Abstract:

Die vorliegende Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Untersuchung der institutionalisierten Beziehungen zwischen der NATO und Russland seit 1997 und konzentriert sich dabei besonders auf die Ergebnisse des „Permanent Council“ (PJC, 1997) und des „NATO-Russia Council“ (NRC, 2002). Das Vermächtnis von Strukturen, die während des kalten Krieges entstanden, beeinflusst weiterhin die Interaktionen zwischen der NATO und Russland. Dies wurde insbesondere während der Kosovo-Krise und nach dem 11. September 2001, welcher die „post-post-Cold War era“ einläutete, sichtbar. Das zentrale Kapitel der Disse

Abstract:

The work presented in this thesis contains an investigation into the methods by which the semiconductor device performance can be improved with an aim to reduce the overall losses in the power conversion system. The types of devices discussed and evaluated in this thesis include Silicon MOSFETs, IGBT, CIGBT and GaN HEMT devices. The performance improvement methods suggested in literature usually involve a trade-off of device characteristics with one another. Therefore an investigation into new device technologies and structures is deemed necessary such that the performance trade-off can be avo

Abstract:

The power requirements imposed on an active vibration isolation system are quite important to the overall system design. In order to improve the efficiency of an active isolation system we analyze different feedback control strategies which will provide electrical energy regeneration. The active isolation system is modeled in a state-space form for two different types of actuators: a piezoelectric stack actuator and a linear electromagnetic (EM) actuator. During regenerative operation, the power is flowing from the mechanical disturbance through the electromechanical actuator and its switching

Abstract:

The thesis in this essay states that Ántonia Shimerda and Lena Lingard in My Ántonia achieve a higher degree of woman emancipation because of their active response to prevailing power structures and that Cather uses the hardships and disappointments of these young women to highlight these power structures. Therefore, My Ántonia can be regarded as a novel taking a stand against patriarchal power structures. The primary text is My Ántonia by Willa Cather, which is analysed with the help of Foucault’s theory of power and Judith Butler’s gender theories. The essay discusses which power structures

Abstract:

High temperature superconductors (HTS) and solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) both offer the possibility for dramatic improvements in efficiency in power applications such as generation, transmission and use of electrical energy. However, production costs and energy losses prohibit widespread adoption of these technologies. This thesis investigates low-cost methods to tailor the structures of HTS wires and SOFCs to reduce these energy losses. Section I focusses on methods to produce filamentary HTS coated conductors that show reduced AC losses. This includes spark-discharge striation to pattern ex

Salman Rushdie’s The Satanic Versesis one of the most controversial postcolonial novels, which among a plethora of themes seems to mainly focus on the notion of hegemonic power. The Satanic Verses can partly be read as a denunciation of the British hegemony in which social injustice, racial discrimination and violence, in its different forms, exerted upon marginalized and stigmatized people (such as non-European expatriates) are legitimized by the dominant group and understood as something conventional and normal by the subjugated people.

Abstract:

A numerical method is described to study directional wave effects on large offshore structures of arbitrary shape, based on an extension of linear diffraction wave theory for regular waves. A computer program has been developed to compute loading transfer functions and response amplitude operators and hence the loading and response spectra for both long- and short-crested random waves. Cosine powered directional spreading functions which are independent of frequency have been used to account for the shortcrestedness of waves. Comparisions of the results for long- and short-crested seas show th

With the accelerated growth of slim consumer electronics has come the need to reduce the profile of all electronic components. Planar magnetics provide an excellent solution to this problem, where copper strip conductors and flattened planar magnetic cores allow for the height of the components to be severely decreased compared to traditional wire-wound components. Planar magnetics also provide more repeatable characteristics and easier manufacturability. The major design goals for planar windings are low resistance, predictable inductance, and acceptable capacitance. This work investigates th

To confirm these findings, computational simulations were performed on a full-scale turbine to obtain more accurate force coefficients considering full rotor-su

The search for a convenient connection between vibration patterns on a structure and the sound radiated from that structure is ongoing in structural acoustics literature.

Most choices for a basis in this situation exhibit strong coupling between the basis functions, but there is one choice which does not: Acoustic radiation modes are by definition the basis that orthogonalizes t
