English Phonetics: Elision, Liaison, Gemination, and More
ELISION
It is the omission of a sound under certain conditions in colloquial speech. Under certain circumstances sounds disappear. Elision is typical of rapid, casual speech.
- A syllable containing the unstressed ‘schwa’. similar
- With / t / and / d /, especially when they appear in a consonant cluster (CCC).
- With the / h / in connected rapid speech or in auxiliaries of past modals verbs.
- In clusters of three or even fours elements.
SYLLABICATION
It is the elision of a vowel sound (generally ) of an unstressed

Three-Phase Electric Power
- Single-Phase System: Two wires (phase and neutral) carry current.
- Three-Phase System: Three wires carry AC voltages, making it more economical than a single-phase system.
Star (Y) and Delta (Δ) Connections
Star Connection:
- Structure: 4 wires (3 phases, 1 neutral).
- Voltage: Each winding receives 230V.
- Applications: Power transmission for longer distances, requires less starting current.
- Insulation: Less insulation is needed due to different line and phase voltages (VL = √3 VP)
Digital Modulation Techniques: BPSK, QPSK, Pulse Shaping, and Eye Diagrams
BPSK
Python Implementation of BPSK Modulation
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
# Parameters
message_frequency = 10
carrier_frequency = 20
sampling_frequency = 30 * carrier_frequency
duration = 4 / carrier_frequency
# Time vector
t = np.arange(0, duration, 1 / sampling_frequency)
# Message signal
message = np.sign(np.cos(2 * np.pi * message_frequency * t) + np.random.normal(scale=0.01, size=len(t)))
# Carrier signal
carrier = np.cos(2 * np.pi * carrier_frequency * t)
# BPSK modulated signal

. Noise Figure (NF): In communications, the Noise
Figure of a system or component, such as an amplifier or receiver, is crucial as it quantifies how much noise is added to the signal as it passes through. A lower noise figure indicates a better performance because it means less noise is introduced, thereby preserving the quality of the received signal. It is important in the design and analysis of communication systems to ensure high signal integrity. 2.

Core and Shell Construction (Building Construction)
Core Construction:
Definition: The core construction method involves creating a central core within a building, which houses the primary structural and service elements.
Components: Includes stairwells, elevators, restrooms, and mechanical spaces.
Benefits: Provides stability and strength to the building, allows for open and flexible floor spaces.
Shell Construction:
Definition: The shell construction method refers to the outer building envelope, including
