1. Introduction to Power Engineering 1.1 Power System Functions The traditional power system is arranged as a hierarchy. Generators feed into a high voltage transmission system that facilitates bulk transfers of power over large distances. Connected to the transmission system are medium voltage distribution networks that take power from grid supply points and deliver it to the customers who are supplied a low voltage. For a lot of its history‚ the electricity supply industry has operated as

Greek and Roman architecture has produced some of the most iconic images in history. While the Romans borrowed and adapted the Greek style‚ both groups showed how to use their structural creations to define their own ideals. The Greeks developed three styles: Doric‚ Ionic and Corinthian. The main styles of Greek architecture are ionic and Doric. The Doric style subjugated in most of Greece and in Italy. The Doric styles are the more formal of the two‚ with the ionic style being more decorative and

The Roman military technology ranged from personal equipment and armament to deadly siege engines. [ They inherited almost all ancient weapons. While heavy‚ intricate armor was not uncommon (cataphracts)‚ the Romans perfected a relatively light‚ full torso armour made of segmented plates (lorica segmentata). This segmented armour provided good protection for vital areas‚ but did not cover as much of the body as lorica hamata or chainmail. The lorica segmentata provided better protection‚ but the
