Access to Finance and Innovation in the Canadian Food Processing

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Innovation is a presumed channel through which finance affects productivity, yet there is limited research testing the relationship between finance and innovation in the food manufacturing sector. The purpose of the paper is to explore the determinants (e.g., financing, R&D, firm size, expenditure on innovation) of the adoption of innovation ...

Mathematical simulation of power conditioning systems. Volume 1: Simulation of elementary units. Report on simulation methodology [PDF]

open access: yes
Methods and algorithms used for the simulation of elementary power conditioning units buck, boost, and buck-boost, as well as shunt PWM are described. Definitions are given of similar converters and reduced parameters. The various parts of the simulation

Vendor Types, Attendance, Experience and Sales 2019–2021: Evidence From Five Rural Oregon Farmers Markets

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Farmers markets provide a direct‐to‐consumer marketing path for farmers and small businesses, facilitating customer discovery and product refinement. This paper explores farmers markets as a business incubator, with a focus on beginning vendors and resilience to a shock, namely, COVID‐19 market restrictions.

Microcontroller Based Buck Boost Converter

open access: yesJournal of Applied Engineering & Technology (JAET), 2018
Pakistan’s Energy infrastructure is not well developed, rather it is considered to be underdeveloped and poorly managed. Currently the country is facing severe energy crisis. Despite of strong economic growth and rising energy demand during past decade, no serious efforts have been made to install new capacity of generation.

A new optimum topology switching DC-to-DC converter [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
A novel switching dc-to-dc converter is presented, which has the same general conversion property (increase or decrease of the input dc voltage) as does the conventional buck-boost converter, and which offers through its new optimum topology higher ...

Is Youth's Engagement in Agribusiness an Opportunity or a Necessity? A Closer Look at the Situation in South Kivu, Eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite the broad focus on necessity‐ and opportunity‐driven entrepreneurship in research and policy, the entrepreneurial dichotomy within the agribusiness context has not been adequately addressed. This study contributes to closing this knowledge gap by examining youth's perceptions of agribusiness through the lens of the push‐pull motivation

Modified Fourth-Order Buck-Boost Converter

open access: yesWSEAS TRANSACTIONS ON ELECTRONICS, 2020
Some hundred DC/DC converters have been constructed. Here a modified one is investigated. The modification consists in the position of the output capacitor. This does not change the voltage transformation ratio, but leads to constant input current compared to a pulsating one in the original topology.

Who Are the Farmers Participating in a Carbon Sequestration Program? Results of a Discrete Choice Experiment in Germany

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agricultural soils offer great potential for carbon sequestration through humus formation. One way to motivate farmers to build up humus is through humus programs. These are still at an early stage of development, poorly explored, and the number of participating farmers is low. Our aim is to explain the heterogeneity of farmers' willingness to

Regenerative braking using buckboost converter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A Buck Boost converter circuit has been designed and simulated to drive a dc motor for an electric vehicle. The design consists of an IGBT Buck-Boost converter, the battery pack in the Buck side and a capacitor in the Boost side. The main battery has the

Li-Ion cell-to-cell active balancing battery management system for 2nd life applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The institute of energy systems has developed an active balancing battery management system (BMS) prototype for up to 8 cells in series. It is capable of equalizing charge imbalances in 7SxP (Li-NMC, Li-NCA) or 8SxP (LiFePO4) battery systems.
