متن کاملn-Opposition theory to structure debates
2007 was the first international congress on the “square of oppositions”.

Our proposal for this paper is to define relations between arguments through a structure of opposition (square of oppositions is one structure of opposition). We will be trying to answer the...
متن کاملMultilevel PWM Waveform Decomposition and Phase-Shifted Carrier Technique
Multilevel PWM waveforms can be decomposed into several multilevel PWM components. Phase-shifted carrier (PSC) is an efficient decomposition technique. In this paper, we have first demonstrated the equality of PSC and alternative phase opposition disposition techniques. Second, we have modified PSC to accommodate other disposition techniques. Third, we have investigated the effects of using...
