IEEE Access, 2020 In a single-stage buck-boost quasi-switched boost inverter (qSBI), the shoot-through state insertion causes high amplitude common-mode voltage. Consequently, the qSBI becomes less attractive in transformerless photovoltaic (PV) systems.

Value of MRI Outcomes for Preventive and Early‐Stage Trials in Spinocerebellar Ataxias 1 and 3
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective To examine the value of MRI outcomes as endpoints for preventive and early‐stage trials of two polyglutamine spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs). Methods A cohort of 100 participants (23 SCA1, 63 SCA3, median Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) score = 5, 42% preataxic, and 14 gene‐negative controls) was scanned at 3T up ...

New Shoot-Through Control Methods for qZSI-Based DC/DC Converters
IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics, 2013 Shoot-through control methods for qZSI-based dc/dc converters are presented and studied. The major goal was to increase efficiency. A new modulation technique, pulse width modulation (PWM) with shifted shoot-through, is compared with the conventional PWM shoot-through control method. The new method reduces switching frequency of bottom side transistors

Strangeness and Quark--Gluon Plasma
, 2011 I review the foundational motivation which led us to the ultra relativistic heavy ion collision research at SPS, RHIC and now LHC: the quantum vacuum structure; the deconfined nature of quark-gluon plasma (QGP) phase filling the Universe for the first 30$

Diffusion‐Weighted Imaging for the Evaluation of the Sacroiliac Joint in Pediatric Patients
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Maturational signal in the sacroiliac joint (SIJ) of skeletally immature youth is often misinterpreted as inflammation. Diagnostic tools that improve specificity are greatly needed. Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values from diffusion‐weighted imaging (DWI), when used with standard imaging, may enhance diagnostic accuracy.

Large-signal stability conditions for semi-quasi-Z-source inverters: switched and averaged models
, 2013 The recently introduced semi-quasi-Z-source in- verter can be interpreted as a DC-DC converter whose input- output voltage gain may take any value between minus infinity and 1 depending on the applied duty cycle. In order to generate a sinusoidal voltage

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective We aimed to validate the Pediatric Arthritis Ultrasound Scoring System (PAUSS) for upper extremity joints in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Methods Children with JIA were evaluated for elbow, wrist, or finger arthritis by clinical examination (CE) and musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSUS) with images scored according to the ...
