Optical Isolation For Audio Amplifiers, Matthew Young Jan 2010

Optical Isolation For Audio Amplifiers, Matthew Young

Honors Capstones

Audio amplifier power supplies have typically utilized power transformers to provide safety isolation from a wall outlet. These transformers provide ohmic disconnect between the power supply and the AC mains. The power transformer and its inherent weight and expense can be eliminated by implementing an off line rectified system for high voltage portions of the amplifier. An optical isolator circuit has been designed to allow audio signals to pass while providing the isolation necessary to protect users from a wall outlet power source short circuit. The optical isolator used to pass the input signal in this design is a Fairchild …


Tracking Stellar Activity Enhancements Due To A Close-In Giant Planet In The Hd 179949 System, Levent Gurdemir Jan 2010

Tracking Stellar Activity Enhancements Due To A Close-In Giant Planet In The Hd 179949 System, Levent Gurdemir

Physics Theses - Archive

We monitored CaII H and K lines (3933Å and 3968Å) of the HD 179949 system to study Planet Induced Emission (PIE) as an effect of star-planet interaction. We obtained high resolution spectra (R > 50,000) with high signal-to-noise ratio (S/N > 50 in the Ca II H and K cores) during 10 nights of observation at the McDonald Observatory. Wide band Echelle spectra covering full optical bandwidth (3,400-10,900Å) were obtained using 2.7 m Harlan J. Smith Telescope located at Mt. Locke. Detailed statistical analyses performed both for H and K cores of calcium to reveal the nature of the fluctuation in the …

Cs 790-01: Knowledge Representation For The Semantic Web, Pascal Hitzler Jan 2010

Cs 790-01: Knowledge Representation For The Semantic Web, Pascal Hitzler

Computer Science & Engineering Syllabi

Semantic Web is a maturing field of technology that continues to be the emphasis of much focused research and industrial investigation. The central idea behind Semantic Web is to enhance data on the World Wide Web by so-called metadata, which describes the meaning (semantics) of the data and thus makes it available for processing in intelligent systems. In this course we cover in depth the standardized knowledge representation languages for expressing metadata, called ontology languages. We will in particular cover the Resource Description Framework RDF and the Web Ontology Language OWL, both of which are recommended standards by the World …
