In a well-known passage from the Eighteenth Brumaire Karl Marx famously formulates the role of Rome in the French Revolution as an instance of history repeating itself: " Men make their own history , but they do not make it just as they please; they do not make it under circumstances chosen by themselves, but under circumstances directly encountered, given and transmitted from the past. The tra...

Two solid-state bipolar Marx modulators are compared in terms of semiconductors overvoltage tolerance capability in abnormal operating conditions such as switching synchronization failure. Simulation results are presented for 4 stages of two Marx circuits using 500 V per stage with 1 kHz bipolar pulse repetition rate, with 5 μs pulse width and 10 μs relaxation time into resistive load.

a familiar criticism of kant, made by hegel and his followers, j .s. mill and others, is that there are no maxims that are in fact contradictory, as required for morality on kant's view. in this paper, i discuss the suggestion that our capacity for rational reflection itself implies universality, and that it is this universality that obliges us to act morally. i consider the idea that self...

This paper presents modelling and analysis of peaking switch used in Marx generator, such that the rise time of the pulse produced by the Marx generator is reduced substantially. Towards this FEMM ( Finite Element Methods Magnetics) software is used for the field modelling of the switch and MATLAB for circuit modelling to observe the rise time. The switch has to produce pulse with sub-nanosecon...

in this paper, we analysis the concept and importance of property rights in classical and institutional economic thought schools. in doing so, we analysis the thoughts of luck, adam smith, say, ricardo, malthus, mill, marx, engels, marshal (some classical economists), coase, demsetz, north, and dosoto (some new institutional economists). the results of the paper revealed that: 1) classical econ...
