Hanna H Clemson University na an Hofstede 2 Abstract Hofstede’s model (1980) has been used widely in research in the past two decades. The culture-based model consists of four dimensions: power distance‚ uncertainty avoidance‚ individualism-collectivism‚ and masculinity-femininity. Each of these

another is in order to reduce the transmission and distribution losses. This concept is known as Microwave Power transmission (MPT). This paper is mainly concentrated on : i) The most popular concept known as Tesla Theory‚ ii) The microwave power transmission(MPT) called Solar power satellite‚ and iii) The highly efficient fiber lasers for wireless power transmission. The output microwave power ranges from 50 W to 200 W at 2.45 GHz. KEYWORDS: Microwave Power transmission (MPT)‚ Nikola Tesla‚ Rectenna

Neural & Synaptic Transmission The nervous system is made up of neurons and glila cells. Neurons are the basic communication links in the nervous system. Glila cell provide support for neurons and contribute to communication. Neurons normally transmit a neural impulse (an electric current) along an axon to a synapse with another neuron. The neural impulse is a brief change in neuron’s electrical charge that moves along an axon. It is an all-or-none event. Action potential triggers

ABSTRACT: Transmission or distribution of 5o Hz or 60 Hz electrical energy from the generating point to the consumers’ end without any physical wire has yet to as a familiar and viable technology. This paper focuses on the past and future possible advancements in WPT and explaining why it has still not come into practical utility. Wireless energy transfer has been around for about a century‚ but as of yet has only found usage in things like electric toothbrush rechargers and specialty applications

THE CHANNELS OF MONETARY TRANSMISSION The monetary transmission mechanism is the channels through which the monetary target works and it describes the mechanisms through which the monetary policy actions of the central bank impact on the ultimate objective of inflation and output. Miskhin (1995) usefully describes the various channels through which monetary policy action as summarized by changes in either the nominal money stock or the short term nominal interest rate‚ impact real variables such

Automatic transmission modes[edit] Conventionally‚ in order to select the transmission operating mode‚ the driver moves a selection lever located either on the steering column or on the floor (as with a manual on the floor‚ except that most automatic selectors on the floor do not move in the same type of pattern as a manual lever; most automatic levers only move vertically). In order to select modes‚ or to manually select specific gear ratios‚ the driver must push a button in (called the shift lock
