The aim of this study is to examine the biblical commentaries of Andrew of St. Victor, abbot of Wigmore (d.1175), and to pay particular attention to his Jewish sources. Andrew wrote commentaries on most of the books of the Old Testament. His work can be divided into three groups: commentaries on the historical books, written before 1147; interpretations of the prophetical books, written shortly after c.1134; and his exposition of the Song of Songs, Proverbs and Ecclesiastes, written before 1161 or 1163. Ever since Miss Smalley's articles in the Rech.Théol.anc.méd. of 1938 and 1939 and her book, The Study of the Bible in the Middle Ages, the importance of Andrew as a commentator has been recognized, but the fact that his works exist in manuscript form only, apart from his commentaries on Ecclesiastes and Jonah, has prevented his writings from becoming more widely known. For this reason I originally intended to prepare an edition of a commentary on one of the Pentateuchal books. However, as it became clear that an edition would lose much of its value without an examination of the sources Andrew used, I decided to concentrate on the latter. The large number of his commentaries made it necessary, all the same, to select one or two for special study. The interpretations of Exodus and Isaiah were chosen, first because they were written during different periods of Andrew's life, thus making it possible to follow any changes in his exegetical method; and secondly because the different contents of these books present their commentators with different problems.

The concentration photovoltaics (CPV) application promises to produce lower price electricity with less semiconductor usage in comparison with the common flat plate PV module. The compound parabolic concentrator (CPC) shows great potential in both economics and efficiency in low the concentration photovoltaics (LCPV) system because it does not require a tracking system and is able to concentrate light with a large incident angle range. A detailed investigation has previously been carried out regarding the novel CPC module purposed (Su et al., 2012a). The validation of the experiment shows the Lens-Walled CPC gives a superior optical and electrical performance compared with other CPCs. Non-uniform light distribution is a common issue with all CPC designs as it has a major influence on the concentration of solar cell performance. In order to study the effects of non-uniform distributed light on solar cell behavior in-depth, two simulation approaching methods including array modelling and finite element modelling (FEM) were carried out. Both simulation approaches observed a reduction in the solar cell fill factor (FF) under non-uniform distributed light. The high resistive losses in the cell are the main cause of this phenomenon. Three simulation models with different cell grid designs were studied to further study the influence of non-uniform distributed light. The light profiles from three different CPCs were implemented with the FEM model. The result shows although solid CPC has the highest current output in a certain condition, the Lens-Walled CPC has the most uniform light distribution, which reduces the influence from non-uniform light distribution to solar cell performance.
