Book excerpt: In its front-page review of Alternating Current, The New York Times Book Review called Octavio Paz “an intellectual literary one-man band” for his ability to write incisively and with dazzling originality about a wide range of subjects. This collection of his essays is divided into three parts. Part 1 sets forth his credo as an artist and poet, steeped in his knowledge of world literature and Mexican art and history and buttressed by readings of writers from Mexican poet Luis Cernuda to D. H. Lawrence, Malcolm Lowry, André Breton, and Carlos Fuentes. Part 2 deals with themes such as Western individualism versus plurality and flux in Eastern philosophy, atheism versus belief, nihilism, liberated man, and versions of paradise. In Part 3, Paz writes of politics and ethics in essays on revolt and revolution, existentialism, Marxism, the third world, and the new face of Latin America. A scintillating thinker and a prescient voice on emerging world culture, Paz reveals himself here as “a man of electrical passions, paradoxical visions, alternating currents of thoughts, and feeling that runs hot but never cold” (Christian Science Monitor).

Download or read book The General Theory of Alternating Current Machines written by Bernard Adkins and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book on The General Theory of Electrical Machines, by B. Adkins, which was published in 1957, has been well received, as a manual containing the theories on which practical methods of calculating machine performance can be based, and as a text-book for advanced students. Since 1957, many important developments have taken place in the practical application of electrical machine theory. The most important single factor in the development has been the increasing availability of the digital computer, which was only beginning to be used in the solution of machine and power system problems in 1957. Since most of the recent development, particularly that with which the authors have been concerned, has related to a. c. machines, the present book, which is in other respects an up-to-date version of the earlier book, deals primarily with a. c. machines. The second chapter on the primitive machine does deal to some extent with the d. c. machine, because the cross-field d. c. generator servesas an introduction to the two-axis theory and can be used to provide a simple explanation of some of the mathematical methods. The equations also apply directly to a. c. commutator machines. The use of the word 'general' in the title has been criticized. It was never intended to imply that the treatment was comprehen sive in the sense that every possible type of machine and problem was dealt with.
Download or read book Intelligent Backstepping Control for the Alternating Current Drive Systems written by Jinpeng Yu and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-02-13 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the intelligent control design for both the induction motor (IM) and the permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). Compared with traditional control schemes, such as the field-oriented control (FOC) and the direct torque control (DTC), the intelligent controllers designed in this book could overcome the influence of parameter uncertainty and load torque disturbance. This book is a research monograph, which provides valuable reference material for researchers who wish to explore the area of AC motor. In addition, the main contents of the book are also suitable for a one-semester graduate course.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fundamental alternating current (AC) theory book, now in its second edition, offers a user-friendly approach and practical examples to keep industry professionals up-to-date. Designed to provide a thorough introduction to AC theory from its production, to its uses and circuitry; AC Theory, 2E uses the basics of direct current theory to explain the various facets of AC theory. The book begins by covering the primary components of AC circuits, such as resistors, inductors, and capacitors. The chapters that follow build upon the basic principles learned in these chapters, gradually introducing increasingly complex topics such as applying AC principles in power generation and generators, parallel and combination circuits, and more. With updated sidebars that provide a real-world context for the topics covered, users will develop strong connections between theory and applications, preparing them for work in the electrical field.

This book was released on 2023-02-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nikola Tesla was a genius who revolutionized how the world looks at electricity. During college his professors explained that it was impossible to design an engine without commutators or brushes. Tesla was unconvinced that such was necessary or even particularly desirable. It was then that Tesla began his work on the rotating field motor that ultimately gave birth to the modern age. In May of 1888 Tesla delivered his lecture "A New System of Alternating Current Motors and Transformers"

The book provides an important opportunity for students to learn the core concepts of physics and understand how those concepts apply to their lives and to the world around them. Due to the comprehensive nature of the material, we are offering the book in three volumes for flexibility and efficiency. Coverage and Scope Our University Physics textbook adheres to the scope and sequence of most two- and three-semester physics courses nationwide. We have worked to make physics interesting and accessible to students while maintaining the mathematical rigor inherent in the subject. With this objective in mind, the content of this textbook has been developed and arranged to provide a logical progression from fundamental to more advanced concepts, building upon what students have already learned and emphasizing connections between topics and between theory and applications. The goal of each section is to enable students not just to recognize concepts, but to work with them in ways that will be useful in later courses and future careers. The organization and pedagogical features were developed and vetted with feedback from science educators dedicated to the project.

Download or read book AC DC written by Tom McNichol and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-01-06 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AC/DC tells the little-known story of how Thomas Edison wrongly bet in the fierce war between supporters of alternating current and direct current. The savagery of this electrical battle can hardly be imagined today. The showdown between AC and DC began as a rather straightforward conflict between technical standards, a battle of competing methods to deliver essentially the same product, electricity. But the skirmish soon metastasized into something bigger and darker. In the AC/DC battle, the worst aspects of human nature somehow got caught up in the wires; a silent, deadly flow of arrogance, vanity, and cruelty. Following the path of least resistance, the war of currents soon settled around that most primal of human emotions: fear. AC/DC serves as an object lesson in bad business strategy and poor decision making. Edison's inability to see his mistake was a key factor in his loss of control over the ?operating system? for his future inventions?not to mention the company he founded, General Electric.
Download or read book Alternating Currents written by Sandro Ronca and published by Sandro Ronca. This book was released on 2024-04-13 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume exposes and develops the essential topics for understanding the physical foundations and calculation methods of alternating current circuits. The text is a useful tool for the acquisition of skills necessary for professionals as well as students of Electrical and Electronic Technologies, also representing a preparatory resource for university courses. Specifically, it is composed of the first six chapters of the larger work: "From Alternating Current to the Fourier Transform" and is recommended for those who intend to limit themselves to the study or review of only the aspects relating to the steady state of single-phase alternating current systems. The maximum possible self-sufficiency was one of the guiding elements in the conception of this work, with references and detailed explanations of the most critical aspects of the subject, with the aim of making the reader as autonomous as possible and quickly. Knowledge of the basic concepts relating to direct current networks and the possession of elementary notions of electromagnetism are considered prerequisites for tackling this text, but as regards the topic of alternating currents, as mentioned, the text is substantially self-sufficient. For each chapter there is a certain number of examples and for all there are verification problems. 1 SINUSOIDAL ELECTRICAL QUANTITIES 2 SINUSOIDS, PHASORS AND COMPLEX NUMBERS 3 IMPEDANCE AND REACTANCE 4 ADMITTANCE AND AC NETWORKS 5 RESONANCE 6 ELECTRICAL POWER IN AC SYSTEMS SANDRO RONCA After studying Physics at the University of Padua, he dedicated himself to teaching Electrical and Electronic Technologies and Computer Science at Technical and Technological Institutes, paying attention to the didactic aspects of the subject. He has studied computer networks in depth and designed, at the request of industrial associations, courses for systems engineers and IT security workers.
