Equivalent Circuits for Practical Transformers01:28

Equivalent Circuits for Practical Transformers

1.4K
The practical equivalent circuits of single-phase two-winding transformers exhibit significant deviations from their idealized versions due to the inherent properties of winding resistance and finite core permeability. These properties result in real and reactive power losses, affecting the transformer's performance. Understanding these deviations is crucial for designing more efficient transformers.
In a practical transformer, each winding exhibits resistance and leakage reactance. The...

Lung Capacity01:47

Lung Capacity

56.2K
The air in the lungs is measured in volumes and capacities. Lung volume measures reflect the amount of air taken in, released, or left over after a lung function, like a single inhalation. Lung capacity measures are sums of two or more lung volume measures.

Self-Concept

1.6K
Self-concept is the cognitive and emotional understanding individuals hold about their identity. It evolves through various developmental stages, beginning in infancy and maturing as children grow. This concept influences how individuals perceive their abilities, interact with others, and manage challenges throughout life.
Infancy and Emerging Recognition
During infancy, self-concept is virtually nonexistent. Babies do not distinguish themselves as separate entities and often mistake their...

Concepts and Prototypes

The human nervous system handles vast amounts of information by translating sensory stimuli into neural impulses, which the brain processes, creating thoughts expressed through language or stored as memories. The brain also synthesizes information from emotions and memories, which significantly influence thoughts and behaviors. This intricate process creates a comprehensive mental picture.
The brain organizes this information using concepts, which are mental categories grouping linguistic data,...

Bacterial Transformation01:33

Bacterial Transformation

59.6K
In 1928, bacteriologist Frederick Griffith worked on a vaccine for pneumonia, which is caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae bacteria. Griffith studied two pneumonia strains in mice: one pathogenic and one non-pathogenic. Only the pathogenic strain killed host mice.
Griffith made an unexpected discovery when he killed the pathogenic strain and mixed its remains with the live, non-pathogenic strain. Not only did the mixture kill host mice, but it also contained living pathogenic bacteria that...

Area of Science:

  • Urban and Regional Planning
  • Sustainability Science
  • Resilience Studies

Background:

  • Urban transformations are central to global sustainability and resilience goals.
  • The specific capacities required for transformative urban change remain underexplored.
  • Existing efforts towards urban transformation lack a clear understanding of necessary capacities.

Discussion:

  • This special issue examines the concept of urban transformative capacity, integrating insights from seven empirical studies.
  • It explores how this relational concept can guide new research, policy, and practical interventions in urban development.
  • The analysis highlights the interconnectedness of social, institutional, and planning factors in achieving transformative change.

Key Insights:

  • Four key requirements for enhancing urban transformative capacity are identified: fostering inclusion and empowerment, bridging the gap between research and practice by strengthening local academia, fundamentally rethinking urban planning, and improving reflexivity through self-assessment tools.
  • Current levels of urban transformative capacity across diverse contexts are critically low.
  • There is a significant need to develop and implement strategies to build this capacity.

Outlook:

  • Elevating urban transformative capacity is a high-priority objective for all urban stakeholders.
  • Planning and research policy are identified as critical leverage points for fostering this development.
  • Future action should focus on implementing the identified requirements to accelerate sustainable and resilient urban futures.
