Harmonics and Power Systems By Francisco De La Rosa 2006 | 190 Pages | ISBN: 0849330165 | PDF | 9 MB Harmonics have always been a problem with industrial loads, but now more and more consumer and commercial power loads are cropping up as sources of harmonic currents. Approaching the problem from both utility and end-user perspectives, Harmonics and Power Systems addresses the most relevant aspects in the generation and propagation of harmonic currents in electrical networks. Grounded in years of practical experience working and teaching in the electric, oil, and steel industries in several countries to address the harmonics problem, De La Rosa elucidates the concepts and equations with worked examples and various illustrations generated using current industrial software tools. From a general overview of the principles and equations used to describe and analyze harmonic currents to the fundamentals of power losses in harmonic environments, this field-tested book offers detailed coverage of passive harmonic filters, harmonic propagation analysis, and alternatives to filtering. The author provides a clear-cut procedure for evaluating harmonic current propagation and assessing their penetration into electrical networks. He also discusses the most important and widely used industry standards to control harmonic distortion levels. Recognizing the diversity of power networks, this book examines the role of specific characteristics of various types of networks. Harmonics and Power Systems is an easy-to-follow, practical introduction for novices and a useful problem-solving tool for seasoned professionals. Hands-On Vision and Behavior for Self-Driving Cars: Explore visual perception, lane detection, and object classification with Python 3 and OpenCV 4 by Luca Venturi English | 2020 | ISBN: 1800203586 | 374 Pages | PDF MOBI EPUB | 41 MB Guide to Bushcraft Skills: Bushcraft is wilderness survival skills. It is about thriving in the natural environment, and the acquisition of the skills and knowledge to do so. by Vincent Bronson English | January 8, 2021 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B08SGWD1YL | 46 pages | MOBI | 0.18 Mb Bushcraft is wilderness survival skills. It is about thriving in the natural environment, and the acquisition of the skills and knowledge to do so. Bushcraft skills include firecraft, tracking, hunting, fishing, shelter-building, navigation by natural means, the use of tools such as knives and axes, foraging, water sourcing, hand-carving wood, container construction from natural materials, and rope and twine-making, among others.The term was popularized in the Southern Hemisphere by Les Hiddins (the Bush Tucker Man) as well as in the Northern Hemisphere by Mors Kochanski and more recently gained considerable currency in the United Kingdom due to the popularity of Ray Mears and his bushcraft and survival television programs. It is also becoming popular in urban areas where the average person is separated from nature, as a way to get back in tune with their rural roots.[citation needed] The origin of the phrase "bushcraft" comes from skills used in the bush country of Australia. Often the phrases "wilderness skills" or "woodcraft" are used as they describe skills used all over the world.Bushcraft is about living in the outdoor environment, in the wild, using knowledge and the natural resources around you to sustain yourself over a prolonged period. But the concept goes beyond mere survival - it's about thriving, being comfortable in nature. On the other hand, bushcraft has fewer creature comforts and links to civilisation than recreational camping - the more you bring with you, the less you're doing bushcraft and the more you're camping. The difference is really about how sustainably you can live outdoors.The essential tasks of bushcraft are obtaining potable water, fire lighting, making shelter and getting and preparing food, which encompasses a range of skills such as flintknapping, firecraft, finding food & water, hunting, fishing, making shelters, rope & cord making, skins & hides, tracking, natural navigation, basketry, leatherwork, and much more.Quite a large bushcraft movement has developed (more so in the UK and the US than in mainland Europe) from different sources. First there were the survivalists, the most famous of whom was probably Lofty Wiseman, and then the Bush Tucker Man, focusing on food, followed by Ray Mears, whose thoughtful, ecological approach brought bushcraft into millions of living rooms and made it extremely popular. The three main perspectives are probably (still) survivalism; then the Ray Mears / ecological approach; and finally the spiritual / Native American path.

Jonathan Lear, "Freud, 2nd Edition" English | 2015 | ISBN: 0415831806, 0415831792 | 260 pages | EPUB | 2.52 MB In this fully updated second edition, the author clearly introduces and assesses all of Freud's thought, focusing on those areas of philosophy on which Freud is acknowledged to have had a lasting impact. These include the philosophy of mind, free will and determinism, rationality, the nature of the self and subjectivity, and ethics and religion. He also considers some of the deeper issues and problems Freud engaged with, brilliantly illustrating their philosophical significance: human sexuality, the unconscious, dreams, and the theory of transference. The author's approach emphasizes the philosophical significance of Freud's fundamental rule - to say whatever comes to mind without censorship or inhibition. This binds psychoanalysis to the philosophical exploration of self-consciousness and truthfulness, as well as opening new paths of inquiry for moral psychology and ethics. |
