Besides studying the well known configurations (rectifier, stripper) we also investigate...

To date, classical mass renormalization has been invoked in all tube-based self-force calculations, thus following the method introduced in Dirac’s 1938 calculation of the electromagnetic self-force for the classical radiating electron. In this paper a new tube method is described that does not rely on a mass renormalization procedure. As a result, exact self-force calculations become possible ...

We address the quality of electrical contact between carbon nanotubes and metallic electrodes by performing first-principles calculations for the electron transmission through ideal 2- and 3-terminal junctions, thus revealing the physical limit of tube-metal conduction. The structural model constructed involves surrounding the tube by the metal atoms of the electrode as in most experiments; we ...

A zero-voltage, zero-current switching (ZVZCS) PWM DC-DC power converter with secondary active rectifier tested as a dc current source for arc welding is described in this paper. The soft switching DC-DC converter consists of high frequency inverter, high frequency power transformer and controlled output rectifier with new secondary energy recovery turn-off snubber. Circulating current in the c...

Euler-Lagrange (EL) model of voltage source PWM rectifier is set up based on its model in synchronous dq coordinates. Passivity based controller is designed on the basis of passivity and EL model of voltage source PWM rectifier. Three switching function are educed by passivity based controller. A switching function is only realized in engineering consequently. Voltage source PWM rectifier using...

The hydride distribution in a cracked Zircaloy cladding tube has been investigated by neutron radiography, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Hydrogen measurements. The crack occurred during handling in the spent fuel pool. Back Scattered Electron images showed some unexpected contrasts in zones with high hydrogen concentrations near cracks. This phase has been studied by SEM and EPMA. Afte...
