Advanced Integrated Single-Stage Power Factor Correction Techniques

Zhang, Jindong 10 April 2001 (has links)
This dissertation presents the in-depth study and innovative solutions of the advanced integrated single-stage power-factor-correction (S2PFC) techniques, which target at the low- to medium-level power supplies, for wide range of applications, from power adapters and computers to various communication equipment. To limit the undesirable power converter input-current-harmonic's impact on the power line and other electronics equipment, stringent current harmonic regulations such as IEC 61000-3-2 have already been enforced. The S2PFC techniques have been proposed and intensively studied, in order to comply these regulations with minimal additional component count and cost. This dissertation provides a systematic study of the S2PFC input-current-shaping (ICS) mechanism, circuit topology generalization and variation, bulk capacitor voltage stress and switch current stress, converter design and optimization, and evaluation of the state-of-the-art S2PFC techniques with universal-line input. Besides, this presentation also presents the development of novel S2PFC techniques with a voltage-doubler-rectifier front end to both improve the performance and reduce the cost of S2PFC converters for (international voltage range) universal-line applications. The calculation and experimental results show that the proposed techniques offer a more cost-effective and efficient solution than industries' current practice, with universal-line input and converter power level up to 600 W. Finally, further improved technique is also presented with reduced filter inductor size and increased power density. / Ph. D.

Theatrical Ideology: Toward a Rhetoric Theatricality

Robertson, Jacob L. 20 March 2009 (has links) (PDF)
When used in common vernacular, the terminology of the medium of theatre—"theatricality," "drama," "performance," "acting," "scene," etc."”form a vocabulary of "ideographs" as defined by Michael Calvin McGee. My analysis reveals that common usage of theatrical terms is more than merely metaphorical; the "theatre," rather, is a fundamental orienting concept for defining lived experience—it is ideology. By viewing the use of theatrical language as ideological, and analyzing how such terms define situations rhetorically, we begin to reveal the underlying ideology upon which the medium of theatre operates, and which it unconsciously conveys. I demonstrate this claim by analyzing the argument made by the stage image (an example, I argue, of a theatrical ideograph) in a cinematic context. I examine the filmed record of John Gielgud's 1964 Broadway production of Hamlet, released theatrically as Richard Burton's Hamlet, and Kenneth Branagh's 1996 cinematic adaptation of Hamlet. I conclude by discussing how theatrical ideology should inform a re-evaluation of spectacle generally, as well as discussions in mass media, politics, and the public sphere.

Accompagnement de stagiaires dans le milieu de travail en contexte d’alternance en formation professionnelle au Québec

Roy, Sandra January 2015 (has links)
Pour qu’une stratégie de formation comme l’alternance travail-études mène à la réussite du parcours de formation et à l’insertion de l’apprenant en milieu professionnel, elle nécessite une collaboration étroite entre les acteurs et leur engagement dans le projet de formation. Pourtant, peu de recherches actuelles sur l’alternance au Québec nous renseignent sur l’un de ces acteurs, le formateur en entreprise. Cette thèse avait donc pour objectif de caractériser la relation, le rôle et les fonctions de même que les visées de l’accompagnement du formateur en entreprise lors du stage en milieu de travail. La notion d’accompagnement (Paul, 2003) comme les concepts de situation professionnelle (Savoyant, 1979) et d’alternance (Clénet et Demol, 2002) soutiennent notre étude multicas. L’analyse d’entrevues et d’observations en situation, dans une approche inductive délibératoire, montre l’instauration d’une relation professionnelle et de confiance entre le stagiaire et le formateur, dont les visées sont tantôt axées sur l’acquisition de compétences liées aux fonctions de travail (par du coaching), tantôt sur le développement de savoirs, de savoir-faire et sur l’intégration au milieu (par du tutorat). Parmi les modalités de participation au travail offertes par le formateur ressortent clairement les opérations de guidage de l’activité. Bien que les opérations d’exécution soient présentes et formatives, la forme la plus étroite de guidage se manifeste par des opérations de contrôle, souvent implicites. Les opérations d’orientation se traduisent par la démonstration et l’explication; elles font appel au questionnement du stagiaire, impliquant ainsi la réflexivité dans et après l’action effectuée. En plus de contribuer à enrichir les connaissances sur les formes d’accompagnement des acteurs en entreprise, déterminants pour le développement d’une main-d’œuvre qualifiée en adéquation avec les besoins du marché du travail québécois, nos conclusions ouvrent à des perspectives de formation continue centrées sur la concertation et la complémentarité des milieux éducatif et productif.
