description: Migrants and refugees generally experience immunization inequities compared to their host populations. Childhood vaccination coverage rates are influenced by a complex set of interrelated factors, including child and parental nativity. Coverage rates for MMR, pertussis, and HPV vaccines were compared among children born in Aotearoa New Zealand (NZ) of overseas-born parents or NZ-born parents. A nationwide retrospective cohort study was conducted using linked, de-identified data. Logistic regression models examined the most influential factors contributing to differences in timely vaccine uptake. Of the total study population who had received all scheduled vaccines (N = 760,269), 32.9% were children of migrant parents. Children of migrant parents had higher rates of complete and timely uptake for MMR, pertussis, and HPV vaccinations compared to non-migrant children. NZ-born children of migrant parents were significantly more likely to receive MMR and pertussis-containing vaccines on-time compared to those of non-migrants. All included factors, except for the child’s gender and parents’ English ability, significantly influenced vaccine uptake. Among NZ-born children of migrant parents, additional logistic modeling found significant differences based on parental duration of residence, visa group, and region of nationality. Findings point to the importance of differentiating between parent versus child nativity when examining immunization coverage. While vaccination rates were higher for NZ-born children of migrant parents, compared to non-migrant parents, timely coverage rates across both groups were below national targets. Continued efforts are needed to improve timely immunization service delivery to address suboptimal and inequitable coverage.

description: We study the Mott transition as a function of interaction strength in the half-filled Hubbard chain with next-nearest-neighbor hopping t' by calculating the response to an external electric field using the Density Matrix Renormalization Group. The electric susceptibility chi diverges when approaching the critical point from the insulating side. We show that the correlation length xi characterizing this transition is directly proportional to fluctuations of the polarization and that chi ~ xi^2. The critical behavior shows that the transition is infinite-order for all t', whether or not a spin gap is present, and that hyperscaling holds.

In this exploration, we delve into ChatGPT capacity to generate opinions on vaccine hesitancy by interrogating this AI chatbot for the 50 most prevalent counterfait messages, false and true contraindications, and myths circulating on the internet regarding vaccine safety. Our results indicate that, while the present version of ChatGPT’s default responses may be incomplete, they are generally satisfactory. Although ChatGPT cannot substitute an expert or the scientific evidence itself, this form of AI has the potential to guide users toward information that aligns well with scientific evidence.
The Impact of Political Changes within Yugoslavia regarding the change of the state position on the "Macedonian" ecclesiastical issue during 1966
Creators: name: Tsoupras, George
Publisher: name: Fragmenta Hellenoslavica
Year: 2019

description: In 1958, the “Macedonian” Orthodox Church (MOC) was declared autonomous, and the following year it was recognized as such by the Serbian Orthodox Church (SOC). Since then, ecclesiastical and political men of Skopje have made an effort to upgrade it to the level of the autocephalous Church, removing it from the jurisdiction of the SOC. An important factor in developments would be the attitude that central Yugoslav power would hold in Belgrade, which up until 1966 seemed to consider the MOC's autonomy to date as satisfactory, since the ecclesiastical unity in the country was maintained and idioprosopia of “ Macedonians” of Skopje was emphasized as well. The change in the official state attitude in the matter came after the 4th Plenum of the Yugoslav Communist Party in Brioni in July 1966. In it, Alexandar Ranović, Tito’s co-leader, was overthrown from power since he was accused of, by extremely supporting the Yugoslavian idea, gave preference to Serbian national sentiment at the expense of the other ethnicities of the country. This development was perceived by many researchers as having influenced the conversion of the state line into the Macedonian question and the support of the separatist Macedonian demands for self-healing of the MOC. In the most formal way senior politicians (such as the chairman of the local Crvenkovski party) from Skopje sought to present the MOC as a victim of Ranković's faction in order to stimulate the interest of central power and to provoke sympathy with the claim of its autochephaly. On the other hand there is the controversy, again by the highest levels of the Yugoslav political scene. Serbia's representative to the Federation, M. Radosavljević, denied all suspicions against the SOC, who wanted it to be favored by Ranković's line, and decomposed Skopje's arguments one by one. Finally, the state line turned to the MOE, which led to the imposition of its autoclassy with the Third People's Assembly in Ohrid in August 1967. The result of this choice was the condemnation of the MOC by the SOC and its severance from the Orthodox Church.

Multifractality of Brownian motion near absorbing polymers

description: We characterize the multifractal behavior of Brownian motion in the vicinity of an absorbing star polymer. We map the problem to an O(M)-symmetric phi^4-field theory relating higher moments of the Laplacian field of Brownian motion to corresponding composite operators. The resulting spectra of scaling dimensions of these operators display the convexity properties which are necessarily found for multifractal scaling but unusual for power of field operators in field theory. Using a field-theoretic renormalization group approach we obtain the multifractal spectrum for absorbtion at the core of a polymer star as an asymptotic series. We evaluate these series using resummation techniques.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Availability of adequate zooplankton prey during the larval stage is a key factor for the emergence of a strong year class. There are inconsistencies in the literature on the importance of various zooplankton prey taxa for determining Atlantic mackerel recruitment in the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence. Previous studies identified the copepod Calanus finmarchicus as the most important prey influencing recruitment of Atlantic mackerel, whereas a recent study pointed to the importance of the copepod Pseudocalanus spp. The aim of this research was to examine the influence of various assemblages of copepod preys on the feeding of larval Atlantic mackerel. Fish larvae and their zooplankton prey were sampled over a grid of 65 stations covering the entire southern Gulf of St. Lawrence in June 2008 and 2010. We pooled stations in four groups based on zooplankton species assemblages. One assemblage was dominated by the copepods Oithona spp. and Temora longicornis and the three others were dominated by different proportions of Oithona spp. and Pseudocalanus spp. Feeding selectivity of mackerel larvae was measured by comparing zooplankton prey in their gut content with zooplankton found in their environment. Surprisingly, the diet in the 3.5–5.4 mm and the >5.4 mm size class was dominated by Oithona spp. and T. longicornis. Preliminary results indicated a positive selection for Oithona spp. and T. longicornis. These results about the preferred prey of Atlantic mackerel larvae will be useful to adjust predictive models of recruitment based on copepod production for this commercial fish.

description: Heterocyclic amines (HCAs) are foodborne carcinogens for which their formation is highly dependent on cooking conditions. HCAs have been commonly quantified in food items prepared with simple procedures. This approach is suitable for elucidating HCAs’ formation, but it only partially reflects the contamination in consumed food. In the current investigation, the generation of HCAs has been investigated in fried beef items prepared with elaborated cooking recipes, and their occurrence has been compared with control beef fried without the addition of ingredients other than oil. The food recipes that included a variety of food ingredients had lower yields of mutagenic HCAs (≥47% reduction, with individual HCA levels ranging between 0.01 and 2.22 ng/g) with respect to the control beef. In contrast, the co-mutagens norharman and harman were formed generally at greater levels (up to three times the contamination in the control fried beef) in the items prepared including a greater variety of ingredients.

description: This paper presents a robust and comprehensive graph-based rank aggregation approach, used to combine results of isolated ranker models in retrieval tasks. The method follows an unsupervised scheme, which is independent of how the isolated ranks are formulated. Our approach is able to combine arbitrary models, defined in terms of different ranking criteria, such as those based on textual, image or hybrid content representations. We reformulate the ad-hoc retrieval problem as a document retrieval based on fusion graphs, which we propose as a new unified representation model capable of merging multiple ranks and expressing inter-relationships of retrieval results automatically. By doing so, we claim that the retrieval system can benefit from learning the manifold structure of datasets, thus leading to more effective results. Another contribution is that our graph-based aggregation formulation, unlike existing approaches, allows for encapsulating contextual information encoded from multiple ranks, which can be directly used for ranking, without further computations and post-processing steps over the graphs. Based on the graphs, a novel similarity retrieval score is formulated using an efficient computation of minimum common subgraphs. Finally, another benefit over existing approaches is the absence of hyperparameters. A comprehensive experimental evaluation was conducted considering diverse well-known public datasets, composed of textual, image, and multimodal documents. Performed experiments demonstrate that our method reaches top performance, yielding better effectiveness scores than state-of-the-art baseline methods and promoting large gains over the rankers being fused, thus demonstrating the successful capability of the proposal in representing queries based on a unified graph-based model of rank fusions.

description: Dynamic autocorrelations $$ (α=x,z) of an isolated impurity spin in a S=1/2 XX chain are calculated. The impurity spin, defined by a local change in the nearest-neighbor coupling, is either in the bulk or at the boundary of the open-ended chain. The exact numerical calculation of the correlations employs the Jordan-Wigner mapping from spin operators to Fermi operators; effects of finite system size can be eliminated. Two distinct temperature regimes are observed in the long-time asymptotic behavior. At T=0 only power laws are present. At high T the x correlation decays exponentially (except at short times) while the z correlation still shows an asymptotic power law (different from the one at T=0) after an intermediate exponential phase. The boundary impurity correlations follow power laws at all T. The power laws for the z correlation and the boundary correlations can be deduced from the impurity-induced changes in the properties of the Jordan-Wigner fermion states.

Innermost Stable Circular Orbit of Inspiraling Neutron-Star Binaries: Tidal Effects, Post-Newtonian Effects and the Neutron-Star Equation of State

description: We study how the neutron-star equation of state affects the onset of the dynamical instability in the equations of motion for inspiraling neutron-star binaries near coalescence. A combination of relativistic effects and Newtonian tidal effects cause the stars to begin their final, rapid, and dynamically-unstable plunge to merger when the stars are still well separated and the orbital frequency is $\approx$ 500 cycles/sec (i.e. the gravitational wave frequency is approximately 1000 Hz). The orbital frequency at which the dynamical instability occurs (i.e. the orbital frequency at the innermost stable circular orbit) shows modest sensitivity to the neutron-star equation of state (particularly the mass-radius ratio, $M/R_o$, of the stars). This suggests that information about the equation of state of nuclear matter is encoded in the gravitational waves emitted just prior to the merger.

description: Infectious diseases are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide with vaccines playing a critical role in preventing deaths. To better understand the impact of low vaccination rates and previous epidemics on infectious disease rates, and how these may help to understand the potential impacts of the current coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, a targeted literature review was conducted. Globally, studies suggest past suboptimal vaccine coverage has contributed to infectious disease outbreaks in vulnerable populations. Disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic have contributed to a decline in vaccination uptake and a reduced incidence in several infectious diseases; however, these rates have increased following the lifting of COVID-19 restrictions with modeling studies suggesting a risk of increased morbidity and mortality from several vaccine-preventable diseases. This suggests a window of opportunity to review vaccination and infectious disease control measures before we see further disease resurgence in populations and age-groups currently unaffected.

Special attention is paid to diffractive charm production, which provides information on the gluonic content of the Pomeron. Our calculations are based on the gluon distributions of the CKMT-model, which is shown to lead to agreement with the data on open charm production in deep inelastic scattering. We compare predictions for diffractive charm production of different models for the distribution of gluons in the Pomeron. Experiments at HERA should be able to discriminate between them. Predictions for beauty production in diffractive and non-diffractive interactions of photons are also given.

description: Topologically nontrivial states are common in symmetry broken phases at macroscopic scales. Low dimensional systems bring them to a microscopic level where solitons emerge as single particles. The earliest and latest applications are conducting polymers and spin-Peierls chains. After a history introduction, we shall discuss the topological aspects of elementary excitations, especially the confinement and the dimensional D crossover. At the 1D level we exploit results of different exact and approximate techniques in theory of solitons, for both quantum and semiclassical models, and the related knowledge on anomalous charges and currents. At higher D the topological requirements for the combined symmetry originate the spin- or charge- roton like excitations with charge- or spin- kinks localized in the core. In quasi 1D world they can be viewed as resulting from a spin-charge recombination due to the 3D confinement.

description: HPV vaccine uptake remains low in China, especially among girls. Recently, China has initiated a pilot program on HPV immunization for girls 9–14. From November to December 2021, a cross-sectional study was conducted among parents of girls 9–14 in China through a web-based anonymous online questionnaire survey. Descriptive epidemiological analysis was used to analyze parental acceptability. Hierarchical regression analysis and structural equation modeling were to determine associated factors. A total of 5623 participants were included in the analysis. 21.2% girls had received HPV vaccine, and 94.3% parents intended to receive vaccination for their daughters, the Kappa values between them was −0.016. 31.9% of vaccinated mothers had received HPV vaccine for their daughters, vaccination history had a positive impact on behavior (β = 0.048). Attitude (β = 0.186), subjective norms (β = 0.148) and perceived behavioral control (β = 0.648) had a positive impact on intention. Vaccination intention mediated the relationships between attitude (β = 0.044), subjective norms (β = 0.035), and perceived behavioral control (β = 0.154) with behavior. There is a gap between vaccination intention and behavior in parents of girls 9–14. Perceived behavior control had a strong association on HPV vaccination behavior.

description: The monolayer Gallium sulfide (GaS) was demonstrated as a promising two-dimensional semiconductor material with considerable band gaps. The present work investigates the band gap modulation of GaS monolayer under biaxial or uniaxial strain by using Density functional theory calculation. We found that GaS monolayer shows an indirect band gap that limits its optical applications. The results show that GaS monolayer has a sizable band gap. The uniaxial strain shifts band gap from indirect to direct in Gallium monochalcogenides (GaS). This behavior, allowing applications such as electroluminescent devices and laser. The detailed reasons for the band gap modulation are also discussed by analyzing the projected density of states (PDOS). It indicates that due to the role of p$_y$ orbital through uniaxial strain become more significant than others near the Fermi level. The indirect to direct band gap transition happen at $\varepsilon$=-10y$\%$. Moreover, by investigating the strain energy and transverse response of structures under uniaxial strain, we show that the GaS monolayer has the Poisson's ratio of 0.23 and 0.24 in the zigzag (x) and armchair (y) directions, respectively. Thus, we conclude that the isotropic nature of mechanical properties under strain.

Discourse Motivations for the Use of the Perfect in Modern Greek
Creators: name: Psaltou-Joycey, Angeliki
Publisher: name: Selected papers on theoretical and applied linguistics
Year: 1992

description: One of the main characteristics of the Perfect is to convey the notion of ‘current relevance’, that is, to bring states of affairs into the current situation by relating them to a particular time of reference (i.e. the moment of speech – MOS). However, although the temporal specifications of the Modern Greek Perfect (i.e. its association with the MOS) allow it to convey the notion of 'current relevance', this notion primarily exhibits discourse-pragmatic features and, by accompanying the Perfect as a conventional implicature, it contributes to the ability of the Perfect to be used by the speaker also whenever he/she wishes to express subjective judgements concerning the relevance or relatedness of a situation to the MOS. In my paper, I discuss some contexts in which selection of the Perfect by the speaker signals his/her communicative intentions on the immediate speech situation and also defines the general frame for the hearer to carry out his/her inferential processes as to what is relevant and in what way to the 'here-and-now' of the context of discourse.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.We analysed the ichthyoplankton database of the ʺBIORʺ institute separately for the five regions of the Baltic Sea: Bornholm Basin, Gdańsk Deep and the southern, central, and northern parts of the Gotland Basin, starting from the year 1973. Abundances of the eggs and larvae of Baltic sprat (Sprattus sprattus balticus Schneider) at different periods of time, coefficients of variation, and the time of spawning in the regions over large depths were taken into account, as well as different hydrometeorological data and the abundance of the main mesozooplankton species. Our analyses led us to a conclusion that the strength of year class of Baltic sprat was determined mainly at the stages of larvae and juvenile, and was a result of several varying factors. Analyses of correlations revealed that most of the predictors could not be used alone for the prediction of year‐class strength. Using them in a complex gave better results. Temperature and wind regime influenced the strength of year class strongly. Maternal effect and the time of spawning were not statistically significant for the success of year class.

description: In healthcare, patient risk stratification models are often learned using time-series data extracted from electronic health records. When extracting data for a clinical prediction task, several formulations exist, depending on how one chooses the time of prediction and the prediction horizon. In this paper, we show how the formulation can greatly impact both model performance and clinical utility. Leveraging a publicly available ICU dataset, we consider two clinical prediction tasks: in-hospital mortality, and hypokalemia. Through these case studies, we demonstrate the necessity of evaluating models using an outcome-independent reference point, since choosing the time of prediction relative to the event can result in unrealistic performance. Further, an outcome-independent scheme outperforms an outcome-dependent scheme on both tasks (In-Hospital Mortality AUROC .882 vs. .831; Serum Potassium: AUROC .829 vs. .740) when evaluated on test sets that mimic real-world use.

The appearance of coordinate shocks in hyperbolic formalisms of General Realtivity

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: I consider the appearance of shocks in hyperbolic formalisms of General Relativity. I study the particular case of the Bona-Masso formalism with zero shift vector and show how shocks associated with two families of characteristic fields can develop. These shocks do not represent discontinuities in the geometry of spacetime, but rather regions where the coordinate system becomes pathological. For this reason I call them coordinate shocks. I show how one family of shocks can be eliminated by restricting the Bona-Masso slicing condition to a special case. The other family of shocks, however, can not be eliminated even in the case of harmonic slicing. I also show the results of numerical simulations in the special cases of a flat two-dimensional spacetime, a flat four-dimensional spacetime with a spherically symmetric slicing, and a spherically symmetric black hole spacetime. In all three cases coordinate shocks readily develop, confirming the predictions of the mathematical analysis. Although here I concentrate in the Bona-Masso formalism, the phenomena of coordinate shocks should arise in any other hyperbolic formalism. In particular, since the appearance of the shocks is determined by the choice of gauge, the results presented here imply that in any formalism the use of a harmonic slicing can generate shocks.

Periphrastic Verbs in Modern Greek as a Means of Functional Sentence Perspective
Creators: name: Skenderis, Theodoros
Publisher: name: Selected papers on theoretical and applied linguistics
Year: 1992

description: The central point in the theory of Functional Sentence Perspective (FSP) is that sentences do not only convey facts, but do so in the perspective of the context that surrounds them and in conformity with the information which has already been presented or which can be inferred from context. This organisation of the information content of sentences in terms of “given” and “new” determines their “communicative dynamism” (CD). Inquiries have been made into the role played by FSP in determining grammatical phenomena, and it has been shown that languages have resource to various means in order to reconcile the requirements of FSP with those of grammatical structure. In this study, I concentrate on the issue on CD and, by way of intuition and data from language in use, I try to investigate the extent to which periphrastic verbs constitute a means for the fulfilment of FSP requirements.

Spin dynamics simulation of the three-dimensional XY model: Structure factor and transport properties
Creators: name: Krech, M.
name: Landau, D. P.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1999
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We present extensive Monte-Carlo spin dynamics simulations of the classical XY model in three dimensions on a simple cubic lattice with periodic boundary conditions. A recently developed efficient integration algorithm for the equations of motion is used, which allows a substantial improvement of statistics and large integration times. We find spin wave peaks in a wide range around the critical point and spin diffusion for all temperatures. At the critical point we find evidence for a violation of dynamic scaling in the sense that independent components of the dynamic structure factor S(q,w) require different dynamic exponents in order to obtain scaling. Below the critical point we investigate the dispersion relation of the spin waves and the linewidths of S(q,w) and find agreement with mode coupling theory. Apart from strong spin wave peaks we observe additional peaks in S(q,w) which can be attributed to two-spin wave interactions. The overall lineshapes are also discussed and compared to mode coupling predictions. Finally, we present first results for the transport coefficient D(q,w) of the out-of-plane magnetization component at the critical point, which is related to the thermal conductivity of He4 near the superfluid-normal transition.

Texture in Translation: Thematic aspects of English and Greek Texts
Creators: name: Goutsos, Dionysis
Publisher: name: Selected papers on theoretical and applied linguistics
Year: 1992

description: The effects of translation on thematic aspects of text structure are examined by comparing an English expository text to its rendering into Greek by five different translators. Divergence among the texts is found in punctuation, the placement of adjuncts and clause word order. It is argued that textual considerations motivate the translators’ choices and a tentative model is proposed in order to describe the process of translation.

description: In response to escalating cases of serogroup W (MenW) invasive meningococcal disease (IMD), multiple countries introduced quadrivalent conjugate MenACWY vaccines into their national immunization programs (NIPs). Here, we summarize the real-world impact and vaccine effectiveness (VE) data of MenACWY-TT from Chile, England, the Netherlands, and Australia. Incidence rate reductions (IRRs) and VE from baseline to post-NIP period were extracted from publications or calculated. After the administration of a single dose of MenACWY-TT, substantial IRRs of MenCWY were observed across the countries in vaccine-eligible age groups (83%-85%) and via indirect protection in non-vaccine-eligible age groups (45%-53%). The impact of MenACWY-TT was primarily driven by MenW IRRs, as seen in vaccine-eligible age groups (65%-92%) and non-vaccine-eligible age groups (41%-57%). VE against MenW was reported in vaccine-eligible toddlers (92%) in the Netherlands and in vaccine-eligible adolescents/young adults (94%) in England. These real-world data support the implementation and continued use of MenACWY-TT in NIPs.

description: Cancer immunotherapy has been gradually introduced and has undergone noteworthy developments in recent years. The number of scientific publications has been expanding, and the progression in this field has been rapidly evolving with time. This study aimed to use bibliometric analysis to examine the past 20 years of research on cancer immunotherapy and identify future hotspots. A literature search for medical publications on immunotherapy in cancer from 2000 to 2021 was conducted in the Web of Science Core Collection on March 1, 2022. Visualization analysis was performed using VOSviewer software (version 1.6.16). From 2000 to 2021, a total of 18,778 publications were retrieved. Annual publication output grew rapidly from 366 in 2000 to 3,194 in 2021. The USA issued the largest number of publications (n = 6,739, 35.89%), with the University of Texas System making the largest contribution (n = 802, 4.27%). A total of 976 meaningful topics were identified and further classified into 4 different clusters (immune mechanism, cancer biology, immunotherapy and clinical trials). The most common research topics included ‘expression’, ‘chemotherapy’, ‘dendritic cells’, ‘pembrolizumab’ and ‘open-label’. Highly identified cancer types included hepatocellular, bladder, breast and lung cancer. A shift in popularity from mechanism research to clinical trials was observed, indicating that clinical application would be the center of attention in the future. Attention has been given to the field of cancer immunotherapy, and this trend will continue in the future. This study provides an unbiased visualization analysis on this topic in a scale-efficient manner for further research.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Juvenile jack mackerel (Trachurus japonicus) change habitats from surface to bottom layers during the early juvenile stage; however the recruitment processes to the demersal layer remain unclear in the shelf break region of the East China Sea. We examined the growth patterns of prerecruits in surface layers in April and recruited juveniles in bottom layers in May–June using otolith microstructure in two year classes with contrasting abundances: low in 2005 and high in 2009 in the East China Sea. Prerecruits had a slower growth rate during the larval stage than did recruited juveniles in 2005, whereas prerecruits in 2009 had a comparable growth patterns during the larval stage with recruited juveniles. This indicates that selection depending on the larval growth rate acted more strongly in 2005 than in 2009. Growth rate during the transforming stage from larval to juvenile morphs for the prerecruits was significantly slower than that of the recruited juveniles in both survey years. Thus, T. japonicus with a faster growth rate throughout the larval and early juvenile stages had a higher probability of successful recruitment to the demersal habitat than did those with a slower growth rate. Higher food availability and wider favourable temperature area resulted in a faster growth rate in 2009 than in 2005. Hence, growth rate during the early life stages of T. japonicus might be a critical determinant of recruitment abundance to the demersal habitat in the East China Sea.

description: Τα φωτοβολταϊκά συστήματα θεωρούνται ευρέως ως εναλλακτική επιλογή έναντι των συμβατικών μονάδων παραγωγής ενέργειας. Ένα φωτοβολταϊκό σύστημα αποτελείται από φωτοβολταϊκά πλαίσια συνδεδεμένα σε διάφορες συνδεσμολογίες (σε σειρά, παράλληλα ή σε συνδυασμό των δύο), τα οποία με τη σειρά τους σχηματίζουν μια φωτοβολταϊκή συστοιχία. Όταν οι φωτοβολταϊκές συστοιχίες λειτουργούν υπό συνθήκες μερικής σκίασης εμφανίζονται απώλειες σε ισχύ. Για να αντιμετωπιστεί αυτή η μείωση ισχύος απαιτούνται τόσο η χρήση ηλεκτρονικών μετατροπέων ισχύος με υψηλό βαθμό απόδοσης, όσο και κατάλληλα ηλεκτρονικά συστήματα ελέγχου αυτών των μετατροπέων ισχύος. Αντικείμενο της παρούσας διπλωματικής εργασίας είναι η ανάπτυξη ενός ηλεκτρονικού συστήματος που ρυθμίζει την παραγόμενη ισχύ φωτοβολταϊκών συστοιχιών. Το σύστημα αποτελείται από έναν μετατροπέα DC/DC ανύψωσης τάσης που λειτουργεί σε ασυνεχή αγωγή ρεύματος και ένα σύστημα ελέγχου βασισμένο σε FPGA το οποίο αναπτύχθηκε με τη χρήση της γλώσσας περιγραφής υλικού VHDL. Η λειτουργία του συστήματος ελέγχου βασίζεται σε μια νέα μέθοδο ανίχνευσης του σημείου μέγιστης ισχύος φωτοβολταϊκών συστοιχιών (Maximum Power Point Tracking, MPPT) με την οποία ο ηλεκτρονικός μετατροπέας ανύψωσης τάσης ελέγχεται με τέτοιο τρόπο ώστε να συμπεριφέρεται ως ένα φορτίο το οποίο απορροφά σταθερή και προγραμματιζόμενη ισχύ από την φωτοβολταϊκή συστοιχία στην είσοδό του. Αναπτύχθηκε πειραματικό πρωτότυπο φωτοβολταϊκό σύστημα και τα πειραματικά αποτελέσματα έδειξαν ότι με την μέθοδο ελέγχου που υλοποιήθηκε, εξασφαλίζεται η σύγκλιση στο ολικό μέγιστο σημείο παραγωγής ισχύος της φωτοβολταϊκής συστοιχίας ακόμα και σε συνθήκες μερικής σκίασης της.
