The Brown Boveri Symposia are by now part of a firm!ly established
tradition. This is the ninth event in a series which was initiated
shortly after Corporate Research was created as a separate entity
within our Company; the Symposia are held every other year. The
themes to date have been: 1969 Flow Research on Blading 1971
Real-Time Control of Electric Power Systems 1973 High-Temperature
Materials in Gas Turbines 1975 Nonemissive Electrooptic Displays
1977 Current Interruption in High-Voltage Networks 1979 Surges in
High-Voltage Networks 1981 Semiconductor Devices for Power
Conditionling 1983 Corrosion in Power Generating Equipment 1985
Computer Systems for Process Control Why have we chosen these
topics? At the outset we established certain selection criteria; we
felt that a subject for a symposium should fulfill the following
three requirements: It should characterize a part of a thoroughly
scientific discipline; in other words it should describe an area of
scholarly study and research. r - It should be of current interest
in the sense that important results have recently been obtained and
considerable research effort is presently underway in the
international scientific community. - It should bear some relation
to the scientific and technological activity of our Company. Let us
look at the requirement "current interest": Some of the topics on
the list above have been the subject of research for several
decades, some even from the - v vi FOREWORD ginning of the century.
