Control, Modulation, and Protection Strategies for Modular Multilevel Converters in Smart AC and DC Grids Applications
DownloadFall 2017
The technical viability of the modular multilevel converter (MMC) technology for a wide range of applications from low- to high-voltage systems has resulted in the rapid deployment of these converters in smart ac and dc grids. The features that MMCs offer, including common dc-link, modularity,...

Diagenetic Controls on Hydrothermal Fluid Flow in the Osiris, Isis, and Isis East Carlin-Type Gold Showings, Nadaleen Trend, Yukon
DownloadFall 2015
Following ATAC Resources Ltd.’s 2010 discovery of the gold prospects in the Nadaleen Trend (Central Yukon), company geologists and consultants determined that Precambrian carbonate rocks within the trend contain large endowments of gold located in the hinges of anticlines and fault zones. ...

Effects of Negative Valve Overlap on HCCI Combustion and its use in the Control of HCCI Combustion Timing
DownloadFall 2014
Homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) combustion can produce higher efficiencies and lower emissions when compared to tradition spark or compression ignition engines. This study reports an experimental investigation into the effects of valve timings on HCCI combustion conditions. Using a...

Latino Immigrant Parents in Canada: Experiences and Adjustment to raising Children in the Absence of the Extended Family
DownloadFall 2013
The Latino population in Canada has been increasing during the past decade accounting for 11% of newcomers in 2011. One of the core values in Latino culture is familism, the family is the main source of support and has an important role in childrearing. This qualitative study focuses on the...
