A swell produced by the Hurricane Omar touched the west Guadeloupean coasts during the period of the 15 to the 17 in October 2008. The waves of this swell hit different islands of the Greater and Lesser Antilles arc. The cost of the destruction of this swell was evaluated at $ 46 million. On the island of Basse-Terre in the archipelago of Guadeloupe all the exposed zone, the quiet west coast wa...

1. It is possible to fractionate gelatin by means of reprecipitation at 23 degrees C. of a salt-free solution of pH 4.7 into two fractions, one of which is soluble in water at any temperature, and a second one which does not dissolve in water even when heated to 80 degrees C. 2. The proportion of the soluble fraction in gelatin is much greater than of the insoluble one. 3. The insoluble fractio...

This paper deals with conceptual study of unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) during voltage sag and swell on the power distribution network and researches profoundly on the coordinated control of UPQC (Unified Power Quality Conditioner). By analyzing the radical reasons of coupling effect between UPQC series unit and shunt unit, a simple and practical coordinated control strategy for UPQC...

Species ranges are mediated by physiology, environmental factors, and competition with other organisms. The allopatric distribution of five species of northern Californian pocket gophers (Thomomys spp.) is hypothesized to result from competitive exclusion. The five species in this environmentally heterogeneous region separate into two subgenera, Thomomys or Megascapheus, which have divergent di...

Abstract The FCC-ee machines present a huge challenge for the RF systems, which need to be adapted very diverse beam conditions going from moderate energy and high current Z machine low ttbar. This inverse scaling results naturally fixed budget synchrotron radiation, SRF cavities compensate. A global solution was elaborated FCC Conceptual Design Report (Abada in Eur Phys J Spec Top 228):261–623...
