This paper presents a current converter that uses an inductor based approach for interim energy storage.A family of the circuits for step down conversion is examined for both non-inverting and inverting operations.The paper has disclosed the method of the generation, so that any order of 1/n Teething Wafers conversion ratio can be made.One of the f
Between censorship and business: the industry of narcocorrido and the new Mexican regional music
This text offers a study about different positions and media reactions around the growing popularity of drug traffic and violence music.The so called narcocorrido, with roots in the musical cultures of the border region between Mexico and the United States, becomes a evidence of the violence associated with criminal activities.But, taking advantage
Evaluation of unique identifiers used for citation linking [version 1; referees: 1 approved, 2 approved with reservations]
Unique identifiers (UID) are seen as an effective tool to create links between identical publications in databases or identify duplicates in a database.The purpose of the present study is to investigate how well UIDs work for citation linking.We have two objectives: Explore the coverage, precision, and characteristics of publications matched versus
Low-Altitude, Overcooled Scree Slope: Insights into Temperature Distribution Using High-Resolution Thermal Imagery in the Romanian Carpathians
Advective heat fluxes (chimney effect) in porous debris facilitate ground cooling on scree slopes, even at low altitudes, and promote the occurrence of sporadic permafrost.The spatial distribution of ground surface temperature on an overcooled, low-altitude scree slope in the Romanian Carpathians was analyzed using UAV-based infrared thermography i
