Book excerpt: Power Circuits is an alliance between two alternative lifestyles: polyamory, or multiple open and honest romantic relationships; and power dynamics, relationships that choose to be consciously and deliberately unequal in power, such as dominant/submissive or master/slave. Both lifestyles are on the cutting-edge frontiers of romantic and sexual relating, and for a long time practitioners of both have found little sympathy in either camp. This is the first book of its kind that navigates the waters of effective polyamory and power exchanges, with many essays from the brave practitioners who swim there.

Download or read book Transient Analysis of Electric Power Circuits Handbook written by Arieh L. Shenkman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-01-16 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every now and then, a good book comes along and quite rightfully makes itself a distinguished place amongthe existing books of the electric power engineering literature. This book by Professor Arieh Shenkman is one of them. Today, there are many excellent textbooks dealing with topics in power systems. Some of them are considered to be classics. However, many of them do not particularly address, nor concentrate on, topics dealing with transient analysis of electrical power systems. Many of the fundamental facts concerning the transient behavior of electric circuits were well explored by Steinmetz and other early pioneers of electrical power engineering. Among others, Electrical Transients in Power Systems by Allan Greenwood is worth mentioning. Even though basic knowledge of tr- sients may not have advanced in recent years at the same rate as before, there has been a tremendous proliferation in the techniques used to study transients. Theapplicationofcomputerstothestudyoftransientphenomenahasincreased both the knowledge as well as the accuracy of calculations. Furthermore, the importance of transients in power systems is receiving more and more attention in recent years as a result of various blackouts, brownouts, and recent collapses of some large power systems in the United States, and other parts of the world. As electric power consumption grows exponentially due to increasing population, modernization, and industrialization of the so-called third world, this topic will be even more important in the future than it is at the present time.

Download or read book Power Circuits and Electromechanics written by M. A. Pai and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Power Circuits and Electromechanics is intended to serve as a one semester introductory course in power circuits and electromechanical energy conversion. In many curricula, the traditional circuit theory course is being replaced by a course in analog processing. The students should have basic exposure to KCL, KVL and simple circuits as well as a course in field theory or electromagnetism before taking this course. The book is basically in three modules. The first module covers complex power in single and three phase circuits, analysis of magnetic circuits, mutually coupled circuits and single phase transformers. The second module, drawing upon the quasi-static approximation of magnetic field equations, develops the concepts of electromechanical energy conversion, forces of electric origin leading to the dynamics equations of motion of the electromechanical system. A brief introduction to state space modeling, static equilibrium and stability is included. The third module discusses in the energy, co-energy framework, the torque of electric origin in synchronous, induction and DC machines. In each case, the equivalent circuit for the machine for steady state operation is developed for analysis purposes. A brief discussion of single phase motors is presented at the end.
Download or read book Fluid Power Circuits and Controls written by John S. Cundiff and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-12-05 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fluid Power Circuits and Controls: Fundamentals and Applications, Second Edition, is designed for a first course in fluid power for undergraduate engineering students. After an introduction to the design and function of components, students apply what they’ve learned and consider how the component operating characteristics interact with the rest of the circuit. The Second Edition offers many new worked examples and additional exercises and problems in each chapter. Half of these new problems involve the basic analysis of specific elements, and the rest are design-oriented, emphasizing the analysis of system performance. The envisioned course does not require a controls course as a prerequisite; however, it does lay a foundation for understanding the extraordinary productivity and accuracy that can be achieved when control engineers and fluid power engineers work as a team on a fluid power design problem. A complete solutions manual is available for qualified adopting instructors.

Download or read book Extreme Low Power Mixed Signal IC Design written by Armin Tajalli and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-09-14 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Design exibility and power consumption in addition to the cost, have always been the most important issues in design of integrated circuits (ICs), and are the main concerns of this research, as well. Energy Consumptions: Power dissipation (P ) and energy consumption are - diss pecially importantwhen there is a limited amountof power budgetor limited source of energy. Very common examples are portable systems where the battery life time depends on system power consumption. Many different techniques have been - veloped to reduce or manage the circuit power consumption in this type of systems. Ultra-low power (ULP) applications are another examples where power dissipation is the primary design issue. In such applications, the power budget is so restricted that very special circuit and system level design techniquesare needed to satisfy the requirements. Circuits employed in applications such as wireless sensor networks (WSN), wearable battery powered systems [1], and implantable circuits for biol- ical applications need to consume very low amount of power such that the entire system can survive for a very long time without the need for changingor recharging battery[2–4]. Using newpowersupplytechniquessuchas energyharvesting[5]and printable batteries [6], is another reason for reducing power dissipation. Devel- ing special design techniques for implementing low power circuits [7–9], as well as dynamic power management (DPM) schemes [10] are the two main approaches to control the system power consumption. Design Flexibility: Design exibility is the other important issue in modern in- grated systems.
