1. Run-Up Transient Analysis for Salient Pole Wound Field Synchronous Motors : Field winding and power electronics implications for a smoother and cooler asynchronous start
Sammanfattning : Salient Pole Wound Field Synchronous Machines have better efficiency at full load than asynchronous machines of the same capability. Moreover, where asynchronous machines need inherently to draw a magnetizing current from the grid, Salient Pole Wound Field Synchronous Machines can work efficiently at unity power factor. LÄS MER

It focuses on the question of the role of different types of welfare states in the social rights of elderly immigrants and their power resources. Despite changes that have occurred during the post-war period, the situation of immigrants can nonetheless be problematic. LÄS MER
5. Upscaling, Training, Commoning
Sammanfattning : When on September 15, 2008 the financial conglomerate Lehman Brothers files for bankruptcy – and with that ‘officially’ sparks the international financial crisis – still few would anticipate the invasive effect this crisis would come to have on the professional and personal life of many across the world. Today, it’s implosion remains a mere ‘blip’ in the universe of events that followed. LÄS MER
