Esta tese apresenta uma história do conceito balance of power. Com base na abordagem Begriffsgeschichte, busca-se compreender como um dado espaço de experiência e um dado horizonte de expectativas foram constituídos através desse conceito. O argumento está organizado em duas partes. Na primeira o objetivo é compreender a emergência desse conceito em meio à crise que se seguiu à desagregação da ordem medieval. É possível identificar neste período aquilo que pode ser chamado de corolário anti-imperial. Essa dimensão axiológica precisa ser considerada nessa história como referência para o surgimento desse conceito no vocabulário político. Na segunda parte será examinada a fixação desse termo na linguagem internacional corrente. Um elemento que contribuiu para isso e que será examinado foi a existência de uma sociabilidade comercial como parte do mundo político. Além disso, essa fixação traz consigo um corolário conservador que se relaciona a uma concepção específica de funcionamento da política internacional. Por fim, os capítulos dessa parte apresentarão uma discussão sobre o componente temporal de balance of power com especial destaque para a afirmação de que esse conceito funciona como um regulador ontológico da história. Do ponto de vista temporal, o argumento desta tese lida com um período que vai, basicamente, dos séculos XIII ao século XIX.
This dissertation aims at offering a history of the concept balance of power. Drawing on the Begriffsgeschichte, I will try to understand how a given space of experience and a given horizon of expectations have been constituted through this concept. The argument is divided into two parts. In the first part the aim is to understand how the concept emerged out of the collapse of the Medieval order. It is possible to identify in this period what will be called an anti-imperial corollary. This very axiological dimension needs to be contemplated as a reference to the appearance of this term in the political lexicon. In the second part the fixation of the concept in the current international language will be examined. An element that brought about this process and that will be analysed was the presence of a commercial sociability as part of the political realm. Furthermore, the fixation is related to a conservative corollary which elicits a specific conception of the functioning of international politics. Last but not least, the chapters in this part will present a discussion of the temporal dimension of balance of power with special attention to the claim that this concept works as an ontological regulator of history. From the temporal point of view, the argument of this dissertation deals with a period that goes from the 13th to the 19th century.

This thesis describes the use of the power balance method for performance estimation of aircraft configurations. In this method, mechanical power production and mechanical power consumption of the aircraft are balanced, rather than forces as in the conventional thrust and drag approach to aircraft performance estimation. It is shown that an approach based on mechanical power provides a substantial advantage in accuracy and a wider range of applicability for integrated configurations such as boundary layer ingesting (BLI) aircraft. The thesis provides evidence of the major benefits of the power balance method, and descriptions of its limitations, for three applications: 1) derivation of an analytic expression of profile drag estimates for conceptual design applications, 2) aerodynamic performance estimation for three canonical integrated configurations, and 3) performance quantification of a hybrid wing body (HWB) with BLI propulsion system. In the first application, an analytical expression for the form factor used in the wetted area method (a profile drag correlation employed in conceptual design, which is heavily based on empiricism) is derived from the power balance method. The developed estimation method uses only potential-flow surface velocities, and it can be applied to new geometries for which experimental drag data is not available. The accuracy of this analytical expression and its limitations are presented in terms of quantitative results and analysis of physical effects for two-dimensional and axisymmetric geometries in incompressible and transonic flows. In the second application, the mechanical energy loss is evaluated for three integrated configurations: a fuselage with a propelling fan at the rear, a nacelle-fan combination, and two interfering airfoils. Using the boundary layer mechanical energy equation, it is shown that the profile mechanical loss from potential field (pressure) interference scales according to ... The scaling is confirmed using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) calculations. The scaling is accurate to within 10% for configurations for which the average boundary layer kinematic shape parameter increases by no more than 0.04 from non-interfering to interfering configuration. The physical mechanisms responsible for the breakdown in accuracy are analyzed. The power balance method is also applied to a system-level optimization of fuel burn for an HWB with BLI propulsion system. The fuel burn of the HWB is shown to decrease monotonically with increasing BLI, lip to a maximuim fuel burn improvement of 11 % compared to a non-BLI aircraft.

Full textThe main objective of the thesis is the reliability increase of high voltage (600 V) power MOSFETS based in the Super Junction concept when they are submitted to the most extreme conditions in DC/DC converters and Factor Power Correction circuits and the intrinsic body diode has to handle a big amount of energy in a very short period of time. The research has been carried out in the framework of a collaboration between Institut de Microelectrònica de Barcelona (IMB-CNM-CSIC) and ON Semiconductor (Oudenaarde, Bèlgica). The process technology of the new Super Junction power MOSFET transistors designed in ON Semiconductor (named UltiMOS) has been optimized with the aim of robustness enhancement, which has to be totally independent of the charge balance in the device. The transistors are destined to 400 V line applications that require a voltage capability above 600 V and a minimal on-state resistance to operate at high frequency. The thesis starts with an introduction to the state of the art of Super Junction transistors, including a description of the different process technologies used in the commercial counterparts. Afterwards, the most relevant electrical and technological parameters are introduced and linked to the electrical characterization of the UltiMOS transistor. The research is centered in the study of the physics involved in the failure mechanisms combining TCAD simulations and experimental measurements, from where it is concluded that a technological solution to increase the energy capability of UltiMOS transistors is needed, with a wide CB manufacturability window. Different devices derived from the UltiMOS structure (conventional UMOS transistor, SJ Diodes and SJ Bipolar transistors) were fabricated in the ON Semiconductor’s Clean Room and tested under the same avalanche conditions as UltiMOS transistors. All the results derived from complementary techniques (Unclamped Inductive Switching, Emission Microscopy, Thermal Infrared Thermography, Transmission Line Pulse, Transient Interferometric Mapping, etc.) lead to the same conclusion: the current is focalized at a certain region of the UltiMOS transistor, enhancing the activation of the parasitic bipolar transistor. Two approaches are proposed to increase the energy capability of UltiMOS transistors and, once its efficiency has been demonstrated, they have been included on the process technology of the device designed to go into production.

Full textOver one–third of Americans over the age of 65 fall each year, costing more than $19 billion in health care costs in 2000. Many adults 65+ who have not experienced a fall still fear falling, and fear can decrease quality of life and increase the likelihood of falls. Several factors such as muscle strength, power, stiffness and tendon properties change in the human body with age affecting balance, which has been tagged as a fall risk predictor. Additionally, balance recovery strategies also differ between young and older adults, with young adults primarily utilizing their ankle joint and older adults utilizing their hip. The role of passive ankle joint power in balance recovery is unknown. Therefore, we conducted three studies. In Study 1, we investigated the role of passive ankle joint power in balance recovery of young subjects and tested if the contribution of passive power to net ankle joint power changed with perturbation speed. In Study 2, we explored the factor of age in the contribution of passive ankle joint power to net ankle joint power. In Study 3, we searched for a link between the contribution of passive ankle joint power to net ankle joint power and balance recovery strategy. Passive joint torque through the full range of motion was collected for each subject. Each subject performed 5 stepping tasks at two speeds, fast and slow. Joint kinematics and kinetics were collected for each trial. Inverse dynamics were performed and net ankle joint torque and net ankle joint work were computed. Passive ankle joint torque models were optimized for each subject, and passive ankle joint powers were determined. In Study 1, there appeared to be no difference in net or passive joint powers with respect to perturbation speed. In Study 2, age affected net ankle joint powers and passive uniarticular plantar- and dorsiflexor powers. In Study 3, we noted a change in balance recovery strategy between young and older adults. We were unable to predict balance recovery strategy index based off of the percent contribution of passive ankle joint work to net ankle joint work. These studies bring greater clarity to the role of passive ankle joint power with respect to balance recovery.
Ribat, Jean-Bertrand. "Defeating systemic challengers| Coordination and the balance of power theory." Thesis, Indiana University, 2014. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3620162.
Full textUsing historical case studies I demonstrate that in the post-1494 European states-system, alliances could be formed to address the problem created by the presence of a potential hegemon only if there was a great power to coordinate and finance opposition to the challenger. This state's undertakings, as coordinator and financier, played a necessary but not sufficient role providing the means needed to address the collective action problem which, most of the times, interfered with the formation of an alliance. Not all states can fulfill the function of systemic coordinator. Only a great power with high levels of wealth and security, with spare resources to spend on allies, and with its political elite sharing the same foreign policy's goal--to contain or defeat the challenger--can be a coordinating state. It was only when there was an active coordinator in the European system that alliances were formed to deal with the destabilizing presence of a systemic challenger. Yet, the mere presence of an alliance never guaranteed that the challenger would not win. It was only when there was a coordinator with the capacity to provide directly and indirectly high amounts of additional-military-capacity that the alliance was successful. The amount of additional-military-capacity available is the result of the interaction of two independent variables, the amount of spare resources used by the leader of the coordinating state, and this leader's level of skills. The two-step model I build goes against the deterministic element located at the heart of the balance of power theory. Alliances were not necessarily formed and victorious as the theory states. It was the presence of a coordinator which made this double outcome possible. With the addition of the coordinator model, the balance of power theory becomes a powerful analytical tool at the disposal of IR specialists and statesmen.
