The first treatment of advanced knowledge of electricalsneak circuits and its analysis method in powerelectronics The work on sneak circuit and its analysis methods for powerconverters contributes to the reliability of power electronicsystems worldwide. Most books in the subject concentrate onelectronic systems, but this book is perhaps the first to examinepower electronic systems. It describes the sneak circuitphenomena in power converters, introduces some SCA methods forpower electronic systems and proposes how to eliminate and make useof sneak circuits. The book is divided into three separatesections. Firstly, the sneak circuit paths and sneak circuitoperating conditions are discussed in different kinds of powerconverters, including resonant switched capacitor converters, basicDC-DC converters, soft-switching converters and Z-sourceconverters; Secondly, the sneak circuit analysis guidelinesfor power converters based on generalized matrix, adjacency matrixand Boolean matrix are presented respectively; Thirdly, thesneak circuit elimination techniques are introduced and verified inseveral power converters, with applications of sneak circuitsdescribed in conclusion. Written by a lead author withextensive academic and industrial experience, the book provides acomplete introduction and reference to students and professionalsalike. Contents include: Fundamental Concepts, SCA of Resonant SwitchedCapacitor Converters, SC of DC-DC Converters, SC Analysis Method(including Boolian Matrix), and Applications of SC in PowerConverters. * Highlights the advanced research works in the sneak circuitanalysis, by a leading author in the field * Original in its treatment of power electronics converters; mostother books concentrating on electronics systems, and aimed at bothintroductory and advanced levels * Offers guidelines for industry professionals involved in thedesign of power electronic systems, enabling early detection ofpotential problems Essential reading for Graduate students in ElectricalEngineering: Engineers and Researchers in Power Electronics

In Arctic Canada, Hudson Bay is a site of great exploration history, aboriginal culture, and a vast marine wilderness supporting large populations of marine mammals and birds. These include some of the most iconic Arctic animals like beluga, narwhal, bowhead whales, and polar bears. Due to the challenges of conducting field research in this region, some of the mysteries of where these animals move, and how they are able to survive in such seemingly inhospitable, ice-choked habitats are just now being unlocked. For example, are polar bears being replaced by killer whales? This new information could not be more salient, as the Hudson Bay Region is undergoing rapid environmental change due to global warming, as well as increased pressures from industrial development interests. A Little Less Arctic brings together some of the world’s leading Arctic scientists to present the current state of knowledge on the physical and biological characteristics of Hudson Bay.

The book analyzes export consortia from the strategic management perspective. It builds on an empirical analysis of nine export consortia promoted by UNIDO in developing countries between 2004 and 2007. The book is based heavily on actual export consortium experiences, in order to combine a rigorous research approach with a more pragmatic view of the phenomenon. The material will be of interest to a variety of readers. Scholars in the field of management represent the authors' primary target. The book includes a literature review which combines the topics of SME internationalization, strategic networks, and the issues which relate specifically to SME alliances in the form of export consortia. Entrepreneurs and executives will find useful business models and management tools for the successful design and implementation of export consortia. Insights into the functioning of export consortia may also be of interest to policy-makers and institutions that develop support programs for the growth of SMEs in developing countries.

<p>The first year of developing a new sales territory is a daunting task—especially in dog-eat-dog industries. The traditional advice is to train quickly on product, grab a customer list, start calling for appointments, discover opportunities, and close deals. In fact, almost every sales model out there is based on nothing more than "opportunity" management. But jumping straight to opportunity will have new salespeople—or veterans developing new territories—chasing their tails for the first year or two.</p> <p>As <em>Sales Hunting:</em> <em>How to Develop New Territories and Major Accounts in Half the Time Using Trust as Your Weapon</em> details, there is a significant problem you must overcome when opening up new accounts and territories. No matter what you are selling, your prospect already has a trusted relationship with an incumbent vendor and will continue to buy from that vendor even when you have the better solution. The playing field is not level—and you’re on the wrong side. So how can you compete to win?</p> <p>"Trust is the grease that makes business sales effortless," writes sales pro and trainer Dave Monty. Opportunity metrics are important, but trust—and a few sharp insider tactics Monty reveals—is the guidepost that leads to success. His sales model therefore incorporates metrics based on trust along with traditional sales measures. That is the fuel that helps you not just turn virgin territory into a consistent revenue generator, but helps you win over potential accounts that now use competitive products. </p> <p><em>Sales Hunting</em> helps you start establishing trust before you step foot in a prospect’s door, and it shows you the tactics necessary to penetrate new accounts. Once you gain access, trust can be used as systematic way to build long-lasting relationships that pay dividends well beyond that first sale you make. Among other things, this book explains:</p> <ul> <li>Why most customers don’t want to buy from you . . . <em>yet</em></li> <li>Why trust-based relationships enable you to open up territories and bag the biggest customers quickly</li> <li>How to qualify and rank customers based on traits</li> <li>How to get in step with the customer’s buying cycle</li> <li>How to establish trust-based and traditional sales metrics to guide your efforts</li> </ul> <p>With advice based on Monty’s twenty years of IT sales and sales management experience—along with principles confirmed by academic research—<em>Sales Hunting</em> is an easy-to-read book that is packed with real-life examples and prescriptions for achieving sales success. It will prove a lifesaver for any salesperson or sales manager developing a new territory or trying to penetrate new accounts.</p> <p></p>
