    The Long Fuse

    In Laurence Lafore's book titled The Long Fuse he discusses the conflicts of World War I and describes how Austria-Hungary was considered to be the "Second Sick Man of Europe". During a time when Europe seemed to be moving faster towards progressive ideas and towards the sweeping away of old institutes, Turkey was the original Sick Man of Europe, mostly caused constitutional and national problems. The European order was based upon the assumption of nations in 1871, a kind of mutual protection, and as Austria was not a nation, it was in line after Turkey to become the second Sick Man of Europe. The term "Sick Man", in referring to a nation, according to Laurence Lafore, would be in circumstances that could lead to a type of national failure. Austria-Hungry was on a path to destruction for multiple reasons, one being that their constitution was shared between two countries, which led to slow and indecisive results. All of the Powers were based upon a foundation of nationality, but to this, Austria-Hungry was the exception. This Habsburg Monarchy, which was a Dual Monarchy, also consisted entirely of minorities. It was harder to inaugurate new or important policies in Austria-Hungry, or take action at time of crisis. In Hungary, the evolution was toward an oppressive control of Magyars; in Austria, toward quarrels, confusion, and mounting demands among nationalities (pg. 63).…

    Rectifiers

    Rectifiers

    A rectifier is an electrical device that converts alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC) and the process is known as rectification. Rectifiers have many uses including as components of power supplies and as detectors of radio signals. Rectifiers may be made of solid state diodes, vacuum tube diodes, mercury arc valves, and other components. When only one diode is used to rectify AC (by blocking the negative or positive portion of the waveform), the difference between the term diode and the term rectifier is merely one of usage, i.e., the term rectifier describes a diode that is being used to convert AC to DC. Almost all rectifiers comprise a number of diodes in a specific arrangement for more efficiently converting AC to DC than is possible with only one diode. Rectifiers are broadly classified into three categories based on their type of rectification viz. half wave rectifier, full wave rectifier, and bridge rectifiers. In half wave rectification, either the positive or negative half of the AC wave is passed, while the other half is blocked. Because only one half of the input waveform reaches the output, it is very inefficient if used for power transfer. Half-wave rectification can be achieved with a single diode in a one-phase supply, or with three diodes in a three-phase supply. A full-wave rectifier converts the whole of the input waveform to one of constant polarity (positive or negative) at its output. Full-wave rectification converts both polarities of the input waveform to DC (direct current), and is more efficient. However, in a circuit with a non-centre tapped transformer, four diodes are required instead of the one needed for halfwave rectification. Four diodes arranged this way are called a diode bridge or bridge rectifier. An aspect of most rectification is a loss from the peak input voltage to the peak output voltage, caused by the built-in voltage drop across the diodes (around 0.7 V for ordinary silicon p-n-junction…
