This paper introduces a novel two transistors forward topology employing a z-source to achieve ZVZCS and power transformer resetting for various applications. Comparing with the forward converter, this topology has the advantage of displaying ZCS condition with an added Z-Source and no additional switches when the switches turn on, and that ZVS condition happens when the switches turn off.

1-800-226-6113 to cover gifts from patients as well. There is no problem with taking the occasional plate of cookies or handknitted scarf from a grateful patient, but anything more elaborate or expensive should generally be subject to the same discrimination as gifts from employees. Occasionally, employees will innocently accept a gift that exceeds corporate gift limits because they are unfamil...

conclusions the essential principles of health in iranian medicine were not only stated in quran, but also were emphasized. results six major classifications such as “life environment”, “food”, spiritual status”, “physical activity”, “sleeping and awaking”, “excretion and retention”, and four minor classifications such as” climates”, “seasons”, “sexual intercourse” and “menstruation” were adopt...

death was determined by means of multiple independent neurologic examinations, including one ordered by a court. Her family refused to accept that she had died and went to court to prevent physicians at Children’s Hospital and Research Center in Oakland from discontinuing ventilator support. Per a court-supervised agreement, the body was given to the family 3 weeks after the initial determinati...

We investigate the average-case state and transition complexity of deterministic and nondeterministic finite automata, when choosing a finite language of given maximum word length n uniformly at random. The case where all words are of equal length is also taken into account. It is shown that almost all deterministic finite automata accepting finite languages over a binary input alphabet have st...

We have examined 35 mutants that have defects in general chemotaxis. Genetic analysis of these mutants resulted in the identification of at least eight che genes located at six different positions on the Caulobacter crescentus chromosome. The cheR, cheB and cheT genes appeared to be located in a three-gene cluster. Mutations in these three genes resulted in the inability of the flagellum to rev...

in spite of a general commonsensical understanding of justice, the plurality of the considerations that are involved in its social applications has subjected the air of justice discourse to confusion. the question is whether the term justice is used univocally in such various domains as law, politics, and economy and whether semantic patterns of justice such as granting right, observing compete...

without general principles, no system of law is conceivable. these principles have special position not only in domestic but also in international law. general principles would have been invoked even though those principles were not cited as the sources of international law in accordance with the statute of icj, article 38. those are taken into account as the independent source of international...
