Writers' libraries and vestigial notes as cultural heritage: minding the gaps in the material record by Van Hulle, D

“…Paying special attention to the risks of implicit material bias, the essay develops an analogy with André Malraux's musée imaginaire. Its two-part structure focuses first on (a teleological and a dysteleological approach to) vestigial notes, followed by the second part on methods of reconstructing writers' libraries (both extant and virtual).…”

Laddered multilevel inverters used in solar panel system by Chen, Junyan

“…The output waveform can be easily observed and the harmonic contents are illustrated by using the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). To get the least total harmonic distortion, Matlab software is used to calculate the best firing angles.…”
