The Waves

sunset. The air was moist. I was in Maui, Hawaii. Everyone was yelling, screaming, hollering and having fun. Kids were flying their kites. People were eating pizza and icecream. Then suddenly, everything became quiet. Everyone was looking at me. The wave broke the silence as it jumped on me like a tackle in football. I felt like I had the ball because I kept getting tackled by the water! I was wobbling in the water and trying to find a way to get out. I was a squirmy little guy without a life…

EQ:- Eq is often used to shape the tone of a vocal track. Which meanest is often used by engineers to enhance the tone, make the tone muddy, enhance the low ends etc. In EQ the first step I would suggest is to remove the low ends. Play around with the eq to remove the rumbles in the track and make it as clean as possible before putting on any effects or compression. Use a high pass filter to remove most of the low frequencies like the background noise. Use drastic eq to find out where the…

Examining the Waves Created by the Earthquake The damage caused by the earthquake would happen as a result of the waves the earthquake produces. Earthquakes produce two types of waves: longitudinal waves (often referred to as P-waves) and transverse waves (often called S-waves). Transverse waves cause most of the damage after an earthquake…

Chapter 3 Interleaved Buck Converter System 3.1 INTRODUCTION Interleaved Buck Converter has lots of concentration due to its simple and low control complexity in application. where no isolation and high output current with low ripple. An No isolation DC/DC converter Fig.1.1 shows the step-down DC/DC converter. When switch M is on for the duration of dTs, power is transferred from source to load and filter inductor L is charged. When switch M is off for a duration (1-d)Ts, the diode D…
